MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION - MUST SEE! This gorgeous home in the iconic Rustic Lodge enclave in Arlington Park was meticulously remodeled in 2020. The thoughtfully designed layout flows seamlessly from a central gathering space combining great room and kitchen-ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Highlights include soaring shiplap ceilings, engineered hardwood floors, premium lighting, and PGT impact doors and windows. The kitchen is anchored by a large island featuring granite countertops, high-end appliances, and custom cabinetry, while French doors open to the secluded outdoor spaces. This 3 bed 2 bath split floor plan features a Primary Suite with elegantly appointed walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bathroom complete with walk-in shower, soaking tub, and dual sinks. The north wing of the home includes two guest bedrooms and a full bath with shower/tub combination, offering separation and privacy from the primary suite. Conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen, the laundry room includes a top tier washer and dryer. An oversized garage affords a full wall of built-in storage space. Outdoor features include a newly landscaped garden, decorative awnings, delightful garden art, a driveway with inset river rock, and a walled "secret garden" oasis in the side yard, complete with shade umbrella and charming garden gate. Major systems/appliances replaced during the total renovation in 2020 include roof, air conditioning, water heater, electrical, plumbing, kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, and impact resistant doors and windows. Ideally situated on a corner lot near the Arlington Park complex, and just minutes from Downtown Sarasota, Southside Village, and award winning Siesta Key Beaches.
