Short Sale! This home has been lovingly maintained. All of the big ticket items have already been replaced, new roof in 2009, new air conditioner in 20007, new kitchen & appliances in 2007. Original parquet floors look good. Carport was converted to family room with shelving & storage at the end. Behind that wall there is a laundry room & extra bath. The lot is next to open land & backs to the rail road track. This provides a very private large yard, with beautiful mature oak trees. Add to that the convenience of being a 2 minute drive or 10 minute walk to down town and you can enjoy the cultural and social events in thriving down town Sarasota. Only a 12 minute drive to Lido beach and beautiful St. Armands Circle. Although this is a short sale there is only one small bank involved.
