Four bedrooms, three full baths, a private den, and a screened pool — all on one level, all behind a tile roof and solid block-and-stucco construction. This is the Barbados VIII by Medallion Homes, and it is the floor plan buyers ask for and rarely find at this price.
The front door opens to a formal living and dining space framed by tray ceilings and plantation shutters. Beyond it, the home relaxes: a generous family room flows straight into a kitchen built for those who like to cook — granite counters, solid wood cabinetry, a butler's pantry for staging, and eating space that keeps the cook in the conversation.
The owner's retreat occupies its own wing, with a walk-in closet, sliders opening directly to the lanai, and a connected study that serves as a home office, gym, or quiet room without surrendering a bedroom. Three more bedrooms and two full baths sit on the opposite side of the house — a true split plan, so guests and household members keep their distance when they want it.
Sliding doors disappear into the wall and the living space doubles. The in-ground pool sits under full screen enclosure with a covered, screened lanai for shade — a private outdoor room, not just a backyard.
The practical details matter here: Flood Zone X, tile roof, hurricane shutters, oversized attached two-car garage, and no CDD fee. The low monthly HOA covers landscaping and irrigation, so your weekends stay yours. Brick paver sidewalks line the neighborhood.
Location does the rest: minutes to UTC Mall and the shops at University Parkway, ten minutes to Sarasota-Bradenton International, downtown Sarasota is just minutes away, and a short drive to the sugar-sand beaches of Lido, Longboat, and Siesta Key.
