Property Description

One of the largest homes in Bay Oaks Estates, this 5-bed, 2.5-bath single-story pool retreat delivers the best of indoor-outdoor Florida living with flexible spaces for guests, work, and play. Curb appeal pops with a brick paver circular drive, lush landscaping, and a covered, columned entry with French double doors and an arched transom. Inside, high ceilings and an abundance of natural light set a welcoming tone. The formal living and dining rooms flow to the heart of the home – a well-appointed kitchen designed for everyday living and entertaining, featuring granite counters, tile backsplash, stainless appliances, a center island with raised breakfast bar, closet pantry, built-in desk and wine rack, recessed & pendant lighting, and a picturesque breakfast nook with wraparound windows. The kitchen opens to the spacious family room with a tray ceiling and mirrored media niche. A pocketing three-panel slider seamlessly extends the living space to the covered lanai and screened pool; additional sliders from the formal living room, the primary suite, and a secondary bedroom maintain the indoor–outdoor connection. Out back, the lanai enjoys a private, tranquil, tree-lined backdrop, overlooking a curved, free-form pool with twin arc fountain jets, a raised sun terrace for lounging, and generous space to relax or gather. A screen door leads to the lawn and a separate pergola patio with power – perfect for morning coffee or an evening grill. From the backyard you have direct access to the Legacy Trail, the popular paved, multi-use path linking Sarasota and Venice, for miles of biking and walking through nature. The private primary retreat offers lanai access, two closets (one walk-in), and a spa-like en-suite bath with a Jacuzzi jetted soaking tub framed by an arched window with plantation shutters, separate walk-in shower with wall body sprays, a long double vanity, and a private water closet. Thoughtful split-bedroom design places three secondary bedrooms and a full bath together in their own wing (one is oversized with lanai access that can flex as a game/media space), while a full 5th bedroom – currently used as an office – sits near the primary suite. An interior laundry room adds storage shelves, cabinets, and a utility sink. Major updates for peace of mind include: replumbed water lines, roof (2015), A/C (2019), new water heater (2024), new pool pump (2024), kitchen appliances (2021), washer and dryer (2023), polycarbonate storm panels, and irrigation. All in a well-kept, low-fee, pet-friendly Osprey community conveniently located just minutes from top-rated schools, including the prestigious Pine View School, and close to the Gulf beaches of world-renowned Siesta Key, Nokomis, and Venice, as well as Oscar Scherer State Park, and a variety of shopping, dining, entertainment, and everyday conveniences; the Gulf Coast lifestyle at its finest.
