Property Description
**BACK ON MARKET! Buyer's financing fell through.** Tucked away on 2.15 private acres in the heart of DeSoto Acres, this One-of-a-Kind 3-bedroom, 3-bath property captures the essence of “Country Estates in the Heart of Town.” Spanning more than 850 acres of 2+ acre homesites, DeSoto Acres—renamed in 1945—remains Sarasota County’s largest RE-1 low-density community, celebrated for its rustic charm, canopy roads, and equestrian-friendly lifestyle just minutes from city conveniences. This inviting home offers exceptional versatility, making it an ideal primary residence, investment opportunity, or income-producing rental. Step inside to a welcoming, light-filled Florida sunroom that flows seamlessly into a screened patio—perfect for enjoying peaceful mornings and breezy evenings surrounded by nature. The thoughtfully designed layout includes a spacious primary suite with an en suite bathroom, large walk-in closet and a slider door that provides access to the tranquil side yard. A guest bedroom features a bonus den with direct access to a screened rear porch—an ideal retreat overlooking the shady, tree-filled preserve where birdsong and natural beauty abound. Adding even more value is a private 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with a kitchenette and separate entrance (completed in 2024), offering excellent potential for rental income, guest accommodations, or multigenerational living. The cozy main living area is anchored by a striking rock hearth fireplace and complemented by a Vermont Castings wood-burning stove, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Recent upgrades include impact entry doors and a newer hot water heater for added peace of mind. Practical features abound with a 2-car carport, an attached 2.5-car garage, and ample storage space. Outdoors, the expansive property truly shines—featuring a 20' x 10' livestock corral ready for chickens, mini cows, or even a horse. With no deed restrictions, you’ll enjoy unmatched freedom, privacy, and the flexibility to create your own country lifestyle. This is a rare opportunity to own a slice of Old Florida charm with room to grow, invest, and live freely—all in a highly sought-after Sarasota location.
