About this home
You will love this serene light-filled home, surrounded by gorgeous gardens and nestled into South Gate, one of Sarasota's sought-after neighborhoods. Designed by Ruth Richmond, this comfortable home is filled with natural light. (Original 1957 drawings and survey are available for your review.) The large cobblestone circle driveway is laid with bricks from a historic Chicago building. As you enter the front door, a great room spans 46 feet from left to right, and includes the dining room, living room and Florida room. There are three bedrooms, two with exterior doors and outdoor porches. The kitchen is 19.5 by 11 feet with generous eat-in dining area and door that opens to an outdoor dining terrace. The walk-in pantry doubles as laundry room with washer, dryer and its own door to the outside. A short stroll into the gardens you'll find an extra bedroom, office or studio, called the garden nest bungalow, with its own deck, air conditioner and outdoor shower nearby. You'll find magical rooms carved into the backyard landscape that really must be seen, plus a dramatic gazebo lounge and dining deck. This home is made of concrete block, with metal roof and maple wood floors. Upgrades include air-conditioning (2024), electric (2025), main kitchen drain line (2022) irrigation system (2025) and waterproof laminate bath floors (2022). Garden nest bungalow built (2020). The workshop is 9.5 by 9.5 feet and includes an additional 13.5 by 4 feet of outdoor storage shelving behind sliding doors. Carport is 13.5 by 18.5 feet. Most furnishings are available for sale with the home at a nominal price, please ask for list. South Gate has a great vibe. The neighborhood association's annual membership is not mandatory, but entitles you to vote, use of community pool and the Sarasota School of Architecture community center designed by Victor Lundy FAIA for parties and events. Close to beaches, downtown Sarasota, the bayfront, Sarasota Art Museum, restaurants, music, shopping and outdoor events. Public schools are well-regarded. This garden estate includes a historic grandfather oak tree canopy. Go into the lush tropical gardens, a living fortress of privacy and beauty shaped by more than $95,000 of landscape design and you will fall in love. Mid-century modern lovers take note, the original terrazzo flooring can be seen (peekaboo!) at entry doorways.
