Built in 2004 with quality and functionality in mind, this home is perfect for an investor or someone who won’t need immediate occupancy as there’s a wonderful tenant that would like to stay. Privacy is insured from both the front setback and its backyard with a high fenced in lot. Newer homes in this location are hard to find. How often can you find a home in this price range with white cabinetry, granite counters offering lots of workspace, all stainless appliances, ceramic tile, and laminate wood flooring? Open floor plan with volume ceilings add to the charm. You’ll enjoy the covered screened patio which leads to another open paver patio. Located in a great school district and just a block to Bee Ridge Park where sports, picnics and gardening are enjoyed. Of course, the beach and an abundance of shopping and dining are close by. Home has been connected to county sewer and all fees have been paid. Not in flood zone.

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.
