Fans of Mad Men architecture & design take note! Here's a 1966 classic built by Ruth Richmond & Richmond Homes. The 2 bed, 2 bath floor-plan is original and still has gleaming terrazzo floors throughout the entire place! Youll even find a whole set of crystallite knob hardware on the well-maintained kitchen cabinetry. And, while we appreciate the original character of a home built by craftsmen, we cant overlook sensitively introduced modern updates like 2 pane, insulated windows and a stainless-steel appliance package. The house has an open plan with a combined living & dining area flowing into the 200 square foot back porch. Pocketing sliders and a vaulted ceiling, both vintage Richmond features make this more than a seasonal nook. This porch space actually integrates in to the whole house floor plan when all the doors are open. There's even a set of sliders leading to the master bedroom. Open them all and your compact, mid-century ranch turns in to a lifestyle master piece. And wait until you see the 1,400 square foot, vaulted lanai enclosing a traditional kidney pool! An attached, single car garage and plenty of driveway has room for your boat or additional vehicles. All of this sits on an oversized, high and dry lot, NOT in the flood zone but close enough to stroll to Sarasota Bay for countless sunsets across the water. The Indian Beach neighborhood is nestled among Sarasota's oldest and most important institutions allowing easy access to Universities, museums, the cultural arts and more.
