This Ashton Pointe residence is a true family home (5BR/4.5 B plus office) in highly popular school district (Ashton Elem, Sarasota Middle, and Riverview High). Enjoy relaxing on the lanai or cooling off in the sparkling pool (it’s one of only 8 pool homes in this community). This neighborhood location offers a light and bright southern exposure for lots of sun on the pool, as well as lanai water views across the pond. The kitchen/great room floor plan continues to be the popular choice for busy families. There’s a wonderful gather-round-the-chef eat-in kitchen with lots of counter space, a breakfast bar and a walk-in pantry. For more formal affairs the separate dining room offers plenty of room for holiday meals and creating special memories. There’s also an alfresco dining option on the lanai under the 10 x 16 covered area overlooking the pool and pond. Add to that a bonus room/second family room upstairs and separate office. This interior layout and design are excellent for active family lifestyles offering several gathering areas as well as private areas for each member of a large family. The convenient location and proximity to schools and Siesta Key beaches, makes this a most desirable address.
