Description of Property
This home truly has it all - space, privacy, layout made for everyday living and entertaining! This is a rare opportunity to own a private, estate-sized home on over an acre in Sarasota—quietly tucked inside the gated community of Beneva Oaks at the end of a cul-de-sac. Set back from the road and surrounded by towering oak trees, the property offers a sense of peace, space, and privacy that makes it easy to feel at home the moment you arrive. Built in 1980 by a professional builder for his own family, the home was intentionally created to fully enjoy the beauty, shade, and tranquility of the property—something that can be felt throughout the home. With more than 5,200 square feet of living space, the interior offers a versatile layout designed to bring people together while still allowing room to spread out. A welcoming foyer with a graceful spiral staircase sets the tone, opening to multiple living areas ideal for hosting holidays, celebrating milestones, or enjoying everyday moments with family. The formal dining room provides a beautiful setting for special gatherings, while the eat-in kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring double ovens, a separate Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, and views of the lush backyard. The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with a sitting area and a renovated spa-style bathroom with a freestanding soaking tub and custom walk-in shower. A first-floor office with custom built-ins and surround sound adds flexibility for working from home or creative use. Upstairs, four additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a flexible bonus space provide extra room for guests or hobbies. Three bedrooms open onto a screened balcony, while an additional open balcony invites quiet moments to unwind and take in the surrounding greenery. Outdoor living is an extension of the home itself, with a screened lanai, resurfaced saltwater pool, Trex decking, and paver walkways creating a setting for both entertaining and everyday relaxation. The backyard is bordered by city-owned green space beyond the rear wall, enhancing privacy and reinforcing the feeling of a natural retreat. Thoughtful updates throughout include new flooring, renovated bathrooms, four zoned air-conditioning systems, tankless water heaters, updated irrigation with a private well, a replaced septic system, a newer roof, and maintained fencing. A circular driveway and three-car side-entry garage completes the property Thoughtfully designed, surrounded by nature, and brimming with comfort…your new home awaits!
