Nestled within the desirable West of Trail Southpointe Shores Community, this home benefits from top-rated school zones and a serene, upscale waterfront atmosphere. This canal front home was fully updated with a bright open layout. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, large updated kitchen with lots of windows and the living areas have pocket sliding doors to outdoor entertaining areas. Luxury vinyl flooring throughout. The indoor/outdoor living quality is almost unbeatable. The current owner added and enlarged the outdoor terrace (almost the width of the entire home) including roofing a section of it and having panoramic and vaulted screening installed that you barely see. Open the pocket sliding doors to create seamless entertaining. Gorgeous views of the canal and great dock space and jet ski lifts also. The canal is very wide and deep water in all tide conditions. The home is only 4 homes away from the intracoastal waterway and just 10 minutes by boat to access the Gulf and Midnight Pass. Roof was replaced in 2021, new pool equipment and air conditioning in 2021. Boat lift 2022. Oversized dock. The neighborhood's private boat ramp, available for a minimal annual fee, enhances its appeal for boating enthusiasts. Perfectly situated close to Sarasota's shopping, dining, Siesta Key beaches, and marinas, the property still offers the tranquility, water access, and elevated coastal living that define a true retreat. Come see it for yourself and bask in the waterfront views from the amazing terrace.
