Don’t miss this unique opportunity to own an "outstanding" 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence located within the gates of Laurel Oak. This home is ideally positioned on a ½ acre plus premium lake lot with exceptional "natural" privacy, serene water and preserve views from your picture framed lanai. Every home has a story, and this one began in 2020 when it was taken down to the studs and thoughtfully reimagined through a custom renovation—blending timeless design with modern functionality, and delivering a move-in ready experience with lasting peace of mind. The architectural details include crown molding, tray and volume ceilings that highlight the sense of openness and elegance throughout the living spaces. The kitchen has been meticulously designed with expansive counter space and custom cabinetry, creating a natural balance between everyday comfort and functionality. It’s a space that supports daily living with ease while also accommodating those moments that call for gathering and celebration, it is open, practical, and tailored to the flow of everyday life. The transition from the interior living spaces to the exterior spaces creates a true indoor-outdoor lifestyle: inviting, open, and designed for everyday living. Multiple access points from room to room including the Primary & Secondary en-suites extend the living space outward, connecting naturally to the expansive under-cover lanai and pool area showcasing postcard-worthy views with peaceful sightlines. It’s a layout that offers flexibility. Schedule your private showing today to experience this rare Laurel Oak Estates property. Residents have the option to join Laurel Oak Country Club, offering two 18-hole championship golf courses, 12 Har-Tru tennis courts, six pickleball courts, and an active social calendar. Ownership includes moving to the top of the waitlist and (next spot) priority placement on the country club waiting list. Beyond the gates, the location places you near shopping, dining, entertainment, medical facilities, major roadways, and Sarasota’s renowned beaches.
Laurel Oak Estates, located between Bee Ridge Road and Clark Road, is a residential and suburban Lake Sarasota neighborhood with mature oak canopy and winding cul-de-sacs. The streets read as mid-century Florida ranch homes and newer rebuilds, with broad lawns and screened lanais shaping a quiet, lived-in streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Bee Ridge Rd & McIntosh Rd intersection, where everyday errands cluster beside steady commuter traffic. Detwiler’s Farm Market anchors the local food scene with produce aisles and a busy deli counter. Nearby, Sarasota Art Museum and Marie Selby Botanical Gardens add a cultural counterpoint to the inland setting. A short drive west, Siesta Key Beach and the Legacy Trail frame weekends around sand and long, flat rides.
