Welcome to the Landings, which is a gated centrally located (West-of-Trail) Sarasota neighborhood. This spacious and beautifully updated three-bedroom, two and half bath home features a gated entry portico, leading to the foyer and an open-concept floor plan. A team of professionals worked to plan this renovation, including interior designers and architects. The roof line was completely redesigned with two new gables (the entry portico and over the 2 car garage). The first thing noticed upon entry, is the open-ness, wood floors and vaulted ceilings. Then the large formal living area with its pecky cypress beams and transom windows. Now you are drawn through the living room wall (of sliding doors) to the 2015 renovated pool. This open wall with its transom windows allows an abundance of natural light to enter your space. The updated kitchen with a center island is perfect for entertaining and flows easily from both the living room, dining room and family room, with its wood burning fireplace. Enjoy complete privacy in the rear yard, with mature tropical landscaping. The master bedroom features more sliders opening to the covered lanai and a renovated luxury bath. Master bathroom has sliding doors to a private landscaped courtyard. The guest bedrooms are on the other side of your home, (located off the kitchen family room) and share a renovated bath.. An optional membership is available at The Landings Racquet Club, which has an active tennis program with eight clay courts, a heated Olympic-size pool, a fitness room and social activities. The Landings is a wonderful, well-established community with a 24-hour guard gate, lovely winding, tree-canopied streets, a variety of homes and a nature trail that leads to the Intracoastal Waterway with a community fishing pier. Close to shopping and dining, minutes to downtown Sarasota's cultural and urban activities and a short drive to Siesta Beach's world-famous powdery sands and the Gulf of Mexico.
