A wide paver driveway leads to the attached garage and complements the home’s functional exterior layout. Major updates include a newer shingle roof installed in 2021. Flood insurance is not required, and there is no HOA. Conveniently located near University Town Center shopping and dining, UTC Mall, Benderson Park, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, and Gulf beaches, this pond-front pool home delivers a lifestyle that balances everyday convenience with peaceful waterfront living. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
