Property Description
This private Sarasota acreage estate offers the perfect blend of country living, outdoor entertaining, and equestrian potential while still remaining convenient to Sarasota's amenities and top-rated schools.
Situated on 6 fully fenced acres, this unique property features a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom custom home built in 1994 and a 1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom guest cottage, surrounded by majestic oak trees, lush landscaping, and wide-open space to enjoy Florida's natural beauty. Designed with solid wood construction and rustic country character, the home offers warmth, charm, and architectural details rarely found in newer homes, including high ceilings and a beautiful stained glass accent that add personality and craftsmanship throughout the interior.
Inside, the layout offers flexibility with two bedrooms and two bathrooms downstairs, including the primary suite, and two additional bedrooms located upstairs. The primary bathroom has been recently updated with a mountain-lodge inspired shower featuring rock textures and marble-look walls, adding to the home's rustic character. Recent updates provide peace of mind for future owners, including all water plumbing lines replaced in 2023, a new hot water heater, new garbage disposal, new kitchen appliances, new ceiling fans, newly resurfaced pool (2026) and a recently serviced septic system.
The outdoor living space is truly the highlight of this property. Step onto the back porch overlooking a tropical backyard oasis featuring a lagoon like pool and spa creating the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining. The pool area is surrounded by extensive landscaping, large decorative rock accents, and even a poolside stage, making this home ideal for gatherings, celebrations, and outdoor entertaining.
The property also features a private exterior guest cottage / mother-in-law suite with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, and a kitchenette, designed with a cozy country theme. This flexible space could serve as an Airbnb rental, guest house, private office, multigenerational living space, or retreat for visiting family and friends.
For those seeking room for hobbies, vehicles, or animals, the property includes a large six-bay shed / barn structure that can be used for horse stalls, farm equipment, workshop space, car storage, or recreational vehicles. The land also features a pond and a separately fenced pasture, offering excellent potential for horses, hobby farming, or simply enjoying the peaceful country setting.
Unlike many properties in the area, this home is located within the Voluntary Section of the HOA, allowing owners the freedom to bring boats, trailers, campers, work trucks, RVs, and recreational equipment onto the property.
Residents of Myakka Valley Ranches enjoy private paved roads, two community nature parks, miles of riding and walking trails, and close proximity to Myakka River State Park, creating a unique outdoor lifestyle while remaining conveniently located approximately 30 minutes from Siesta Key Beach and about 45 minutes from downtown Sarasota.
