From the listing

Whitfield Estates pool home on a rare double lot, 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2,109 sq ft concrete block home west of the Tamiami Trail and minutes from Sarasota Bay, with roof, HVAC and variable speed pool pump all replaced in 2017. Flood Zone X. Hurricane impact windows throughout. Room for RV or boat parking behind a wide gate. Roof, HVAC 2017, Front Yard Irrigation 2026, Insulation 2026. Inside, a bright open great room flows into a kitchen built for hosting, with Corian counters, a center island, built in oven and separate cooktop. Original terrazzo and ceramic tile run through much of the home, paired with crown molding and fresh interior paint that show off the mid century architecture. The primary suite offers a custom fitted walk in closet and a fully updated granite bath. Two additional bedrooms, a dedicated laundry room and a separate dining room complete the easy single level layout. Out back, a covered lanai opens to an 18x36 private pool inside a fully fenced, irrigated yard. A wide gated entry gives you room to park an RV, boat or trailer inside the enclosed yard, and the double lot still leaves space to entertain, garden, add a workshop or expand the home. Lots this size west of Trail are increasingly hard to find. Buyer to verify any parking, expansion, additional structure or rental use with Manatee County. The optional Whitfield Estates HOA is $35 a year, and residents may apply for a culinary membership at the historic Sara Bay Country Club. The Ringling, Asolo Repertory Theatre, New College, Ringling College of Art and Design, IMG Academy, SRQ Airport, UTC and downtown Sarasota are all a short drive, with St. Armands Circle, Lido Key and the Gulf beaches close at hand.
