Under contract-accepting backup offers. Virtually Staged. Welcome to 5640 Howard Creek Road, a beautifully updated 5.3-ACRE equestrian property offering 2,700 sq. ft. of living space, a PRIVATE IN-LAW SUITE, large pool and an impressive horse setup in Sarasota’s 34241 area. The property offers 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms total, including a 2,028 sq. ft. 3-bedroom, 2-bath main home with hurricane impact windows and a separate 672 sq. ft. 1-bedroom, 1-bath in-law suite with private entrance, living room, kitchenette and pool views. Designed with the equestrian lifestyle in mind, the property features an 6-STALL BARN, including one oversized stall, individual turnouts, fans, rubber mats, plumbed water troughs and two wash stations. There are 6 fenced pastures plus a dressage arena, originally constructed around 2015 with specialized sand and rubber footing.There is also a newer pasture shelter perfect for goats, cows, llamas, large birds or donkeys. The home has undergone extensive renovations and major system updates. UPDATED SHINGLE ROOF was completed in August 2021, the ELECTRICAL PANEL was replaced in December 2023, and the home now features a BRAND-NEW 4 TON HVAC system with NEW DUCTWORK and VENTS completed in 2025. The SEWER LINES were also PROFESSIONALLY RELINED in 2025, eliminating the original cast iron, and the kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room and main living areas have been extensively remodeled from the studs. Inside, most everything has been thoughtfully and tastefully updated with a clean, modern design. The kitchen centers around a large island with quartz countertops, modern blue wood cabinetry, new fixtures and brand-new appliances. The updated bathrooms continue the same modern aesthetic, including a spacious primary bath with dual sinks and a beautiful freestanding soaking tub. The PRIVATE IN-LAW SUITE was RENOVATED IN 2024 with an updated kitchen, appliances, flooring, shower and dedicated HVAC system (2014) —ideal for multi generational living, extended family, guests or additional living space. Outside, enjoy a RECENTLY RESURFACED POOL, NEWLY FINISHED MARBLE LANAI and a spacious covered deck perfect for entertaining. Additional improvements include newer front gate and fencing, recent #57 limestone driveway improvements, a 30-amp RV hookup, generator-ready electrical infrastructure and an attached 2-car garage. Located in Myakka Valley Ranches, an established Sarasota equestrian community known for its 5+ acre homesites, horse-friendly setting, riding and multi-use trails, and proximity to Myakka River State Park. This property is located within a VOLUNTARY HOA, giving owners the opportunity to enjoy the community while maintaining the freedom and privacy that make acreage living so appealing. Additionally, fiber optic internet is available through Myakka Communications for all your high speed needs. With 5.3 acres, 6 pastures, a 6-stall barn, dressage arena, private guest quarters and extensive recent improvements, this property offers a rare opportunity for buyers looking for a move-in-ready Sarasota horse property just 30 minutes to Siesta Key Beach and in a high demand school district.
