Better than brand new and only 2 years old, this energy-efficient San Marino floor plan by Meritage Homes is available now in the heart of Nokomis, located within a gated community for added privacy and peace of mind. What truly sets this home apart, and is rarely found in today’s market, is the combination of 5 true bedrooms, a spacious loft, and a dedicated flex room / home office, a layout that offers a level of space and flexibility most homes simply cannot match. Offering 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a 2-car garage, this thoughtfully designed home features an open-concept layout with a highly desirable first-floor primary suite. As you enter, you’re welcomed by a versatile flex space and private office, leading into a beautifully appointed kitchen with 42-inch upper cabinets, quartz countertops, an under-mount sink, stainless steel appliances, and a corner pantry with custom wood shelving. The main living areas showcase modern tile flooring, while the primary suite offers plush carpeting, dual vanities, a spacious walk-in shower with seamless glass, and a large walk-in closet. Sliding glass doors open to a covered lanai overlooking a stunning water view with a preserve behind it, creating a private and peaceful setting. Upstairs, the rare layout continues with a large loft ideal for entertaining or additional living space, along with four spacious bedrooms, all with walk-in closets, and two full bathrooms. Additional highlights include a large main-level laundry room, ample storage throughout, all appliances included, and full hurricane impact windows and doors for added peace of mind. Even better, this home is NOT located in a flood zone, meaning most lenders will not require flood insurance, a huge long-term savings. Current homeowner’s insurance is approximately $2,200 per year, which is extremely attractive for a home of this size and age. With an incredibly low HOA of just $150 per year, this home also offers convenient access to I-75 and is just minutes from shopping, dining, and the vibrant downtown areas of Sarasota and Venice. It is also ideally located near some of the area’s top-rated schools including Laurel Nokomis School, Venice High School, and the highly sought-after Gifted Pine View School. Residents of Magnolia Bay enjoy resort-style amenities including a clubhouse, pool, fitness center, pickleball courts, and more. This is your opportunity to own a like-new home with a floor plan and value that are truly hard to find.
