4882 TIVOLI AVE SARASOTA FL 34235 MLS #A4606999

A villa with a view! Not just any view but possibly the best view in Tivoli Village!!! When you enter this villa, pause and take in the open airiness of the Great Room with the soaring vaulted ceiling. Then wander out either set of the double French doors onto the glass enclosed Florida Room to gaze out on Lake DeSoto, the largest spring-fed lake in the community and set against the background of the natural beauty of the Florida landscape. This home provides an unparalleled sense of privacy while feeling like the flora and fauna are part of the décor. Enjoy the constant parade of cranes, heron, spoonbills, ospreys and the occasional bald eagle. From there, continue the tour to the enclosed private, screened side courtyard that runs the entire width of the villa. With pavers, tropical landscaping, and orchids, it’s the perfect place to take the party outdoors. Going back inside though the sliding glass doors to the eat-in Kitchen you’ll find a Bosch dishwasher, a newer LG refrigerator and microwave (2022). The Kitchen is open to the Great Room and has access to the formal eating area. The Laundry Room, off the Kitchen, is complete with a Samsung washer & dryer (2023). As you continue the tour to the ensuite Owners’ suite, note that all windows have Plantation Shutters. The Owners’ bathroom is complete with a double vanity with framed mirror, separate shower and garden tub. The other two Bedrooms share a Bathroom. The HOA is responsible for the maintenance, repair and replacement of the exterior surfaces of the residential villas, including the exterior walls (which were painted last year) and the tile roofs, maintenance of the lush grounds, management of the irrigation system as well as providing insurance for the exterior and roof of each villa. (See HOA docs for specific details.) Giving you time to launch your kayak or canoe at the community dock or cast a line and fish to your heart’s content. Bird watch or hike along the lake trail which features a wooden bridge and gazebo. The nearby Longwood Park offers tennis, pickle ball, basketball, baseball, a picnic pavilion and a playground. Located not far from the bustle of University Parkway, when you turn onto Longwood Run, you’ll enter a world where things slow down and you’ll want to feast your eyes on the colorful and well-manicured landscaping and majestic oak trees. Tivoli Village/Longwood Villas is located near both UTC Mall and Benderson Park and is convenient to I-75, Lakewood Ranch Mainstreet, SRQ airport, the Asolo Theater, the Ringling Museum, downtown Sarasota, shopping, restaurants, and of course, our world-renowned beaches. This lovingly cared for villa is ready for a new Owners’ vision and personal touch. This one-of-a-kind view can’t be duplicated! It’s a must see! Schedule your private showing today!!!
