Don't miss this "West of the Trail" opportunity. Rarely available, this Landings Carriage house is one of only two freestanding villas. A unique floor plan with entry from the single car garage directly into the villa, very convenient when raining. Plenty of living and entertaining space in this two bedroom with den villa as both the side and back lanais are now enclosed for all season use. For your outdoor enjoyment, there is a private patio retreat. The galley kitchen has been updated with neutral tone wood cabinetry, granite counter tops, and a convenient pass through to the den with breakfast bar. The living room is spacious and has crown molding and a wood burning fireplace with marble surround. There are California shutters in the living room and bedrooms. A private community pool for the Carriage house villas is located nearby. The Landings is a 24-hour gated west of the Trail community offering lush landscaping, winding roads, a nature trail, kayak storage and a newly built kayak launch area. Enjoy fishing from the private gazebo on the ICW or just enjoy the boats going up and down the waterway.. The Landings Racquet Club is optional membership and is a focal point for social activities, pool and spa, tennis with Har-Tru surface, pickle ball, and fitness center. The Landings is an easy drive to downtown Sarasota, award winning Siesta Key beach, and a vibrant revitalized shopping center is located just outside the gate.
