## Description

### Agent Description
Clean, spacious, and move-in ready, this beautifully decorated first-floor one-bedroom, one-bath condo offers 780 square feet of comfortable living in The Gardens subdivision of Palm Aire Golf & Country Club, with membership optional. Pride of ownership is evident throughout this recently updated home featuring ceramic tile flooring, a newer A/C system (2020), updated kitchen and bathroom cabinets and countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The open kitchen includes a convenient pass-through to the living and dining areas, which showcase fresh paint, a new ceiling fan, pendant lighting, and unique accent wall features. The fully renovated bathroom offers a new vanity, modern fixtures, updated flooring, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower. Additional upgrades include new closet doors, a newer water heater, and an in-unit stackable washer and dryer. The spacious primary bedroom features dual closets, and the screened-in porch with new flooring is just steps from the heated community pool, tennis courts, clubhouse, and shuffleboard. This attractive, quiet community offers a friendly pet policy allowing one small dog or cat up to 20 lbs and is conveniently located near Benderson Park, University Town Center shopping and dining, medical facilities, I-75, and just 15 minutes from Sarasota’s famous Gulf beaches—an affordable condo in a prime location that won’t last long.
