Description

Braden Woods, one of the sought-after communities of the Bradenton/Lakewood Ranch/Sarasota area, now has this lovingly cared-for family home of 20 years on the market looking for its next owner. With an acre of land, most of it cleared, manicured and fenced, you have all the room needed to store your toys, let the four-legged family members run, and of course, the outdoor family games and playtime. The pool, along with an expansive lanai, is large enough for everyone, along with friends and family, to jump in. They just don’t make them this large anymore. As you enter the home, you are drawn to the vaulted ceilings and skylights, bringing in the natural light that enhances the wood floors in the home. Walk straight through and smile at this newly updated kitchen with quartz countertops, white Kraftmaid wood cabinetry, a butler’s pantry for extra style and storage, large food pantry, Bosch appliances that are two to three years old (with exception of microwave that is Maytag) and beautiful travertine flooring. The eating space in the kitchen, with French doors that lead to the lanai, is a great place to sit and admire your expansive backyard. You have a formal dining room and gathering/TV room at the front of the home and a comfortable family room with fireplace and two sets of French doors off the back. To finish up the downstairs, you have a large, organized laundry room off the kitchen, the 4th bedroom and a half bath for guests. Upstairs you have a spacious master bedroom and bath (with separate shower and jacuzzi tub) along with two more bedrooms and a bath. Still, no carpet to worry about with the wood flooring continuing up the stairs and throughout the second floor (minus baths) and vaulted ceilings in bedrooms two and three. Other notable updates/upgrades of the home are the roof, done in 2014, ACs, 2017 and 2018, pool pump five years old, all baths updated, bedroom closets and laundry room have organizers and septic was redone in 2021 (tank and field). For peace of mind, there are hurricane shutters for the front windows and the garage is wired for a generator to be used for lights and appliances, and there is a gas generator that will do the same. Braden Woods is favored because of its 1-acre lots, non-cookie cutter homes and the friendly atmosphere it displays. As you pull up to this home, you will come to realize the peaceful setting of the front yard is just the beginning of a great place to call home.
