Description

Starting from the colorfully landscaped front entrance to the ever-entertaining rear view of the lovely IMG golf course this is arguably, one of the best golf course and pond views in Valencia. As you enter the pavered private courtyard, you will be greeted with beautiful Florida fauna exploding with color, followed by a spacious screened lanai for year-round enjoyment. Proceeding through the front door, your eyes are immediately drawn to the fantastic view of the IMG golf course and pond surrounded by colorful bottle brush trees and the rolling slopes of the course. The new owners of this condo will appreciate the recently updated kitchen with pretty neutral color granite counters, undermount sinks, stainless appliances including a smoothtop range with warmer burner, and cottage style cabinets accented by coordinating, tumbled stone backsplash. It has been opened to the dining and living rooms allowing a full view of the pond and course as well as a convenient pass through. Newer vinyl plank flooring flows seamlessly from the entryway through the dining, living and Florida rooms. This home is offered turnkey furnished with the exception of some artwork and personal items. One unique feature is that it is a dual primary suite floor plan, both with walk in closets including two in the guest suite. They are carpeted, for maximum comfort, in a neutral color. The rear bedroom has sliders to the Florida room with more views of the golf course and the front bedroom has sliders to the lanai with views of the lovely courtyard. One bath features a tub and shower and the other a step-in shower. It is just a short distance to the maturely landscaped community pool and spa which have been tastefully updated with pavers and travertine and have chaises and tables to enjoy your resort style amenities. Valencia III is adjacent to the IMG Golf Course and is about 2 blocks to the IMG Golf Club and Restaurant for dining with an incredible Sarasota bayfront water view. If you have students enrolled in the world-famous IMG Academy, they're about a 4-minute drive to school. Approximately 10 minutes to Sarasota International Airport and 15 to 30 minutes to everything Manatee and Sarasota Counties have to offer from our incredible white, sugary sand beaches of Anna Maria Island to the trendy UTC Mall, revered Ringling Museum, Asolo Repertory Theater, treasured St. Armand's Circle, restaurants, houses of worship, theaters including live plays at the nearby State College of Florida Neel Auditorium, boating, golfing, fishing, sports teams including springtime professional baseball, polo matches & world class rowing competitions. The owners of this condo have taken great care and pride in their selections of decorating taste and it is perfect for full-time living or for our winter snowbirds. Come enjoy Florida living at its finest surrounded by the beautiful landscaping that Valencia Gardens is known for and the benefits of a lovely golfing community without the expense of mandated memberships. Again, this is a ground level home with no stairs to carry groceries or suitcases up. This phase of Valencia has no limits on pet size, so bring Fido along with you :) Be sure to add this to your tour of homes as it will not disappoint.
