This corner villa welcomes you with an abundance of natural light flowing through sliding doors into the high ceilings of the open living and dining areas, all with no neighbors above you. The living room offers peek-a-boo lake views across the private screened patio. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, shaker cabinets, and stainless steel appliances, and leads directly to the screened patio, perfect for outdoor dining. The spacious primary suite is freshly painted and includes its own private patio and a full ensuite bathroom with a brand-new dual vanity. The guest bedroom, located away from the primary suite for added privacy, is adjacent to the full guest bathroom and offers ample space for visitors or a home office. An indoor laundry room enhances the villa’s convenience for both seasonal and year-round living, while a gated front-entry patio provides another charming outdoor area to enjoy the Florida sunshine. The villa includes a designated covered parking spot just steps from your front door, along with a storage closet for beach gear and golf clubs, and the association has recently replaced the roofs, offering added peace of mind. Meadowlake offers two beautiful community pools within walking distance, as well as access to The Meadows community fitness center, pickleball courts, clubhouse pool, dog park, playground, basketball courts, and community-sponsored events at the activity center, with optional memberships at The Meadows Country Club providing opportunities for golf and tennis. The Meadows is a serene, nature-filled community with beautiful walking trails nestled among canopied oaks, offering the perfect blend of quiet living with easy access to the vibrant UTC shopping and dining district, the new Mote Marine SEA Aquarium, Downtown Sarasota, and pristine Gulf beaches.
