Property Description

Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the gated enclave of Bent Tree, this three-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence offers a rare blend of privacy, architectural character, and connection to nature. Surrounded by mature oak trees and lush landscaping on nearly a third of an acre with preserve views, the home is in one of Sarasota’s established golf and country club communities—close to top-rated schools, and just a short drive to the region’s renowned beaches, shopping, dining, downtown, and University Town Center. A gated entry through a scenic, tree-lined drive leads to this 2,393-square-foot home, where vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, skylights, and multiple sets of sliders invite openness and natural light. The kitchen, renovated since construction, features custom cabinetry, a center island, ample storage, and a workstation overlooking the family room and wooded backyard. The expansive covered lanai—measuring 518 square feet—seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor living through sliders from the family room, breakfast nook, dining area, and primary suite. With a newer roof (2021), new HVAC (2025), and original bathrooms, this residence offers a clean canvas for buyers to design a living space aligned with their tastes. In a non-cookie-cutter neighborhood known for its architectural diversity, low HOA, no CDD, and optional country club membership, this is a rare offering in a desired setting.
