4845 Village Gardens DRIVE #177

Lovely 2/2 villa/condominium, approximately 1300 sq. ft., situated in a lush tropical Florida setting, just 6 minutes from downtown Sarasota. This peaceful and private one-story end-unit is a maintenance-free condominium that's had some wonderful upgrades and remodeling. It features a fabulous great room with new flooring, 12 ft vaulted ceiling, lots of glass for peaceful views, plus sliding doors to a newer Paver patio that spans the rear of the home. The 17x13 eat-in kitchen and dinette come with a pantry, new cabinets, new quartz countertops, newer stainless appliances. The roof was replaced in 2015 (roof replacements are covered by the association), and a new Trane A/C was installed in 2017. The main bedroom comes with an en-suite and a large walk-in closet. There is ample storage with an attic and an attached exterior shed on the side of the home. There is also a newer concrete driveway. Amenities include a clubhouse, full kitchen, library, and manager's office; heated pool and a ramada with 2 gas grills & picnic tables; a tennis court that doubles as a pickleball court; and 2 shuffleboard courts; a drive-through recycling area; and a complimentary car wash area. Village Gardens is a pet-friendly community, allowing a maximum of 2 pets weighing up to 40 lbs each. Room sizes are approximate. This is a very private retreat surrounded by nature, yet is just minutes to the commerce and culture of Sarasota.
