Property Description
Virtually Staged. Tucked away on an oversized corner lot in the desirable South Gate neighborhood, this beautifully refreshed mid-century modern home is a rare blend of timeless design and thoughtful updates. Recently updated, the home features refinished terrazzo floors, a new kitchen with updated cabinetry, countertops and appliances, along with new bath vanities, allowing the original character of the era to shine while offering modern comfort. The flexible floor plan includes three bedrooms, two baths, and an expansive 12-by-13-foot laundry room that could easily be reimagined as a home office, studio or additional living space, bringing the interior to nearly 2,000 square feet. Large windows and classic architectural lines reinforce the home’s authentic mid-century feel. Anchoring the home is a dramatic double-sided stone fireplace, a mid-century architectural statement that subtly divides living spaces while maintaining openness and flow. Crafted in natural stone, it functions as a sculptural focal point and a functional hearth, an unmistakable nod to the design principles of the era. Outdoors, enjoy an excellent covered patio overlooking a generous screened-in pool, ideal for relaxed afternoons or entertaining year-round. The oversized corner lot enhances privacy and provides a sense of space rarely found in this area. Roof 2025, Newer front door/windows (2014), PVC from house to street. South Gate offers an optional HOA, giving residents access to a community pool, clubhouse and a full calendar of neighborhood events, adding a wonderful sense of connection without obligation. Ideally located, the home is just a short distance or bike ride to Arlington Park, Southside Village and Sarasota Memorial Hospital, with quick access to downtown Sarasota, Siesta Key and St. Armands Circle. This is a mid-century modern home for those who appreciate the architecture, simplicity and enduring style of the era, set in one of Sarasota’s beloved neighborhoods.
