4504 Bliss Road is truly a blissful place to be; it's a tropical garden paradise! The atmosphere surrounding this three-bedroom two bath home is enchanting. It's peaceful and secluded, sitting on more than 1/4 acre of lushly landscaped land. The property includes a charming pond with fountain; mature trees as well as banana, lemon, and avocado. There is a spa tub to soak in; an irrigation well pump with holding tank; a large detached studio guest room; and 10ft x 26ft screened lanai off the West side of the home. This home was built for Florida living! Do you love privacy? There are no neighbors to the left and right, and only one home slightly adjacent to the back. The home has 1,828 sq ft of air-conditioned space, (1,467 sq ft in the main house and 361sf in the guest studio). With the unheated areas such as the lanai, garage, utility and storage rooms, the total area is 2,341 sq ft. The home has beautiful Florida hard pine floors on the ground floor with an open floor plan for entertaining. The kitchen is spacious with updated appliances and there is access from the kitchen to the garage, laundry/utility area and a convenient storage room with shelving. The current owners have been great stewards of the home making improvements that include: a new roof in 2022 on both the detached guest house/studio and the shed attached to the back of the main house. The main house roof was installed approximately 8 years ago in 2014. They have freshly painted the interior and exterior; added exterior trim around the home, new frames & screens on both the breezeway and lanai; had the septic tank pumped, inspected, treated and a new lid constructed. Other items include: in 2021 a new automatic irrigation well pump was installed w/ holding tank for non-potable water for the garden; fence repairs & replacements were made including a new gate; added a shade sail; installed Bahama shutters; outdoor shower w/ hot & cold water; water feature with waterfall; low voltage Malibu lighting in the yard; home electrical maintenance completed; exterior/interior Arlo security camera system; spa & additional exterior outlet; mini-split HVAC system in guest studio added; water heater replaced; upgraded breaker panel; updated major kitchen appliances; renovated sink, hardware, shower & toilet in Primary bathroom; renovated sink, hardware & toilet in the hall bathroom; scheduled pest inspection, maintenance and treatment. The property has a 6ft high privacy fence. There is so much to share about this home! The pictures are great, and the 3D tour is terrific, but you'll likely fall in love when you schedule a tour and come see it in person. The location is central and it's about 5 miles to the beach.
A Blissful setting awaits you, tucked away in the trees of Bliss Road. There is tranquility and space to spread out making this a "Country Gem" while it is located well west of highway I75. It is close to the beaches and minutes from the Gulf of Mexico and also just minutes to shops, transportation, SRQ social amenities and more! Yet it feels like down home country inside of the gates with OVER a QUARTER of an ACRE of land. Step into this spacious two story you might experience blissful feelings of freedom with room to grow. Take a deep breath and enjoy the soaring voluminous ceiling before you. A large covered and screened porch on the west side of the home measures 27 feet by 10 feet for relaxing, watching the sunsets and entertaining. The separate out-building Studio measures 19 x 19 feet and may offer possibilities that might suit you. NOTE; SPA-TUB (OUTDOORS) DOES NOT CONVEY WITH THE SALE NOR DOES THE STAINED GLASS PIECE BETWEEN THE KITCHEN AND LIVING ROOM CONVEY. THE CONCH SHELLS THAT LINE THE GARDEN DO NOT CONVEY.

RSF-2
Residential Single-Family District
The RSF Districts permit single-family residential densities, which may take the form of single-family detached or cluster subdivisions; Cluster subdivisions may include lot line, traditional, patio, villa, atrium, duplex, or townhouse units. The nature of the use of property is the same in all RSF Districts, with variation among the RSF-1, RSF-2, RSF-3 and RSF-4 Districts in the requirements for density, lot area and width, and yards; A limited number of nonresidential uses are allowed, subject to the restrictions and requirements necessary to preserve and protect the single-family residential character of the neighborhood; The RSF Districts are generally used to implement the Comprehensive Plan within those areas shown as Low Density, Moderate Density and Medium Density Residential on the Future Land Use Map and on the Barrier Islands where the application of the district would not increase the density of development or hamper hurricane evacuation planning and disaster mitigation efforts. Locations on the Barrier Islands that have existing RSF zoning are acknowledged, and are considered to be consistent with the Future Land Use Map. The RSF-4 District is also used to implement the Comprehensive Plan in the areas shown as Office/Multifamily Residential Area and Corridor on the Future Land Use; The RSF-4 District, while not a primary implementing district, may also be allowed in Regional, Community, Village I, Village II, and Neighborhood Commercial Centers. Appropriate densities within the Low; Moderate or Medium Density Residential areas shall be guided by the density ranges as outlined in Future Land Use Policy 1.1.1, Objective 2.3, and Policy 2.3.1 of the Comprehensive Plan; These densities shall also be determined, in part, by the land use designations and developed residential areas surrounding the parcel.
