This home away from home offers a prime location in a quiet neighborhood with a creek behind it and near Manasota Key beach and restaurants.

Back at the house, you and your family will enjoy marvelous water and nature views and a private outdoor swimming pool. Its serene atmosphere, open layout, and comfortable ambience make it feel just like home. Upon entering, you'll first come across the living room. This space comes equipped with basic furniture, however, it's a good place to hang out with your family and share entertaining conversations or plan your next moves. Continue your tour and you'll find a Florida room with a dining table and a ceiling fan; from here, you'll have great pool and water views. Owners call this view 'tropical Wisconsin'. Looking across the creek one sees nothing but trees. You never know when a fish will jump or an egret will fly by. As you continue, you'll encounter the kitchen, dining area, and a small family room. The kitchen features basic appliances and cookware to prepare delicious meals and snacks for the group, as well as conveniences like a new garbage disposal to make cleanup easier. The dining table seats guests (four new folding chairs are there if needed) and the family room has a ceiling fan, TV, a sofa, and an armchair. For other lounging options, try the screened lanai to feel the fresh air on your face. This convenient home also boasts a laundry room with a new washer/dryer combo, enough counter space, and a sink. Both bedrooms come equipped with ensuite bathrooms (one with a walk-in shower and the other with a tub/shower combo) and ceiling fans. The main bedroom also features a small, but convenient desk for remote work. The house includes a screened-in fiberglass pool and also sits on a creek for your boating and fishing needs.
