8648 GREAT MEADOW DR, Sarasota, FL 34238

Exceptional updates, a unique location with splendid water view, and one of the largest lots currently offered in Turtle Rock set this home apart, and will leave a lasting impression. The beautiful new brick driveway ($7600), new tile roof ($30,000) and large front patio are your first indication of the quality within. Inside, the superb renovation has touched every square inch, including a brand new kitchen ($26,000) with solid wood cabinets, Samsung appliances, and premium granite counter tops. Pet-friendly tile and hardwood floors ($24,000+), new bathrooms ($25,000), crown molding in main living areas, and tasteful decor complete the image of an inviting and comfortable living space. While the interior is beautiful, outdoor living is equally inviting. The oversized covered lanai and pool offer complete privacy and tranquil water views, and the large back yard provides plenty of room for outdoor activities. A surprising feature is an additional 30' by 14' brick paver patio with a 3 1/2' high privacy wall and gate. With exposure to the south and west it is ideal for sunbathing, but with a little imagination it could easily become a garden, a dog run, or perhaps an expansion of the existing footprint of the home. All major components of the property are up to date, including HVAC (2013), pool heater and water heater (2011). This home may be the most appealing opportunity currently offered in this price range anywhere in Palmer Ranch, so serious buyers would be wise to schedule a showing today.
