Welcome to Tallywood! This 55+ community features many amenities to socialize with your neighbors and enjoy the best parts of living in Sarasota. With over 25 acres of beautiful mature oak trees, your morning stroll to the community pool, fenced dog park, fitness center, or clubhouse will feel like you're miles away from the city and in a national park. However, you are only a short 10-minute drive from Downtown Sarasota, I-75 and only 5 more minutes to Lido Beach and St Armand's Circle. Publix and other daily shopping needs are located only a 3-minute drive away, affording you convenience and time savings. As one of the larger villas in Tallywood, you will have plenty of options of how you use the space. The master suite, second bedroom and bathroom, and laundry are on the first floor so climbing steps does not have to be a part of your daily life if you wish to avoid it. The third bedroom, located on the second floor, is a great space for guests, or a perfect hobby room/den with its privacy and a great view of your park-like community. The kitchen has many upgrades including new quartz countertops, tile backsplash, refaced cabinets, and newer appliances to complement an extra-large pantry. A cozy dinette space in the kitchen next to a large window is perfect for intimate meals. Skylights in the living room, guest bathroom, and entryway provide great natural light. With attic space, under stairs storage, large closets, and additional storage in your private carport, storage for seasonal items or beach accessories will not be a problem. This unit is located near the end of a cul-du-sac so provides extra yard in the front and the back and minimal traffic. Sit on the open-air front porch or enclosed rear porch and enjoy a relaxing start or end of your day. This property has it all, great location, pet friendly, privacy, and convenience to suit full time residents, seasonal living, or investors looking for a slam dunk.
