Spacious 2BR/2BA Condo Near UTC – Low Fees, Park-like Setting! No age restrictions & pet friendly.
Discover the best blend of security, serenity, space and value in this rightsized 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo. If you’re looking for a home that prioritizes efficiency and location over expensive amenities, look no further. You will enjoy a lovely, park-like view from your private balcony. It’s the perfect spot to start and end your day. There are wide and solid steps with handrails on both sides to walk up one level to this secure 2nd floor unit. Once inside, one level living makes everything easier. Running an errand? No problem! Your parking spot, just steps away from your door, is always reserved just for you. With an in-unit washer and dryer, that’s one errand you won’t be running!

The Best Value in Sarasota: Skip the high maintenance costs of pools and gyms you don’t use. You just found the perfect 2/2 that won’t break the bank with monthly fees. This impeccably maintained community offers unbeatably low HOA fees ($520.50) that cover your water/sewer, cable TV, interior/exterior pest control, exterior power washing/maintenance, irrigation/landscaping maintenance, as well as common area taxes, insurance and expenses. All you need to turn on is the internet ($40 avg./mo) and electricity ($50 avg/mo). Condo Insurance is around $1,200/yr.

Unbeatable Location: Just minutes from University Town Center (UTC) for world-class dining, shopping and entertainment as well as Longwood Run Park for walking trails, playgrounds, picnic areas, sports courts (tennis, basketball, & pickleball) plus indoor spaces and a community center. Enjoy a short drive to your choice of Sarasota’s award-winning white-sand beaches. If you are a frequent traveler, this ‘lock & leave’ property will be here when you return! You have easy access to (5) five international/regional airports within (90) ninety minutes of your new home (SRQ, PIE, TPA, RSW & PGD) along with (4) four aviation/local airports (VNC, SPG, CLW, TPF). If cruising is more your speed, you are approximately an hour away from the Tampa Cruise Terminal and can access other cruise terminals across the state in under 4 hours.

Simple, affordable living in a nice area with a peaceful setting. Perfect location for full-time residents, snowbirds, or investors. The Seller will consider a credit at closing for buying down a mortgage rate, closing costs, condo fees, home warranty or other allowable items. Let’s work together to make this work for everyone.
