ONE OF A KIND ROUND HOUSE. This home started out as a 23 foot circle with kitchen, living, bath, bedroom all under an exposed beam ceiling with terrazzo floors and more charm then actual living space. The original owners worked for Ringling and used this home as a winter residence, lots of history here. Through the years a large addition was added creating a kitchen, huge living area, guest bedroom and garage. The original house became a master suite and acquired a metal roof over. The current owner field fenced the back yard and started a major renovation which has come to a halt. This idyllic, circa 1952 cottage, needs a new owner with vision, tools and a checkbook. The reward will be tons of sweat equity in a truly unique home situated on a 3/4 acre lot one mile from Manasota Beach with a colorful history to talk about. Better get AROUND to calling quick, this property is priced to sell.
