Welcome to this beautifully updated two-bedroom, two-bath home with a den in the Cascades, an active 55+ gated community in Sarasota, Florida. This property shows a true pride in ownership, and has been meticulously updated for efficiency, durability, and a refined living experience. The home's exterior features a new tile roof (2025), fresh coat of exterior paint (2024), and energy-efficient windows (2017). For storm protection, the home features hurricane/impact sliding glass doors (2024), a deco impact-resistant front door, accordion hurricane shutters on all openings, and a surge protection system for the entire home. The extended and updated lanai is a beautiful outdoor living area, enclosed with acrylic windows and has ample space to keep your golf cart as well. The two-car garage features polyaspartic flooring, built in cabinets and work area, along with two mechanical overhead storage racks. The kitchen and both bathrooms were remodeled in 2020, and were thoughtfully updated with quartz countertops, touchless faucets, and pull-outs in all kitchen and bath lower cabinets. The kitchen features white 42" cabinets, extended counters, under-cabinet lighting, under sink water filter system, and a hot water recirculating timer. The community's clubhouse was completely redone in 2019, and offers a large ballroom, a fitness center, and dedicated rooms for billiards, cards, arts and crafts, a library, and a conference room. Residents can also enjoy a large community pool and spa, with an indoor section for the winter, six Har-Tru tennis courts with a pro shop, two pickleball courts, and horseshoe pits. There are many more updates and features this home and community both have to offer, and we invite you to come and see them in person.
