Big price reduction!! ROMANTIC FIXER UPPER IN MAYAKKA VALLEY RANCHES! This almost 2900 square foot 2-story home has many big porches, allowing you to enjoy sunrise and sunset over one of the most beautiful subdivisions in the county. Downstairs, we find a big living room, with a wet bar, a natural stone fireplace, as well as two guest bedrooms and a guest bath. The second floor features a combination of kitchen, dining area, and family room. The huge (22’x25’) master bedroom boasts its own fireplace, and a very generous bathroom with jetted tub and separate shower. The pool area is great for entertaining with plenty of covered and open deck space, a whirlpool, and a pool that is about 43 foot long. Behind the pool area is a big pond. There is plenty of pasture in case you want to keep horses or cattle (or any other critters; anything goes, as long as you keep it on your property). Myakka Valley Ranches is a great 280+ family community with many miles of saddle trails. It is really easy to make new friends in this subdivision which has an active saddle club, a book club, and a women’s forum. Myakka River State Park, Florida's biggest state park, borders the subdivision. There are good schools, shops, and restaurants in the area. Downtown, and the white beaches of Siesta Key are only 30 minutes away. The property needs a lot of work, is priced accordingly, and is sold "as is. "
