This timeless gem is back on the market! Another chance to own this very charming mid-century pool-home that is backed by a private secret garden, nestled in an off-shoot channel of Phillippi Creek, and waiting for YOU. If you are looking for a private, oversized lot with your very own wild, "Old-Florida" style retreat -- look no more. This block home features vaulted ceilings in the sunroom with classic cedar walls, and floor to ceiling original windows. Cool Terrazzo floors cover most of the home, and two living room spaces with a separate wood-burning fireplace facing each side just waiting to host cocktail parties. The kitchen shows off a bold, blue formica counter with a cozy sit-in kitchen -- and a nearby formal dining room for you to enjoy family dinners. Two of the bedrooms have two mini-walk-in closets that can serve as a separate his and hers, and the two rooms share a hallway bathroom with double sinks, a shower and a tub. On the other side of the home there is a third, small flex room which could make a great bedroom for an infant, office or guest bedroom with a folding futon. Both bathrooms are retro style with some original features. On hot Florida days, enjoy Margaritas by the salt-water pool. Salt system is owned (not leased), a new pool pump was installed in 2022, and solar panels for heating were replaced in 2021. Your feet won't get hot with this cool-deck, and the pool area is entirely caged-in for comfort. The lot is oversized with room for building an addition. The house was replumbed with PVC pipes, and offers reverse osmosis filtration system. Located in the established neighborhood of South Gate, this property is minutes away from everything -- downtown, beaches, restaurants, shopping, great schools, the South Gate Community Center designed by mid-century school of architecture Victor Lundy, Sarasota Memorial Hospital, Arlington Park, and more. This place is magical, and awaits your personal touches.
