Welcome to Bliss Meadow, a small community comprising of only 3 homes all on one acre lots which gives you room to breathe between you and your neighbor! This can only be a plus in a city that seems to be building on smaller and smaller lots. Do you dream of storing your boat and RV as well as other toys on one property which you call home? Well look no farther as this home offers an RV garage with workshop as well as a carport behind which can store a boat. This lovely 3 bedroom/2bathroom home has over 2000 square feet under air with a large extended screened outdoor lanai and an attached two car garage. The lanai is perfect for your grilling needs as you entertain overlooking a beautiful and expansive back yard. Plenty of room to roam and if you so desire to add a swimming pool. The home offers a very open, light and airy floor plan with vaulted ceilings and a wood burning fireplace in the living room for those chilly Florida nights in winter. Attractive ceramic tile graces the home throughout. The great room design will provide many furnishing and decorating ideas for the creative mind. The kitchen boasts a pass through and granite counter tops as well as stainless steel appliances and tons of custom storage cabinets. The sitting area off the kitchen is currently being used as an office with built in desks and shelving. Plantation shutters cover the windows in the living room, master bedroom and the second bedroom. The out building measures 25 by 30 and has a concrete floor and two 12 foot doors as well as a work bench. The irrigation system uses well water but the home is hooked up to county water. The home is situated in a highly rated school district which includes Ashton Elementary and Sarasota Middle. And another plus is no deed restrictions, no association fees and no CDD's!
