8492 IDLEWOOD COURT, LAKEWOOD RANCH, FL 34202
What's special
Virtually Staged. Searching for a long-term rental investment, a home that you can have equity in on day one or a home in a great location that you can reimagine into your dream home? Then you need to see 8492 Idlewood Ct. The big-ticket updates are already done, including a NEW ROOF, NEWER HVAC system, and recent EXTERIOR PAINT. Located in the gated, maintenance-free community of The Cove at Edgewater Village, this home offers nearly 1,700 square feet of living space, a private homesite with no immediate rear neighbors, and a lifestyle that's hard to duplicate at this price point. Inside, the home is ready for you to make the interior your own. The flexible floor plan includes a third bedroom that can easily function as a home office, guest room, library, or hobby space. Soaring 11-foot ceilings and large sliding glass doors bring abundant natural light into the main living areas, while the kitchen connects to both a breakfast area and separate dining space. This is an opportunity to get into an established Lakewood Ranch community, enjoy the location and amenities, and make the interior your own. Step outside to the oversized screened lanai, where the private setting becomes the star. With hookups for an outdoor kitchen and peaceful natural views beyond the home, it's an ideal space for morning coffee, entertaining, or relaxing at the end of the day. And then there's the Edgewater Village lifestyle. Residents of The Cove enjoy a heated community pool and spa, walking trails, a fishing pier, lakeside gazebo, and access to beautiful 160-acre Lake Uihlein, where residents can fish, kayak, canoe, or simply enjoy being outdoors. The location is equally appealing, with Lakewood Ranch Main Street just a short bike ride or walk away to restaurants, shopping, live music, farmers markets, and community events. Convenient to I-75, UTC, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, downtown Sarasota, and Gulf Coast beaches.
