Under contract-accepting backup offers. Live by Sarasota Bay but outside the floodplain in this beautifully updated home on over a half-acre of land! An insurance-friendly metal hip roof was installed in 2021. Impact windows and impact doors were also installed in 2021 making the property hurricane-ready. The Uplands neighborhood is known for its old-Florida charm and this property exemplifies the joys of Florida living. Entering the home you first notice the bright and open floorplan which features views of the oversized pool and the large private backyard. The split floorplan provides privacy for the owner’s suite and ensures bountiful natural light for each room.  In addition to a workshop the garage features plenty of room for bicycles, kayaks, and more — perfect for your close proximity to Sarasota Bay. You can see Sarasota Bay from the driveway of the home and have access to the Bay through the Uplands Preserve. Yet, the property is in a X500 flood zone which is outside the flood plain and does not require flood insurance. The Uplands neighborhood is one of the highest bayfront neighborhoods in Sarasota and also features a spring-fed pond with excellent bird watching opportunities.  The home is just blocks from the world-renowned Ringling Museum of Art and Asolo theatre. The Crosley Estate, New College of Florida, and USF Sarasota-Manateeare also easily accessible through the Uplands Preserve. Downtown Sarasota, Lido Beach, and the UTC shopping area are all within 15 minutes of the home.
