Those familiar with mid-century Sarasota might recognize this as a 1965 Ruth Richmond ranchette. That means we have a quality-built house. The extra steps Richmond Homes took are legendary and can still be found in surviving brochures. Superior lot preparation, material choices, efficient floor plans, large pocketing glass doors to bring the outside in for the Florida Lifestyle. But when you view this property dont expect to find frozen in time, kitschy features for this place has been transformed. Most buildings grow and adapt. Some that are well loved, become part of a continual flow as our needs and uses change over time. While this house still presents a modest exterior, what lies behind is now a three bed, two bath house, with a charming coastal cottage aesthetic. Inside you'll find a split plan, a private interior porch/courtyard, a luxurious master bath Ruth Richmond would have highly approved of (Ive seen her actual home on Bird Key) and a unique floorplan allowing multiple uses. Thats the difference today. We want home offices. We need room for live in family members. We want rental income. How about the Zoom Room? A second living room with a bar and kitchenette? This property has it all and functions as a fun, modern ranch just as well as a 2 bed 1 bath with an adjacent 1 bed 1 bath dwelling. Its a large lot in a non-deed restricted neighborhood so theres room for the boat or RV and still plenty of space for a garage or pool. This is what many people appreciate about the Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores neighborhood. Youll be surrounded by your neighbors pride of ownership in an eclectic bay front neighborhood but enjoy the freedom of avoiding planned communities with their exorbitant fees and regulations. Live here to be nestled between many of Sarasotas most prominent cultural and educational institutions. These include the John & Mable Ringling Museum of Art, the Asolo Theater of Performing Arts, New College of Florida and the Ringling College of Art & Design. Just minutes north of downtown Sarasota and the Ringling Bridge which spans to serene Gulf of Mexico beaches on Lido and Longboat Key.

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. 5027 Remington Drive, in the Indian Beach/Sapphire Shores neighborhood is a unique opportunity. It has all the construction features needed today. Although, its 10 years young it was so progressively designed and built in 2010 I doubt it could be improved. All original plans exist as does the complete list of contractors and tradesmen involved. In short, this is a storm hardened, impact resistant, energy efficient home with more detail than can be shared in this space. 100% masonry walls, laminated glass, metal hip roof, insulated roof decking, instant hot water heaters and more. But this is like describing a high-performance, luxury automobile by focusing on the engine. Maybe you are more interested in the vaulted ceilings, polished concrete floors and open plan which feels like urban loft living. Or does a double en-suite, split floor plan rank higher on your list? Powder room for guests? Coolest, decorative, electric fireplace around? All stainless appliance package nestled into bright red, lacquered cabinets with smoke glass doors? Stainless steel kitchen counters with metallic back splash? Topping it all off is a house wide, covered, rear lanai overlooking the yard which clearly has room for a pool or accessory structure. This house is perfect as a lock it and leave it seasonal residence but I suspect the next occupant will be reluctant to ever leave. And, if you are reading this you already know we are just minutes from downtown Sarasota with immediate neighbors like the John & Mable Ringling Museum, the Asolo Theater of Performing Arts, New College of Florida and Ringling College of Art & Design.

Enjoy a maintenance free, Florida Lifestyle in this spacious 3-bed, 2 bath, ground floor condominium in Waterlefe Golf and River Club. This enclave of "townhome style" condominiums on Discovery Terrace are beautifully appointed with Mediterranean architectural features and large paver stone driveways and walkways.

On the morning sun side of this home is the open plan, living area with a designated dining room, a large, central kitchen island, and a comfortable family room. The entire great room opens to the spacious, double wide lanai and this specific location has long views down the 8th fairway and the tree line along the Manatee River beyond. This view is also available from the master suite and it creates a sense of privacy and space. Other amenities to be found in the “owner’s enclave” include a walk-in closet, double vanities and a “degree of separation” from the two guest bedrooms because this split plan gives everyone their privacy. But most important is the Community. Waterlefe Golf & River Club has something for every generation. The full list of amenities is too long for this space but include the River Club clubhouse, a restaurant, sunset tiki bar, Junior Olympic swimming pool, fitness center and a host of social activities. You can even choose a Golf Club membership or Marina membership with available boat slips on the Manatee River. There are kayak racks by a comfortable launch, a playground for the little ones and nature trails for the bird watchers. You will find something for everyone in Waterlefe Golf & River Club.

Move in Ready and not impacted by recent storms. Recently renovated 2 bed, 2 bath Villa in the sought after Center Gate Community. A change in plans has the owners putting this home on the market after recently completing significant upgrades & improvements in 2023 and 2024. A tiled front porch leads to a foyer entry and opens to the combined Living Room and Dining Room. The kitchen has been “opened up” to overlook the family room and the sight lines will take your eye through to the Florida Room, the greenspace and community pool beyond. This is now a wonderfully spacious open plan more suited for today’s lifestyles. These living areas have been made contiguous with gleaming Brazilian cherry laminate floors, crown molding and updated fixtures & fans. The kitchen has quartz counters and an ample breakfast bar with a “waterfall” countertop feature. This is also an “eat in kitchen” with room for a full-sized dinette. The stainless steel appliance package is from 2023 and a beautifully decorative backsplash pops with color. The adjacent utility room has matching counters and backsplash and works as a prep kitchen as much as an interior laundry. The principal bedroom has an ensuite bath with granite counters and a walk-in closet. The second bedroom has multiple closets and access to the second bath and tiled shower. The bedrooms are carpeted for coziness while the kitchen and utility room are tiled. Keep an eye out for the decorative inlay which is coordinated with the backsplash motif. What was a “sun porch” has been elevated to the floor height of the rest of the home and now has the same Brazilian cherry floors. This space is air conditioned and adds square footage to the overall living area. The oversized, 2-car garage has a rubberized floor and hurricane rated overhead door. The roof with gutters and sunroof were replaced a year ago and have a transferrable warranty. The plumbing has been relined (2024), impact resistant windows are throughout, and the new hot water heater was installed earlier this year. The Sellers would consider putting a Home Warranty on this property but just about everything is still under warranty! This home is ready for you to move right in and start enjoying one of the most convenient locations in all of Sarasota County. Live here and you are minutes away from Doctors Hospital, I 75, all your shopping needs and a host of restaurants and entertainment venues. This development is not in a flood zone and remained “high and dry” in 2024. There are still affordable and intelligent places to live in Sarasota and 5725 Center Pointe Lane is one of them.

Rarely available, largely original, Sapphire Shores, mid century ranch. The owner has done the "heavy lifting" by putting in impact resistant windows along with a newer AC (2014) and roof (2007) but everything else has been left to you. This is a beautiful "blank slate" should you choose to restore the home in it's chic mid century appeal with stunning terrazzo floors, original kitchen and bath fixtures and even a back yard shuffle board court just beyond the screen porch! Or, you will find this property is in a perfect location for your renovation project with plenty of room for expansion into the spacious and private back yard. In any event, it is superbly clean and Move In Ready. Public records show a two bed, two bath home but it would appear to have been built as a 3 bedroom house. The 3rd bedroom is currently used a den/office and has an entry into the Living Room and a second in to the kitchen. The master bath is a "Jack & Jill" shared with another bedroom so "original floor plan" may mean "cozy" to some. But, rest assured there is no finer location than this West of Bay Shore neighborhood adjacent to Sarasota's most magnificent cultural institutions and just a half block to Sun Circle Park on the shores of Sarasota Bay. It's just a couple miles to downtown Sarasota and a 12 minute drive up and over the John Ringling bridge to St. Armands Circle and the Gulf of Mexico beaches on Lido Key.
