County club living in culturally rich Sarasota. Discover a refined way of living at University Park Country Club, where gated luxury meets a delightful blend of community, recreation, culture and convenient location west of Interstate 75. Thrive on year-round access to 27 holes of four-star golf, four pickleball courts, 11 Har-Tru lighted courts with competitive league play, fitness center, recreational paths through mature lush landscaping, and a vibrant social calendar welcoming you into the community where new friendships begin. A casual favorite of the club is the outdoor patio bar and grill with serene views of the lake and golf course. This is the community setting to our luxury waterfront sun-filled residence, sited on an oversized lot with mature landscaping and lake view. Built in 2003 by Pat Neal, the home enjoys oversized windows and sliding glass doors opening to the screened pool patio area, a 2020 roof, 10-foot ceilings, all lending to a secure sunny, airy Florida feel. The intelligent split floor plan surprises you with a large bonus room in the rear of the house with sliding glass doors to the pool and a big window facing the trees. There is a wonderful flow between the living room and the kitchen family room, keeping it separate and open. It gives space for guests and places to simply be. The kitchen serves as heart of the home with a center island, breakfast bar, dry bar connecting to the dining room and a delightful breakfast area with a glistening view of the lake. The guest wing offers two bedrooms, a sunny bonus room and two full hallway baths. The primary suite has two walk-in closets, separate vanities, tub, a walk-in shower and water closet. The large bedroom has a sitting area and a door accessing the pool patio. The pool patio has a covered area for shade and open areas for sunning, a spa, heated pool and a swim-in-place pool mechanism for exercise. Location is mere minutes to all shopping, restaurants, Benderson Park, Mote Marine and seven miles to downtown Sarasota, the heart of the Cultural Coast of Florida with café-lined streets, live theatre, music and art festivals, ballet, opera, museums, colleges, marinas and waterfront parks. Come live the dream!
