5130 Creekside Trl, Sarasota, FL 34243

This home has been elegantly remodeled, is lovingly cared for and is by far the best home in Carlyle. You will know you have arrived when you see the iron fence and enter through the decorative glass door. The home is completely tiled. There is an air-conditioned Florida room that was added and overlooks the private and serene backyard. This is the only Florida Room in the entire Carlyle at Palm Aire Community. The kitchen is graced with granite counters, custom raised panel wooden cabinetry, and top of the line stainless appliances and will delight the Chef in the family. There is a fully functional media room and a large master suite fit for a king and queen. You will love relaxing in the spa-like master bath, complete with a jet tub and vessel basins. The floor plan is open, light and bright and the architectural details and design elements are beautiful. Carlyle is a great Sarasota community, conveniently located. There is a community pool, tennis courts and a playground. Sarasota is known on for it's sugar sandy beaches, culture, shopping and fine dining. This is truly Florida living at its best! The following home improvements that are significant upgrades, that almost no other homes in Carlyle have are as follows: Radiant Barrier in attic $13,000. Every Window in the home including the 32 windows located in the only sunroom in Carlyle are 180 mph gas filled double pained heat resistant windows $32,000. 28 Solar panels $26,000, monthly electric bill since installation has never exceed the $8.00 per month base charge. I am expecting a rebate from FPL in the new year as I produce 29% more electricity than I use and sell this excess back to FPL. I have installed a Solar Telsa Battery Power Backup System costing $24,000. Decoratively professionally painted driveway $2,500. Roof Shingles replaced two years ago $12,000. Extensive Landscape improvements $25,000 cost. $5,000 raised rear deck overlooking a nature preserve. An elegant fountain surrounded by a beautiful decorative large paver stone covering a drainage system that comes equipped with a motorized drainage pump that is inserted into pvc underground piping out and away from the elevated lawn. There is a three foot high stone retaining wall that allows for the full usage of property. The view is gorgeous and the backyard is completely private with a forest that includes the army core of engineers fast running and deep canal that is teaming with fish and is easily accessed via a well worn path that leads directly to it. I have seen Bobcats and Panthers walking across my retaining wall in the early morning on their way back to their lair’s, to sleep after a night of hunting. I have had two deers wandering in the forest just feet from the property’s boundaries. With over a $170,000 of improvements. I expect a sale price far above the average Square footage price for this property, as it is truly a unique property with by far the best view in this development. There is an additional fenced in paver stone deck with stairs leading down into the preserve. The landscaping was all professionally done and is also unsurpassed in a development where most of the owners take their landscaping seriously.
