3583 SECRET STROLL DRIVE

Virtually Staged. No neighbors behind you, just open grass and sunsets. This 2020-built 5-bed, 2-bath pool home has over $135,000 in owner upgrades and looks every bit of it. Inside, upgraded ceramic tile runs through every room, not a square foot of carpet in the house. The great room, dining, and kitchen flow together under tray ceilings with Restoration Hardware fans and lighting throughout, and hand-picked pendants over the island. The kitchen does the heavy lifting: white shaker cabinets, stainless appliances with a double oven, and an island with seating that everyone will end up standing around anyway. Everything sits on a single level with no stairs anywhere. The primary suite is tucked privately at the back with a walk-in closet, dual granite vanities, and an oversized frameless walk-in shower with a pebble floor. An oversized guest room near the entry gives visitors their own corner. A fifth bedroom off the kitchen handles the home office, the nursery, or the in-laws who keep saying they are only staying a week. Out back is the reason you will stop looking. A heated pool with water jets, a travertine deck, and a raised stone wall, under a screened cage, with a covered lanai running nearly 39 feet with a ceiling fan and string lights. The multi-color pool lights turn the whole yard into something else after dark, and a floating pool alarm sounds loudly at any movement in the water. And behind you, nothing. Just open community green space, a playground, and room to run. Hurricane shutters, interior laundry, an epoxy-coated garage floor, and a two-car garage round it out. HOA is $150 a month with no CDD, and it sits in Flood Zone X, so no required flood insurance. Minutes to I-75, University Town Center, and downtown Sarasota.
