Under contract-accepting backup offers. NEW PRICE with the BEST LOCATION! Nestled in a quiet little community of Villa Gardens and less than 5 minutes from Siesta Key Beach, this property is an amazing value! TURNKEY FURNISHED, this villa is surrounded by multiple, private, outdoor living spaces accessed by hurricane rated sliders that flood this home with natural light and great cross breezes when the screens are used. The open concept living room/dining area feels larger with vaulted ceilings leading to a Florida room filled with sunshine. Two large bedrooms provide plenty of storage space and privacy. One of the few villas with a one car garage that provides additional storage space and easy access with a side door. This HOA takes care of your exterior maintenance including your roof (just replaced in 2023), so you can spend more time enjoying the oversized paver patio that faces the quiet, tree lined grounds and is only a short walk to the beautiful community pool and clubhouse when you need to take a refreshing swim. Villa Gardens is also a pet friendly community for dogs and cats. Don’t miss out on this perfectly located gem in the heart of Sarasota!
