Under contract-accepting backup offers. Live in and enjoy a prime Sarasota location with this updated 2/2 w/ den POOL home nestled in one of Gulf Gate’s most desirable districts. This home is laid out in a split, functional floor plan, providing for a spacious feel, and includes a generously sized living and dining areas. The kitchen offers gorgeous solid-surface countertops and wood cabinetry, with an abundant amount of storage. Both bedrooms have sliding doors out to the pool deck, while two sets of pocketing sliders in the common spaces keep the home filled with natural light. An absolutely massive pool deck completely caged (recently rescreened) in and partially covered by roof to provide a large, shaded area, is perfect for entertaining, hosting large gatherings, bbqs, and enjoying Florida’s year-round sunny weather. The backyard is fully fenced, and the property backs up to a former golf course, meaning no immediate neighbors to the back and more privacy. So many upgrades have been done for the next owner’s peace of mind: all impact windows done in 2022 (steel shutters also included for added peace of mind!), new electrical panel in 2018, 2019 A/C, re-plumbed in 2013, and the flat roof over the pool was re-roofed in 2018. Gulf Gate Woods is one of Gulf Gate's nicest and most sought-after subdivisions. It is only minutes to Sarasota’s world-famous Siesta Key beach, just a stone’s throw from the shops and restaurant at Gulf Gate’s west end, right around the corner from the wonderful Gulf Gate Library, and convenient to so much more that the city has to offer. 2737 Cardwell Way is right for anyone: seasonal residents, first time home buyers, or those simply looking to enjoy the good life in Florida.
