Tucked within the highly sought-after Burns Court Villas in the heart of downtown Sarasota, this exquisite and inviting rarely available two-story townhouse lives with the comfort and privacy of a single-family home yet offers all the conveniences of vibrant downtown Sarasota living just outside your door. With nearly 2,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed space, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 3 private balconies plus the largest private courtyard in the community, this residence beautifully balances elegance, comfort, and everyday livability. Step through the solid mahogany front door into light-filled interiors anchored by polished travertine floors, high ceilings, and soft natural light filtering through impact-rated windows and doors. The open living spaces flow gracefully, from the welcoming formal living room with gas fireplace, to the elegant dining room, and on to the fantastic family room just off the kitchen—a peaceful retreat overlooking the lush, private courtyard where birds sing and green Climbing Fig adorns the walls creating a rare, serene extension of the living space for morning coffee, quiet reading, or intimate outdoor entertaining. The kitchen remodel, completed in 2023, reflects impeccable craftsmanship and refined taste. Custom wood cabinetry with soft-close drawers and pull-out storage is paired with quartz countertops, a new Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking six-burner gas range with electric oven, Viking convection microwave, and Miele dishwasher. Every detail was designed for both beauty and performance, while upgraded LED lighting throughout the home enhances its brightness and energy efficiency. Upstairs, Brazilian cherry engineered hardwood floors add warmth and continuity to the second level. The serene primary suite offers a restful ambiance, with a private balcony access, custom walk-in closet and a fully renovated primary bath—a spa-like retreat of glass, quartz, and intricate custom tilework with cohesive tile patterns and fine finishes. The space features a walk-in shower with bench seating, stainless fixtures, and a designated vanity illuminated by natural light. The 2 generous guest suites are calming private retreats and share a reimagined full bath that mirrors the sophisticated aesthetic of the primary- newly renovated with the finest of materials and finishes. Everyday practicality is elevated by the convenient second-story laundry room with Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer, storage cabinetry, and ample additional closet space. The home also features 2-zone A/C, a water heater less than a year old, GFI EV charging outlet, and assigned parking. Residents of Burns Court Villas enjoy a beautifully landscaped central courtyard with pool, relaxing spa, and fire pit—a true urban oasis. Peace of mind is paramount with enhanced perimeter security including fob-access gates & secure parking. Blending the warmth of a home with the ease of downtown living, this residence offers a lifestyle that’s both tranquil and connected. Walk or ride to Sarasota’s acclaimed dining, theaters, galleries, and the bayfront, then return home to your own private sanctuary—where modern comfort, timeless design, and a sense of calm meet in perfect harmony.
