About This Home

This unique home is in the desirable neighborhood of Harbor Acres. World renowned Selby Botanical Gardens is less than a mile from your new home. This mid-century jewel was built in 1956 and was originally a 2/2. The original bathrooms are still in their original state and are in good condition providing a cool retro vibe. The original hardwood floors and fireplace exude warmth and sophisticated charm. The current owner purchased the home in 1989 and remodeled the kitchen and added a new wing on the house with 2 additional large bedrooms ensuite with baths. Copious amounts of storage in all 4 bedrooms and a huge laundry room with lots of closet space as well. The garage is oversize and there is a picturesque circular driveway for ample parking. There is plenty of room to put in a pool of your own design. The house was re-roofed in 2018. Some of the most beautiful homes in Sarasota are your neighbors in Harbor Acres. And Flower Drive is a special address with the highly sought after Southside Elementary School just 1-mile away, you can’t beat this property. In real estate it is all about Location, Location, Location. This home has plenty of room for the family, so, come on home!
