Stunning, mid-century, ranch home in South Gate with views you must see to believe! If you could have picked one of the best lots in South Gate back in the 1960s this may have been it. The two-bed, two bath home sits on a bluff overlooking a wide portion of Philippi Creek including a large aquatic preserve. Youll be mesmerized by long, unobstructed views in every direction. A nature lovers delight and absolutely intoxicating for bird watchers and sunset chasers. You may even see the manatee families which travel in from the Intercoastal Waterway and the Sarasota bays not far downstream. But while location is important there are many more features in this Mod Men classic to consider. Entering through the large foyer youll immediately notice beautiful terrazzo floors throughout and a great room with a vaulted ceiling. Theres an adjacent dining area which is an extension of the updated kitchen and all of these spaces look out through what appears to be a wall of glass dedicated to the world class view of flora and fauna. Open up these sliders and expand your living space out on to the creatively shaped deck which functions as a viewing platform over this southerly vista. Imagine the winter sunrises and sunsets youll be able to enjoy. The master bedroom, also with views and access to the back yard has been upgraded with a separate tub and walk in shower. The den/office can be made more private with sliding pocket doors and function as a guest bedroom. It even has a dedicated, enclosed patio and garden space linking it to the front entry should visitors prefer to come and go without entering the main house. Theres an attached, oversized garage with room for your workshop and utility room, a double wide driveway with plenty of parking, a regulated irrigation system, well considered landscaping and plenty of evidence this property has been cherished over time. While this home has been appropriately updated and improved over the years youll find its all been done with a great sensibility to the original intent, quality and hipness so many are learning to appreciate, again.

Lovingly maintained two bed, two bath pool home with a large two car garage. This comfortable and clean ranch is in far northwest Bradenton, close to important amenities like HCA Florida Blake Hospital, the shopping corridor of Manatee Avenue and of course the lovely island paradise of Anna Maria Island! Everything is “move in ready” so be prepared to start enjoying the Florida lifestyle, immediately. The AC system was replaced in 2023. The roof was replaced in 2024. The electrical panel was replaced in 2025. The new paver driveway, for maximum curb appeal was laid in 2024. The list goes on, but you must see this one. Classic Florida features include the deep eaves to block the sun and a long, generous front porch. The foyer entry has a cool slate floor, and the “semi open” plan brings you into a large living room which flows into dining space with an adjacent patio. The light, bright kitchen overlooks a sunny family room and here you can start to pick up on some of the mid-century features. Large pocketing sliders bring the outside in by accessing the covered porch, pool, and vaulted lanai. You can entertain right from your kitchen with guests at the breakfast bar but there are also pocketing “service windows” should you need to pass refreshments out to poolside friends. The owner’s suite has outdoor access (what true Florida ranch wouldn’t?) and a spacious bath with an original dual vanity and “Japanese” tiled shower. Did we already mention “mid-century” hipster vibe in some of these rooms? This home has a split plan so your guests will have plenty of privacy in their bed/bath combo on the far side of the house. The classic pool is large enough for laps and there is still plenty of yard left for gardening, pets or just plain old “elbow room”. The irrigation is from a well. The oversized garage has plenty of storage. Live here and you will NOT be in a flood zone. Live here and you will be on the same electrical grid as Blake Hospital. Needless to say this property was not impacted by the 2024 storm season and remains high and dry at 27 feet in elevation.

This 2-bed, one bath home with system updates (plumbing, AC, electrical service) will surprise you with architectural features reminiscent of the grand Mediterranean Revival estates nearby along Bay Shore Road. It sits far back on a deep lot leaving the spacious front yard a sunny spot for gardening. The entrance is through a covered screen porch with a flagstone floor. The decorative, solid wood front door has an original “speakeasy” window. The entry foyer is accented with a tile inlay mosaic. Most dramatic is the great room with a beamed, vaulted ceiling and a fireplace so large it probably once heated the entire house. Sliding doors open to the covered porch greatly expanding the indoor/outdoor living area. The primary bedroom with light streaming in from three sides, has a unique tile floor and decorative built ins for storage. The second bedroom, with a coffered ceiling of pecky cypress also has sliders leading to a large paver stone courtyard. Updates include granite counters in the small galley kitchen and a new tile floor in the bath but don’t forget to check out the “peachy” mid-century tiled walls. Other improvements you may not see are new water and waste lines, a newer AC system and 200-amp electrical service. The original, detached garage/carport was enclosed for storage space but could easily be “put back” to its original use. Maybe you would want to improve it and create more living space. It helps frame the courtyard creating and intimate and private space. This is a small house that lives large. If you have ever dreamed of living in and “Old Florida” Mediterranean manse but could not afford the price tag (or did not need the space) this is your chance to have one as a pied a terre in the City of Sarasota. This property is just up the road from the beautiful Indian Beach Park directly on the shore of Sarasota Bay and just a few parcels away from the Ringling College of Art and Design. Since it is less than 2 miles from downtown Sarasota don’t be surprised to see neighbors bicycling to the farmers market on Saturday. St. Armands Circle and the beaches of Lido and Longboat Key are also just a short jaunt over the Ringling Bridge.
