The guest wing offers an over-sized bedroom, perfect for a home gym or private in-law suite, and provides privacy and flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Every detail has been meticulously curated, from designer finishes to thoughtful storage solutions. Outside, enjoy lush landscaping, generous green space, and the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining. The lap pool and spa offer privacy and access to indoor-outdoor living spaces. All of this is located in the highly sought after Southside Elementary School district, and within walking distance to downtown Sarasota and Southside Village, placing dining, shopping, and cultural attractions just steps from your door.
