Welcome to this charming Old Florida Cottage set in a wooded landscape at the very end of a quiet Osprey avenue. The entire home was remodeled inside and out less than seven years ago. The ceilings were vaulted, giving a wonderful sense of space, natural bamboo flooring added and so many windows (impact, of course) that wrap you in a breezy leafy embrace. The electrical panel has been upgraded and the home is cooled with ease with two mini-split air conditioning units. The kitchen is laid out for a chef to create and for the chefs' friends to enjoy! With its open plan layout the living area feels spacious. The bedroom has plenty of room for a bedroom suite as well as an office or reading area, and the remodeled bathroom has a comfortably large walk-in shower. The bonus of the screened lanai continues to give the feeling of being in nature even though you're so close to busy Sarasota. The worry-free Hardie-plank siding is new to the home as well as the long-lasting metal roof. The property was connected to trouble-free county water, and the septic system was completely replaced, but the well and pump were retained for low-cost irrigation. If you like to garden, there is plenty of room to do just that on this 1/4-acre lot, and it is adjacent to a broad greenbelt preserve and the established community of The Oaks beyond. There is no HOA and plenty of room for all your toys! Just a short walk to the Selby Botanical Garden at Spanish Point, under 3 miles to Casey Key, 6 to Siesta Key and 9 to Venice. Conveniently located with a variety of great restaurants and shops to choose from. If you have ever dreamed of living in a charming Florida Cottage, 473 Glenwood Avenue is the home for you!
