About This Property

Welcome to 361 Scott Avenue, a beautifully refreshed pool home in the heart of Whitfield Estates, west of the Tamiami Trail. Set on a rare double lot just minutes from Sarasota Bay, the property offers the kind of laid-back Florida living that's getting harder to find at this price. You'll step into a bright, open great room that flows right into the kitchen, where Corian counters, a center island, built-in oven, and separate cooktop make hosting easy. Original terrazzo and ceramic tile run through much of the home, paired with crown molding, textured ceilings, and fresh interior paint that warms up the mid-century bones. The primary suite has been reworked as a true retreat, with a custom-fitted walk-in closet and a fully updated granite bath. Two more bedrooms, a separate laundry, and a tucked-away dining room round out a layout that lives easy on one level. Hurricane impact windows fill the home with light while keeping things quiet inside. Out back is where this house really shines. A covered lanai opens to an 18x36 private pool, all wrapped by a fully fenced and irrigated yard with plenty of room to entertain or expand. The double lot offers privacy and flexibility you almost never see this close to the Bay. Concrete block build, recent improvements include roof (2017), HVAC (2017), and variable-speed pool pump (2017). Flood Zone X means flood insurance isn't currently required. The OPTIONAL Whitfield Estates HOA runs just $35 a year, and residents can apply for culinary membership at the historic Sara Bay Country Club. You're a quick drive to The Ringling, Asolo Repertory Theatre, New College, Ringling College of Art and Design, IMG Academy, SRQ International Airport, UTC, and downtown Sarasota. St. Armands Circle, Lido Key, and the Gulf beaches are all close at hand. A rare chance to own a true classic in one of Sarasota's most established west-of-Trail neighborhoods
