Have you been daydreaming of getting away from the hustle & bustle? Of a home with land, where you can look out your kitchen window and see your horses, cows, chickens, and garden? Well, look no further, because this is absolutely IT. A rare 10 acre parcel with a lovely, move in ready home, plus a new pole barn with two stalls, all just minutes from the amenities of Sarasota; this kind of property is VERY few and far between. First, lets talk about the land: a beautiful rectangular parcel where just about every inch is usable, flat, and cleared, the possibilities are endless. Enjoy the two fenced paddocks with their lush grass, 2 stall barn, enclosed garden area, and bass & bluegill stocked pond just as it is, or add more maybe some beehives are your pleasure, or perhaps a greenhouse? Other areas are partially fenced so more paddocks will be easy to add if needed and there is space for all of it here! The house is a gorgeous & welcoming Cape Cod style farmhouse with a huge front porch. (This is the stuff dreams are made of, seriously.) Soaring ceilings, a rustic stone fireplace, wood flooring, and open & updated kitchen give an elegant feel that also stays nice & cozy. The split bedrooms & extra half bath are convenient, and the size of the main suite will thrill you: a spacious & bright bedroom, 2 big walk in closets, and an airy, renovated bathroom complete with claw foot tub it is just perfect. Sliding doors lead to the huge covered back porch, with plenty of space to lounge, dine, and cook in the magnificent outdoor kitchen, featuring a built in grill, sink, refrigerator, and your very own pizza oven! There is also an enclosed outdoor shower with hot water just off the porch. Functionally, the property offers hardie board siding, a newer AC, recently re screened patio, and a brand new septic field. The house is just 3 miles from the north entrance to Myakka State Park, 15 minutes from the freeway, and about 35 minutes will get you to downtown Sarasota. Dont wait to see this special home. It is truly one of a kind and, if you love animals, growing & cooking your own food, and plenty of space to breathe, it is the perfect place for your next chapter.
