## Description

### Agent Description
Opportunity meets lifestyle - priced to sell and positioned BELOW market value. Welcome to Florida living in the highly sought-after, guard-gated community of Turtle Rock.

Meticulously maintained and showcasing timeless finishes, this beautiful pool home offers privacy, comfort, and an unbeatable central location between Sarasota and Venice.

Step through the double glass entry doors into a light-filled interior featuring high ceilings, neutral tones, plantation shutters, and newer carpet. Fresh interior and exterior paint give the home a crisp, well-cared-for appearance while maintaining its classic design.

The open-concept living areas flow effortlessly to the screened lanai, where you’ll enjoy serene views of the resurfaced pool and private backyard. This home has been exceptionally cared for and reflects pride of ownership throughout.

The spacious kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and a functional layout ideal for entertaining or everyday living. Multiple living and dining spaces provide flexibility for hosting guests or relaxing comfortably.

The primary suite is a peaceful retreat with pool views and a well-appointed en-suite bath featuring a soaking tub, separate shower, and dual vanities.

Major improvements and features provide added confidence:
• New AC unit (2022)
• New air handler (2022)
• 4-Point Inspection completed (2026)
• Interior paint (2025)
• Exterior paint (2025)
• Pool resurfaced within the last four years
• Hurricane fabric and shutters for added protection

This home is priced to sell and thoughtfully positioned below market value, offering a unique opportunity for buyers to personalize and add long-term value. The roof is functional and has remaining life, while also presenting the option for a future update—allowing the next owner to select their preferred style and color to truly make the home their own.

Turtle Rock is known for its lush mature landscaping, a scenic walking trail, and direct access to the renowned Legacy Trail just steps away. The community offers two guarded entrances, with one staffed 24 hours, as well as a community pool, clubhouse, and recreational amenities including basketball, pickleball, and tennis courts. A variety of social clubs and activities for men, women, families, and youth foster a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere.

Centrally located between Downtown Sarasota and Downtown Venice, you are minutes from top-rated schools, restaurants, shopping, hardware stores, and everyday conveniences. Launch your paddleboard or kayak within minutes and enjoy multiple world-renowned beaches, including Siesta Key Beach, only 8 miles away.

This is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained home with timeless appeal—and the ability to customize key elements—in one of the area’s most beautiful communities.
