*BACK ON THE MARKET – BUYER’S FINANCING FELL THROUGH* NEW PHOTOS, FLOORPLAN, and 3D TOUR! Enjoy the best of the Florida lifestyle with this move-in ready updated mid-century home featuring an insurance-friendly hip roof (2018), all impact windows, and no required flood insurance. The water heater was replaced in 2019 and the AC in 2020. Two bedrooms feature en-suite bathrooms which have been newly renovated and re-piped. The kitchen features granite counters, a breakfast bar, pantry, and a large window overlooking the park-like backyard. Every detail was considered in the bathroom renovation where you will find Kohler fixtures, space saving wall-mounted toilets, and new plumbing. The best of the mid-century details have been preserved including built-ins, terrazzo floors, and an oversized screened lanai. The renovations and updates take care of everything you need in terms of modern conveniences. Smaller details have also been taken care of including refinishing the cast iron tub and even replacing bathroom lighting with vibe-setting adjustable lights. Pavers and Florida native and Florida friendly landscaping give the front of house a park-like feel. The tropical garden lifestyle continues in the backyard where an oversized screened lanai and a fire pit overlook the beautiful New College of Florida campus. The home is also one of the few in the neighborhood on public sewer. While the property is located in an X-flood zone, which does not require flood insurance, it is only a block from Sarasota Bay where neighbors watch the sunset and launch their kayaks and paddleboards. The Uplands neighborhood is one of the highest bayfront neighborhoods in Sarasota. In addition to access to Sarasota Bay the neighborhood features a spring-fed pond with excellent bird watching opportunities. The Uplands neighborhood association hosts neighborhood events and membership is low-cost but optional. The home is just blocks from the world-renowned Ringling Museum of Art and Asolo theatre. USF Sarasota-Manatee is also located nearby. Downtown Sarasota, Lido Beach, and the UTC shopping area are all within 15 minutes of the home.
