One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. LET'S MAKE A DEAL! Positioned as one of the best buys in The Landings, with arguably the best location and amenities the community offers, this beautifully maintained second-floor coach home delivers standout value. A brand new roof, gutters, AC, exterior paint, resurfaced roads, and a brand new community pool set the stage in The Landings, one of Sarasota's most established guard-gated communities. Tucked at the end of a private cul-de-sac just one block from the pool and community amenities, the setting offers privacy and convenience in equal measure, with the big-ticket items already handled. A private entry framed by distinctive tile steps opens to a light-filled interior where soaring vaulted ceilings give the space an immediate sense of openness.

Just off the living area, an enclosed lanai lined with expansive sliding glass doors looks out over peaceful treetops, a quiet spot equally suited to morning coffee or winding down in the evening. At the heart of the home, the kitchen balances function and warmth with white cabinetry, granite countertops, custom tile backsplash detailing, and a sunlit eat-in area. A breakfast bar opens to the living and dining rooms for effortless entertaining, while a built-in dry bar adds character, extra storage, and a natural spot to serve guests. The primary suite carries the same vaulted ceilings and includes a flexible alcove that works beautifully as a sitting area or home office, along with a dedicated dressing space, built-in storage, and an oversized walk-in closet. Its en-suite bath offers a walk-in shower with bench seating, generous counter space, and timeless finishes. Two additional bedrooms and a guest bath round out the layout, leaving room for visitors, hobbies, or a work-from-home setup. Life here is g
