About This Home

(Español a continuación) Welcome to easy, low-maintenance living in Royal Palms, a friendly 55+ community tucked into south Sarasota, centrally located between some of Florida's best Gulf beaches. Lot rent is just $810 a month and covers water, sewer, trash, lawn care, landscaping, and full use of the amenities. Only electricity is separate, so budgeting stays simple and predictable. This 1966 single-wide lives far larger than its footprint suggests. A spacious enclosed addition with windows runs along the home, adding a huge, light-filled bonus space you will enjoy year-round. Picture it as a sunroom, den, hobby room, or second living room, flexible square footage a typical single-wide simply does not offer. That extra livable space is a genuine rarity for a home this size and makes it feel more like a house than a trailer. Aluminum siding and awnings keep the exterior crisp and tidy, and a double-layer metal roof-over (more than ten years old) adds durability and helps keep the home cool. Inside, the kitchen features durable laminate flooring, a gas range, a refrigerator, and generous cabinet storage for the home cook. A handy storage hutch adds even more room in the main living area. The comfortable bedroom offers a large closet, a wall AC unit, a ceiling fan, and plenty of natural light. The full bathroom includes a tub, an oversized vanity, and ample storage throughout. The single-level layout means no stairs and easy, everyday living, with room to add your own finishing touches. Comfort is covered with an exterior AC unit plus the dedicated bedroom wall unit. Outside, a big driveway fits at least two vehicles, there is no rear neighbor for added privacy, and the street stays quiet and peaceful, exactly the calm setting so many buyers are after. Royal Palms keeps you social with a large heated pool, an activity center with a full kitchen, shuffleboard, a library, on-site laundry, free WiFi, and a packed calendar of bingo, card games, dances, and potlucks. It is the kind of community where neighbors become friends. The location is hard to beat. Tee off at Stoneybrook Golf and Country Club, about 5 minutes away. Explore trails and spot Florida scrub-jays at Oscar Scherer State Park, roughly 10 minutes south. Wander the bayfront gardens of Historic Spanish Point, about 8 minutes away. Take in the orchids at Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, around 20 minutes north. And sink your toes into the world-famous quartz sand of Siesta Key Beach, only about 15 minutes away. Everyday needs are close too, with Westfield Sarasota mall about a mile away, Gulf Gate's dining district minutes north, and Sarasota Memorial Hospital roughly 13 minutes away. Whether you are downsizing, snowbirding, or settling in full time, this home delivers comfort and value in one of Sarasota's most convenient 55+ settings. With an unbeatable location, low monthly costs, and room to spread out, homes like this in Royal Palms do not last long.
