Perfect property for living, working and playing. This wonderful family residence has had many businesses run out of it over the years, from accounting to construction. With our Covid world the way it is, this is a prime piece of Florida paradise that affords you the privacy necessary to "quarantine" away from the public while still working. And, best of all, so much beautiful Florida nature to enjoy when you need a few minutes away from it all to enjoy the outdoors, again without having to come in contact with the outside world. The sun glistens off of the incredible lake all day long as it is to the south of the home. This is a spacious traditional Florida family home with all rooms much larger than the cookie cutter houses of today. The updated kitchen is a chef's dream with loads of granite counters and cabinet space with lots of soft close drawers, as well as two large pantries, one a walk-in. Coordinating book shelves and buffet and separate island all with matching granite counters and white cottage cabinets. Separate wall oven in addition to standard range with it's own oven. Many years of family gatherings, bbqs, picnics, fishing, grilling and, yes, even working have all transpired at this wonderful property over the years. You truly feel like you are walking in the country when strolling through the oak tree filled lawns with a wonderful breeze coming off the lake that is full of fish. This is the definition of "country in the city" because you are literally minutes to everything but you feel like you are in the country with the awesome mature trees. In addition to the large family home, there is a 1 bedroom cottage that has a kitchenette, bedroom and separate bath with laundry hookups and screened lanai and patio. It needs some tlc and updating, as the pics show, but habitable the way it is. The cottage has been used for a variety of businesses over the years and can be used for in-laws, a "man cave" or "she shack", or whatever needs one may have for it. Additionally, there is an approximate 20X40+- out building shed. Located close to the Manatee/Sarasota county line just northeast of the SRQ Airport for easy commuting north and south. This property is just under 3 acres including a large portion of the lake.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
