Virtually Staged. Enchanting opportunity in The Meadows, a park-like oasis in a phenomenal location! Cocooned in a lush Old Florida preserve, this very private pool home offers the ease of maintenance-free living and the seclusion of a remote forest retreat yet remains remarkably close to everything Sarasota has to offer. Inside, soaring ceilings and tall walls of glass fill the home with natural light and adorn it with serene, lush preserve views from nearly every room. The ideal great-room floor plan offers comfortable living with no wasted space. The open kitchen features white cabinetry, Silver Pearl granite countertops and stainless appliances. A split-bedroom design provides privacy, with the spacious primary suite on one side and two guest bedrooms on the other. Surrounded by mature trees and tropical vegetation, the home feels like a hidden treehouse in the forest. All this tranquility, yet just five minutes from 93 restaurants and all the fun The Meadows has to offer. Set on 1,600 park-like acres, The Meadows is a resort-style community just 15 minutes from downtown.
