We golf and boat and are passionate about Sarasota's natural beauty and cultural attractions. We are realtors with Michael Saunders & Co. so we can answer any real estate questions you may have. We are happy to share our knowledge of restaurants and things to do in the area. We have a total of three rental properties all in the same downtown Sarasota neighborhood. We are proud of our great reviews. Message us if you have any questions
Why they chose this property
Our central downtown Sarasota location is one of the best places to stay to be close to everything you'll want to do while visiting. The residential neighborhood is quiet and safe. Walk or Bike to many popular destinations. Only 1 mile to downtown Main Street shops and restaurants. Super close for biking to the Legacy bike Trail and a short walk to the free trolley that takes you down Main St to St Armands and Lido Key beach. Walk to the Publix grocery store and Payne Park's 40 acres with playground, Tennis courts, skateboard park, and Frisbee golf. We are also close to Selby Gardens, Sarasota Bay and Marina Jacks/Bayfront Park Tiki bar and restaurants on the water and Bobby Jones Golf Course
What makes this property unique
All you have to do is read our five star reviews. Our guests appreciate coming into a clean well equipped home. Our central location is a big hit. We are close to everything. 1 mile to Main St. Down the street from the Legacy bike trail and free trolley to St Armands and Lido Key beach. The large fenced back yard is perfect for pet owners and families and the screened in back lanai/porch is comfortable for dining. The home is fully equipped and updated. It has a fully stocked kitchen. BBQ, Beach equipment, WIFI, work area and large smart TV with cable. The home has everything you will need if you like to eat at home. Again location is close to everything - We are close to Sarasota Bay. And only 7.5 miles to the Benderson Rowing Park. And just around the corner to the Dattoli Cancer Center, the Sarasota Memorial Hospital and Baltimore Oriole Spring Training. There is a city Golf course near by called Bobby Jones.
