About this home
Hidden behind lush, curated gardens on a rare .34-acre parcel in McClellan Park, west of Osprey, this is more than a home—it’s a private in-town compound designed for those who value beauty, privacy, and a deeply connected lifestyle. A winding approach reveals a residence that unfolds with intention, where indoor and outdoor living exist in perfect harmony. At its heart, a 2024 architectural addition creates a breathtaking great room, where walls of glass disappear and the home opens entirely to a serene poolside setting—blurring the line between interior elegance and natural surroundings. The kitchen, dining, and living spaces flow effortlessly together, framed by garden views and natural light, creating an atmosphere that is both refined and grounding.
This charming in-city home combines historic character with modern living. The property underwent a complete back-to-studs renovation, bringing it fully up to current Florida building codes with an official build date of 2013. You’ll enjoy the best of both worlds: a classic foundation refined by modern systems and standards.
The main home spans 3,239 square feet with three bedrooms and three baths, fully customized with all the details valued by today’s buyers. Bonus rooms include an office/den, plus a sitting room in the primary suite. The striking 2024 addition, designed by Jimmy Thornton, features an open-concept great room, dining and kitchen with zero-corner, fully pocketing sliding glass doors, a dramatic architectural detail that opens the living space completely to the pool and outdoor areas.
The kitchen is a true showpiece. It features high ceiling, super-organized European cabinetry with illuminated interiors, high-profile quartz and marble countertops, a glass window backsplash, and clerestory windows. Custom walnut open shelving add artistic flair. Appliance garages, interior drawers, workstation sink with two faucets, and oversize eat-in island add high-end functionality.
The outdoors is incredibly lush and functional for an in-town location. Outdoor living rooms, fruit trees, trellises, native flowers, and an expansive food garden…plus a tree house for charm and fun. A heated saltwater pool anchors the backyard, while the detached guest house adds flexibility for recreation, home office, studio or guests.
Energy independence is a standout advantage with a roof solar system, two-car solar carport, and backup batteries. It’s a home that powers itself confidently and efficiently.
Location is a major benefit here, and one you’ll appreciate every day. From this quiet McClellan Park street, you can walk to Southside School (or the Pine View bus stop), reach Southside Village in 0.5 mile, and be at Sarasota Memorial Hospital in 1.0 mile. Everyday convenience continues just beyond the neighborhood with shopping centers, restaurants, Downtown Sarasota and Gulf beaches all within five miles. And for buyers who love being on the water, you can roll your kayaks to the bay. There’s a convenient put-in at the end of the street.
McClellan park homes like this one are few and far between. Quiet street, large lot, guest house and a full renovation already done. If you want Sarasota West of Trail without compromise, this is your moment....
