Welcome to this jewel near the beaches! Gulf Gate is all about location and your new home awaits right in the heart of it. Just over the bridge from Siesta Key and around the corner from Gulf Gate library, this home has everything you would love from a home with relaxing lake views. As you walk through the door, you'll step into an oversized living room with dining room just off the side. Most of the home is carpeted, but terrazo flooring lies beneath!

The master bedroom connects to the master bathroom with a walk-in closet.

Open the shutters, and you'll be looking over your grand lot with a small pond off to the back. Perfect for a pool, playground or whatever you'd like! The kitchen connects to the Florida room through a bartender's window and breakfast nook off to the side. In between the breakfast nook and kitchen has the garage door that will lead you to your 2-car garage. Just past the nook is the laundry room with washer/dryer, sink and storage. Past the laundry room, you may walk out to your enclosed back porch and listen to the sounds of the birds while enjoying your coffee or paper. Newer roof (2017) and home has been replumbed. This home has structure, storage and space with a huge backyard and view of the lake. A quiet neighborhood with access to city life in every direction gives this jem near the beach every opportunity to live the Florida lifestyle.
