Home in The Uplands! Tucked away from the hustle and bustle area just north of the art and education complexes of the Ringling Museum, Asolo Theatre, and Crosley Museum as well as New College and University of South Florida. The neighborhood of 110 homes, many by well known architects of the day developed in the late 1940's. Its charm comes from homes that all lead to the bay for observing terrific sunsets, listening to lapping water and the feel soft breezes. A private lake in the neighborhood is maintained by the surrounding owners and is home to a family of ducks - long time "residents". This home was built in 1949 as a 2 bedroom/1 bath residence. A two-story addition added a Master bedroom and bath in the mid-80's and has wonderful screen porch/ sitting area off bedroom. Mid-century details such as plaster walls and architectural details reminiscent of the era. Two screen porches - one on each level are perfect for watching and listening to the wildlife. Original garage has been converted to a an artist/craft studio with potting area and running water with a screened porch for observing the wildlife in the backyard garden. Newer A/C system, water heater and roof. Partially furnished as owner has downsized. Updating will make it your home in the trees!
