2505 CROTON AVENUE SARASOTA FL 34239 MLS #A4659395

One-of-a-kind mid-century modern pool home on an expansive, oversized lot with lush tropical landscaping and a fully fenced-in backyard, located in Sarasota’s sought-after South Gate neighborhood. Known for its charm, character, and unbeatable location close to downtown, the beaches, Southside Village, and shopping, South Gate continues to be one of Sarasota’s most beloved communities. Originally the model home, it still showcases signature mid-century details such as curved walls, a sunken living room, terrazzo and Brazilian cherry floors, vintage light fixtures, and built-ins throughout. The home lives as a spacious two-bedroom, two-bath residence with an open floor plan, expanded family room, custom-designed kitchen with stainless appliances and breakfast nook, large walk-in closets, and updated bathrooms. A separate third bedroom suite is located just off the garage with its own private entrance, bathroom, and access to a peaceful back garden with deck and covered gazebo, making it ideal for guests, a home office, or in-law setup. The oversized saltwater pool ( with a new pool heater) has been resurfaced and is enclosed in a large screened lanai with plenty of space for entertaining. Additional features include a newer roof, hurricane-rated windows and sliders, solar panels for energy savings, updated electrical with buried power lines, as well as hurricane-rated garage doors. Located outside the flood zone and unaffected by recent storms. Both 4-Point and Wind Mitigation inspections have already been completed for added confidence. Residents may also join the South Gate Community Center for social events and neighborhood gatherings. Call today for a private showing of this truly special home.
