5001 STEVENS DR, Sarasota, FL 34234

Welcome to Sapphire Heights surrounded by Sapphire Shores and Indian Beach which together form a trio of desirable neighborhoods West of the Trail in North Sarasota. This charming 3 bedroom/2 bathroom home boasts character and is situated on a sizable lot with mature landscaping. In 2000 a Florida room was added with new windows, sliding doors, built in book shelves as well as cabinets and ceramic tile which increased the living area. Also in 2000 carpet was removed and the ever popular original terrazzo floors were refinished and sealed. Terrazzo is cool, easily maintained and practical in Florida. Master bathroom shower was also updated. Kitchen breakfast bar and cabinets were added as well. One thing this home has is storage room with all 3 bedrooms having walk in closets and tons of cabinet space. Aside from the one car attached garage the driveway was expanded and now has a two car carport which is a plus. This home is in the center of the "Arts" world in Sarasota with the Ringing Art Museum and Asolo Theatre just to the north and the Ringling School of Art a few blocks to the south. Perfect to get the creative juices flowing in this home's 20 x20 detached building which is an artists paradise. Light & bright with it's own A/C and hepa filter. It would also work well for other types of hobbies and interests. Possibilities are endless. Sapphire Heights is only a short drive to the vibrant downtown where restaurants & theatres abound. NEW ROOF AUGUST 2017!!!
