Sapphire Shores ranch home on an oversized parcel just steps to Sun Circle Park. This 3 bed, 2 bath pool home has been wonderfully updated with a new roof, impact resistant windows & doors, refinished terrazzo floors, a new kitchen and two new baths. It still retains cool mid-century flair with the vaulted and beamed cypress ceilings, an interior, exposed, stacked block wall and gleaming terrazzo throughout. This is most likely a “Zimmerman” design which puts it solidly within the Sarasota School of Architecture. The “eat in” kitchen overlooks the pool where this owner has piped and plumbed for outdoor cooking. The dining room also opens to the lanai with a large, covered porch and heated pool. And this pool will be more than an exotic “night light” since it is 40 feet long! What a wonderful way to exercise and relax. The most recent addition is the bonus room adjacent to the interior laundry. This serves as a “drop zone” coming in from the car but is large enough for a home office or most hobbies. Being next to the kitchen makes it a convenient, accessible space and potentially a large pantry. The principal bedroom is en-suite with dual closets. Outside, you’ll find a large yard with plenty of back yard privacy but if you want to socialize, Sun Circle Park is within sight from the front yard and is a wonderful place to walk along the waterfront and enjoy sunsets over Sarasota Bay and Longboat Key. Sapphire Shores in an eclectic waterfront neighborhood dating back to the Ringling Era and is now a combination of historic Mediterranean mansions, classic ranches and new construction. Live here amidst Sarasota's most significant cultural & educational institutions and you're only 2 miles north of downtown Sarasota, a 12-minute drive to St. Armands Circle and the beaches of Lido and Longboat Key and an equal distance to University Parkway anchored on the west by SRQ International Airport and UTC Mall and I75 on the east.
