Situated in the desirable Sorrento East community, this beautifully maintained home sits on just over a ¼ acre and offers a serene retreat for gardening and wildlife lovers. The carefully curated gardens have been recognized by the National Wildlife Federation as a Certified Wildlife Habitat, providing food, water, and shelter for native birds, butterflies, and other local species. Inside, you’ll find a warm, inviting layout with tasteful updates throughout. At the heart of the home, the open-concept kitchen and family room create the perfect space for entertaining or relaxed everyday living. The kitchen has been upgraded with solid wood, shaker-style soft-close cabinets, tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, a farmhouse-style basin sink, Quartz countertops with a counter-height breakfast bar, and a large walk-in pantry. Engineered hardwood floors flow through the main living areas, adding timeless elegance. The interior is freshly painted in soft coastal hues that enhance the light, airy feel. A spacious screened lanai (accessible from the family room, dining room, and primary bedroom) extends your living space and opens to a paver patio with ample room for outdoor dining, relaxation, and entertaining. The backyard has plenty of ROOM TO ADD A POOL, and the entire property is framed by mature landscaping that provides privacy and peaceful surroundings. Additional features include Hunter Douglas window treatments, HURRICANE IMPACT WINDOWS throughout, and an IRRIGATION SYSTEM (replaced in 2018) that runs off a well. Major mechanical updates offer peace of mind: a brand new ROOF in 2024 with a transferrable warranty, HVAC and ductwork replaced in 2025 with a whole-home UV air purification system, HOT WATER HEATER (2018), GUTTERS (2020), and MAIN SEWER AND LATERAL PIPES RELINED in 2022. Located just next door to Oscar Scherer State Park and the Legacy Trail, this home is a nature lover’s dream with miles of hiking and biking just outside your door. Nokomis Beach and the North Jetty are only 4 miles away, offering the ultimate Florida coastal lifestyle. Best of all, this property is not in a flood zone – flood insurance is NOT required.
