Nestled in one of Sarasota's most coveted equestrian communities, Foxfire West, this extraordinary 3+ acre Southern estate is a rare gem in this highly sought-after neighborhood, where homes seldom come on the market. As you make your way up the winding driveway, meandering oak trees frame the nearly 5,200 sq ft residence, setting a picturesque scene. Designed for both elegance and comfort, this home features 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a sparkling pool, and a two-stall horse barn--everything you need to embrace a true country lifestyle just minutes from the beaches. A charming front porch welcomes you inside, where warm wood flooring, crown molding, and thoughtful architectural details set the stage. The formal dining room boasts a beautiful bay window, while a dedicated office features custom built-ins and a gas fireplace. The living room is a showstopper, with soaring two-story ceilings, expansive windows, a second gas fireplace, and a dry bar that ties the space together seamlessly. For those who love to cook and entertain, the Southern-style kitchen is a dream come true. Wrapped in gorgeous cabinetry with paneled appliances and granite countertops, this space includes a large island, an eat-in dining nook, and plenty of storage. The first-floor owner's suite is a true retreat, tucked away for privacy with pocket doors leading to a spa-like ensuite bathroom. Enjoy a soaking garden tub, a walk-in shower, separate vanities, and an expansive custom closet with an island for added convenience. Upstairs, each bedroom has its own unique charm, while an oversized media room offers endless possibilities--whether you envision a home theater, playroom, or private gym. Step outside to a backyard oasis that checks all the boxes. The screened-in lanai is built for entertaining, complete with a newly refinished heated saltwater pool and spa, an outdoor kitchen, and a full pool bathroom with a stand-up shower. Beyond the lanai, the two-stall barn and workshop offer space for equestrian pursuits or hobbies, while a picturesque pergola adds to the serene setting. No expense has been spared in maintaining and updating this estate, with a brand-new roof replaced in July 2024, a completely replumbed interior, and a newer electric panel, ensuring peace of mind for years to come. Set on one of the most private lots in Foxfire West, this estate is the perfect blend of country living and modern convenience. Located just minutes from shopping, dining, and top-rated schools, and with Siesta Key Beach only 20 minutes away, you truly get the best of both worlds.
