Discover the perfect blend of charming open spaces and serenity in this enchanting 2-story mid-century modern home just minutes from Nokomis Beach. Tucked away on a quiet street and a stone’s throw from the Intracoastal Waterway, this residence evokes the signature style of the iconic Sarasota School of Architecture with its generous living spaces, large panes of glass, clerestory windows, clean lines, and harmonious integration of indoor and outdoor spaces. The 40-ft-long living/dining room area with 10-ft ceilings is bathed in natural light and offers a seamless connection to the outdoors through E-Z-operated 9-ft-tall pocketing sliders that lead to the spacious screened patio and heated saltwater pool. Cooking enthusiasts will love the chef’s kitchen, which boasts a Dacor 6-burner gas stovetop, double wall ovens, stainless steel appliances and work surface, granite countertops, and a breakfast bar. Open the sliders next to the eat-in kitchen area to start your day in peace and tranquility while savoring refreshing breezes and views of the idyllic outdoor courtyard. This picturesque patio is covered, walled, and fenced-in for privacy. You’ll love spending moments sitting underneath the majestic oak tree and walking pathways that meander through lush landscaping to the screened patio with pool and green space beyond. The courtyard also features an outdoor grill, making it the perfect spot for alfresco dining, while the firepit and hot tub offer warmth and conviviality. An office and laundry room are also on this level for convenience. Ascend the elegant open-step staircase to discover the generous-sized primary suite – an inviting sanctuary with a sitting room that boasts a mid-century modern Malm fireplace and clerestory windows for ample lighting and privacy. Opposite, you’ll find a full hallway bathroom and guest bedroom. Also on this level is a chic glass-walled walkway that takes you to a large 27’x18’ media room and second guest bedroom. Offering the ultimate in viewing pleasure day or night, the media room features a wet bar area with a fridge, drop-down motorized movie screen, remote control zero-light window coverings, and sound-deadening wall panels. Extend the festivities outside to the roof deck for additional entertainment space and staircase leading to driveway and private backyard. Additional perks include a Sonos Sound system throughout and oversized 2.5-car garage plus carport, with 50 amp service, and additional paved area that allows for 4 vehicles, room for a boat or RV, as there are no deed restrictions. Conveniently located, it's a 10-minute walk to Nokomis Beach and the Saturday evening “drum circle”, with restaurants and a marina at the end of the street.
