Sapphire Shores, Mid-Century-Modern Ranch on Bay Shore Road. This three-bed, two and one-half bath house has been so meticulously updated you only need to unpack and begin enjoying the Florida Lifestyle. All the heavy lifting has been done including impact resistant windows, new Air Conditioning, solar panels, Tesla Power Walls and a cement tile, hip roof. A large, covered patio overlooks the lanai with a heated saltwater pool and a 44 jet, Joli Vita Spa hot tub for those cooler evenings. The garage, with a whisper quiet, hurricane rated door has finished floors and a separate air conditioning system. Most recently this space has been used for a workshop and art studio with plenty of room for your vehicles. Inside, there is new white oak flooring throughout this open, split plan. The centrally located kitchen with granite counters, breakfast bar and a gas range may be the hub of activity while family and friends enjoy a living room anchored by a fireplace, a separate dining room which opens to the lanai and large passthrough windows with a serving counter for al-fresco dining and entertaining on the patio. The separate owner’s suite has walk in closets, private access to the courtyard garden and a luxurious bath with a clawfoot tub, dual vanities, and a walk-in shower. This property also has a large, interior laundry and “office nook” should additional workspace be needed. The list of features and updates is extensive and can be viewed on our 4810 Bay Shore Road Features List attachment. Here you will find specifics on the whole house water purification system, recessed & directional art lighting, ADT security system, landscape irrigation and more. All this on an oversized, pet ready corner lot NOT in the flood zone with long views in every direction. Western exposure guarantees a “sunset spectacular” almost every evening of the year from the comfort of your living room and front gardens. The nearby Sun Circle Park is a wonderful place to walk along the waterfront and enjoy views over Sarasota Bay and Longboat Key. It will only take you minutes to launch kayaks and boards for a paddle among the dolphin and manatee. It’s all about being in Florida and enjoying the indoor/outdoor lifestyle in this highly desirable Sarasota neighborhood. Live here amidst Sarasota’s most significant cultural & educational institutions and you’re only 2 miles north of downtown Sarasota, a 12-minute drive to St. Armands Circle and the beaches of Lido and Longboat Key and an equal distance to University Parkway anchored on the west by SRQ International Airport and the UTC shopping district and I75 on the east.
