May your journey always lead you home to a place of sustenance, invitation, and welcome. Nestled on a quiet street, on .70 acres surrounded by lush vegetation, within the heart of Old Englewood, just that place, your 'paradise found,' awaits. True to its moniker, 'Manasotaville,' this cozy retreat evokes a sense of nostalgia in all who enter with its undeniable 'Old Florida' charm and cheery nod to its 'Old Englewood' roots. It is a calm oasis where owners can relax after a sun-kissed day on Englewood Beach. Open the door to this cozy coastal cottage, built in a classic A-Frame style, and find a floor plan that is light, airy, and washed in sunlight. The cottage's kitchen, living, and dining areas are conducive to a casual, laid-back way of life, with a hand-crafted stone fireplace as a focal point in the living room and jalousie windows to capture Florida's balmy breezes. The home's updated kitchen offers on-trend cabinetry accentuated with quartz countertops, while timeless cedar paneling and beams pay homage to the home's 'Old Florida' origins. 'Wood-plank' luxury vinyl flooring has been incorporated on the first floor, resulting in seamless room transitions. The home's three bedrooms and three bathrooms allow ample privacy for guests and owners. Steps outside the door, a whimsical footbridge leads to a gazebo that provides an all-season style and is where fuss-free furniture is easily arranged to encourage leisurely conversation and relaxation, creating an undeniably resort-style vibe while simultaneously capturing the essence of al fresco living. A sandstone path will take you to a private pool just beyond. The enchanting (and air-conditioned) 'art gallery' building offers a bathroom and could be utilized as an in-law suite, a home gym, or an art studio--the choice is yours. This charming home is within a short drive of the pristine beaches on Manasota Key and its various dining establishments. Nearby, the lively and historic Dearborn Street, its myriad unique shops, excellent eateries, and a lovely outdoor amphitheater await. Residents and visitors regularly delight in fresh produce and unique offerings while visiting Dearborn Street's expansive farmer's markets. This happy home is filled with moments captured in time and is the perfect setting for creating your picture-perfect memories.
