3947 Spyglass Hill Road, Sarasota, FL 34238

Description

Country Club of Sarasota (CCS) is unique in so many ways that once past the GUARD HOUSE you will be delighted at every turn of its gently winding roads. Delighted that every one of these 296 homes are architecturally distinct, that all have generous lots--most, like this one, with golf course views-- and that the HOA (which is very low) does NOT require membership in ANY club. Should YOU want to golf, join the TPC course at Prestancia (after all, this home looks out at their greens). If tennis is your sport, joining the Serendipity Racquet Club, also on the grounds of CCS, and reasonable and so convenient. Spyglass Hill (what an image-inspiring name) is in Sarasota's best school district (Riverview) and with 4 bedrooms there is ample room for a growing family. The opportunity also exists to bring in aging parents AND a nurse if the need arose because there is a distinct wing which could be used for that purpose. Upon entering the house find yourself in the FOYER which once was covered wall-to-ceiling with oil paintings, then off to the immediate right is a LIVING ROOM which looks out to the street. The SEPARATE DINING ROOM adjoins, and there find outlets for your chandelier, and for the sconces now removed which lit the elegance which once was. At this writing the owner, not being herself, resides with family out-of-state. In her absence the home had its issues, now resolved. However, there is much you can do to create your own magazine perfect abode: put in a new kitchen, update the master bath, and a designer closet await your unique touch. The pool is being resurfaced, and the pavers have been pressure washed, but gone is the plush landscaping, and the built-in outdoor barbeque needs a loving redo. Meantime, enjoy new luxury vinyl flooring in all bedrooms, freshly painted walls, and one AC from 2010, the tile roof is from 2013 or so, if you want to replace with shingles, HOA says OK, new lanai screening, and all new kitchen appliances. The home has been remediated, with documentation for your review. It was also replumbed removing copper piping for PVC. Rentals permitted after a year ownership (and leases must be yearly only). Know that remodeled homes in the community have sold this year for over one million. Country Club of Sarasota is also ideally located just moments from COSTCO and STARBUCKS. Stickney Point Bridge (access to SIESTA KEY) is a mere 3 miles up the road. Interstate-75 Clark Road exit is also conveniently near. 24-hour notice please. Cash buyers preferred. So come see for yourself before the hordes return like swallows to Capistrano.
