Come home to a sylvan paradise. Bent Tree Woodlands features some of Sarasota's most beautiful acreage and this home has one of the most desireable locations in the neighborhood.The panoramic lakefront site is almost 3/4 acre & located at the end of a quiet, shady cul de sac. This grand home takes full advantage of its beautiful setting. Over 4300 sq.ft., it is designed to view the beautiful scenery from almost every vantage point. The soaring ceilings of the great room are accentuated by the massive stone fireplace & multiple windows & sliders, creating a bright, open feeling. Entertaining is a must here. The pool/spa/lanai is endless & has a newer paver deck. You won't believe the effect of the lake wrapping around the entire back of the home. Three downstairs bedrooms & two baths are generously sized & conveniently laid out. Upstairs is a great loft area & a large master with wonderful views of the yard and lake. The kitchen is very spacious with a large island, wall oven & very big & sunny eating area. A generous formal dining room & separate office/den/family room offer great flexibility for any lifestyle. A big laundry room leads to an oversized 3 car, side entry garage with workshop!The major systems & roof are all in good shape but the home couldbenefit from some cosmetic updating. It is difficult to find this much home, in this beautiful a setting for this price. Add in the golf community, the excellent schools and great convenience to I-75 & shopping & you have a winning combination.
