What a charming, retro place to call home just minutes by bike or car from the #1 beach in the USA on Siesta Key! This charming 2/2 was converted from a 3/2 to make an oversized second bedroom. The owner will convert it back if that is important. The unspoiled terrazzo floors and the period tile will take you back! There is a huge screened Florida room for enjoying the comfort of evening breezes. And, there is plenty of room to romp in the yard! The home is in perfect keeping with the neighborhood. South Gate, in the mid '50's was an orange grove being worked by Minute Maid. Some of the original trees are still producing in the neighborhood. There is a beautiful South Gate Community Center designed by architect Victor Lundy, and swimming pool. The active community association is a great place to meet and mingle with neighbors. The proximity to South Gate (Westfield) Mall (home of Banana Republic, Saks, Macy's, etc.), the Post Office, Andrea's Restaurant, Kazu's Sushi, Southside Village (Morton's Market, Libby's, Fifi's Fine Consignment Shop), Siesta Key beach, downtown Sarasota and all of its cultural and dining opportunities, and the bay front, makes this a perfect retreat. There are blueprints available for remodeling if you so choose.
