2858 Bahia Vista St., Sarasota, FL 34239

One of the first homes built on Bahia Vista Street! The artist's canvas is ready for the artist's first brush strokes to lovingly restore this historic 2 bedroom/1 bath home to it's original 1920's splendor! It's distinctive Spanish Mediterranean aura sets it apart from your typical contemporary Florida home and is definitely not a "cookie cutter". No question this home needs some work and could be classified as a fixer upper but with a little elbow grease it could become a jewel. Wood floors under the carpet could be restored. Wood burning fireplace could again be the focal point of the spacious living room. Grand foyer entrance offers a room off to the side which could be a sitting area for the avid reader. High ceilings give an open airy feel. As the roof is at the end of it's effective life, financing on this home may not be an option. Situated on a double lot with over 10,000 square feet. This allows plenty of room for a pool or expansion. Older homes always tend to have spacious bedrooms and that certainly is the case here. There is a 3rd room off the laundry that is currently be used for storage. This home offers a superb location as it is only minutes away from all of your shopping needs, fine restaurants, medical facilities and more. Only a short drive to the vibrant downtown Sarasota area or the number one beach in the country Siesta Key!
