With over 400 feet of private water frontage, this property is truly your tropical oasis, quiet and peaceful, yet close to everything you need. The house itself has been continuously updated from 2017-2024.

This home is made for tropical living. It has an outdoor tiki hut with a bar and grill, 2 outdoor fire pits, 5 zone outdoor exterior low voltage automatic night lighting, a pool, spa and boat lift. Other upgrades include a new boat house in 2019, new seawall in 2023/2024, two new A/C in 2019, and septic to sewer conversion in 2018. Tucked away at the end of cul-de-sac in Phillippi Gardens, the location is ideal, While the neighbor is private and quiet, it is close to The Landings and other shopping and eatery venues, a short bike ride to Gulf beaches, and not far from the vibrant downtown of Sarasota and all its cultural and recreational offerings. You truly must see this amazing property to appreciate all it has to offer.
