Imagine beginning your mornings with the sun rising over the rolling slopes of the IMG golf course, its fairways framed by bottlebrush trees swaying in the breeze. From your Florida room or lanai, you sip coffee while watching golfers tee off and birds glide across the pond a tranquil start that sets the tone for the day. Your private courtyard, bursting with colorful Florida flora, becomes a natural extension of your living space. Its where you welcome friends for casual gatherings, or simply pause to enjoy the vibrant blooms before stepping inside. The open floor plan ensures that whether youre preparing breakfast in the updated kitchen or lounging in the living room, the view of the course and pond is always within sight. Cooking feels effortless in a kitchen designed for both beauty and function: granite counters, stainless appliances, and cottage-style cabinetry create a warm, inviting atmosphere. With the seamless connection to dining and living areas, entertaining flows naturally guests can mingle indoors while others drift out to the lanai or Florida room, all while staying connected to the scenery outside. The dual primary suite layout offers flexibility and privacy. One suite opens to the Florida room, perfect for quiet evenings with a book and a glass of wine, while the other connects to the courtyard, ideal for enjoying fresh air before bed. Each suite, with its walk-in closets and plush carpeting, feels like a retreat tailored to comfort. Afternoons invite you to stroll to the community pool and spa, where travertine and paver accents create a resort-style setting. Whether youre lounging on a chaise with a novel or sharing conversation with neighbors, its a space that blends relaxation with community. Evenings bring endless options: a short walk to the IMG Golf Club for dinner overlooking Sarasota Bay, or a quick drive to St. Armands Circle for boutique shopping and fine dining. Weekends might mean beach days on Anna Maria Island, cultural outings to the Ringling Museum or Asolo Theater, or cheering at polo matches and rowing competitions. Life here is about balance the serenity of your home paired with the vibrancy of Sarasota and Manatee Counties. Its a place where every day feels like a vacation, yet every comfort of home is at your fingertips. Bring Fido along as this section is pet friendly.
