This meticulously updated 2,319-square-foot residence, at 1231 South Orange Avenue, offers a seamless blend of classic craftsmanship and modern convenience.

Featuring four spacious bedrooms and three baths, this home is ideal for those seeking a combination of comfort and style. As you step through the expansive front porch, the airy living room immediately impresses with its two-story vaulted ceiling, complete with an oversized fan and two skylights that flood the space with natural light. The adjoining dining area features oak wood floors and a unique elevated ledge for displaying artwork or cherished items. The professionally designed kitchen, recently remodeled, is a standout feature, boasting white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, full ventilation and high-end appliances including a KitchenAid oven, microwave and dishwasher. Thoughtful details such as soft-close drawers, a banquette with hidden storage, and custom lighting make this space functional and beautiful. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the den/family room, which includes a cozy wood-burning fireplace and easy access to the beautifully landscaped backyard. The outdoor space is a highlight, with a park-like setting, a brick patio and an outdoor shower for added convenience. Each bedroom opens onto a private balcony or patio, providing the ideal space to enjoy Florida’s warm climate. The second level, accessible via a custom circular stairwell, features a spacious owner’s retreat with dual walk-in closets and a private balcony offering views of Sarasota Bay, ideal for watching Fourth of July fireworks. The main bath has been tastefully updated with a large shower, double sinks and a skylight that brings in natural light. Additional amenities include a detached garage with attic storage. The home’s double-pane windows and 3M protective coating ensure peace and quiet, shielding the home from outside noise.
