Property Description
A home that is enveloped in the serenity of nature and also located smack in the middle of town is nearly unheard of, and yet, you have found one! Located on winding, wildlife-filled Phillippi Creek on a high & dry perch, this updated property is an ideal full-time or seasonal residence. The Southside Elementary zoning is a perk for those with school-age children, and everyone will delight in the ultra-convenient location. 10 minutes or less by car gets you easily to downtown, Siesta Key, and I-75, and the opportunities for cycling abound as well: maybe a quick ride to Southside Village or riding the Legacy Trail to downtown strikes your fancy? Back to the home itself, the split bedroom plan is ideal, and a major renovation just a few years ago means you can move right in! Beautiful tile floors, an updated kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless appliances, recessed LED lighting throughout, and a gleaming primary bath will wow, and there is also loads of storage. You’ll find a large walk-in closet in the primary bedroom, lots of extra garage space, and a big laundry room, all unusual features for a South Gate home. The house also enjoys an oversized 1/3 acre lot and a massive amount of usable outdoor space! The graciously sized heated pool will beckon, and there is ample covered area in the screened lanai to lounge or grill & entertain. The fully fenced yard also features a pretty garden with winding stone path, perfect for taking in the view of Phillippi Creek and watching the birds. Pop your paddle board or kayak in and venture all the way in the intercoastal! Finally, the cul de sac location means serenity and privacy. What a special find this home is, schedule your visit today!
