Property Description
Virtually Staged. Positioned on a spacious corner homesite of more than half an acre along a quiet cul-de-sac, this courtyard pool residence in Laurel Oak Estates offers a rare sense of privacy, flexibility, and classic Florida living. A double glass door entry opens into an expansive screened courtyard, where the pool and spa create a private outdoor centerpiece designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The layout is centered around this space, with multiple sets of pocketing sliding glass doors that disappear completely—seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living while filling the home with natural light from its desirable southeastern exposure. The main residence features a two-bedroom, two-bath configuration with open living and dining areas, a spacious kitchen with solid wood cabinetry, and a casual dining nook that connects easily to the courtyard. The primary suite includes direct access to the outdoor living space, along with a large bay window with a built-in window seat, adding character and charm. A detached one-bedroom, one-bath casita provides exceptional versatility, offering a comfortable and private space for guests, a home office, or extended family living. Additional highlights include an oversized two-car garage with extra length to accommodate a golf cart and ample storage, along with a large storage closet. The home has been consistently maintained, with regularly serviced A/C systems, updated mechanicals, and a long-standing maintenance history that supports confidence in ownership. Outdoor living extends beyond the courtyard with an additional screened patio accessible from the main living areas and primary suite, offering even more space to enjoy the surrounding grounds. The property presents a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to personalize while benefiting from a well-cared-for structure and a highly functional floor plan. Located within the guard-gated community of Laurel Oak Estates, residents enjoy mature landscaping and optional membership to Laurel Oak Country Club, featuring two championship golf courses, tennis, pickleball, dining, and a vibrant social environment. Conveniently positioned east of I-75, the home is just minutes from Waterside Place at Lakewood Ranch, UTC’s shopping and dining district, and a short drive to downtown Sarasota’s cultural venues and Gulf beaches—bringing together privacy, space, and accessibility in one of the area’s most established communities.
