Welcome to your slice of Sarasota paradise! This fully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom VILLA is tucked away in the lush, tree-lined community of The Meadows- one of Sarasota's most sought-after neighborhoods. With scenic walking and biking trails just outside your door, and two sparkling pools within reach (one is just 10 steps away), this home blends serenity, style, and convenience in one beautiful package. Step inside the home, and immediately notice the light-filled, open-concept layout featuring vaulted ceilings, neutral tones, and clean lines that create an airy, coastal feel. The great room design is perfect for cozy nights in or entertaining friends, while the custom kitchen is as functional as it is fabulous, featuring smart storage solutions and sleek finishes. Each generously sized bedroom features its own full ensuite bathroom, and you'll love the added practicality of a dedicated laundry room with bonus pantry storage. Throughout the home, you'll find ceramic tile flooring, stylish shiplap accents, and modern millwork thoughtfully curated to give the space a polished yet inviting feel. Start your mornings with coffee on the sunny front patio off the kitchen, or unwind in the evening on your fully screened private lanai, surrounded by lush gardens that provide tremendous privacy. The spacious front yard and entryway include a two-car driveway with covered parking and easy, step-free access straight into the home. The community of The Meadows spans over 1,650 acres. It is a haven of nature and activity, with over 14 miles of scenic trails for jogging, walking, or biking. Picture daily walks under canopied oaks and peaceful moments by any of the 85 lakes that dot this lushly landscaped community. Located just minutes from it all: UTC shopping, fine dining, Nathan Benderson Park, and the new Mote Aquarium, to name just a few nearby amenities. Oh, and of course, the world-famous Gulf Coast beaches and downtown Sarasota are just a short drive away. This impeccably kept villa isn't just a home, it's a lifestyle. And it's waiting for you. This single-story villa comes fully furnished or unfurnished, depending on your short-term (3-month minimum) or long-term rental needs - rates vary. Bonus for annual lease tenants: You'll receive a Renaissance Pass, granting full access to the Meadows resident amenities. The Meadows is a 24/7 security-patrolled community with a strict no overnight truck or RV parking. An HOA application is required for residency in The Meadows. Pets are okay with an additional security deposit; however, only one dog is allowed- HOA regulation.
