Most buyers walk into a home wondering what they'll have to replace. Here, you'll spend more time deciding where to put your furniture than planning your next renovation. Welcome to a beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath pool home where the expensive improvements have already been completed. From the newer roof, interior and exterior paint, insulated PEX plumbing with Armor Flex, updated shut-off valves, exterior hose bibbs, and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, this home delivers the confidence buyers are looking for before they even unpack. Step inside and you'll immediately notice the feeling of space. Two generous living areas flow effortlessly into an updated kitchen featuring granite countertops, modern cabinetry, a large pantry, and abundant storage. Each of the three oversized bedrooms includes its own walk-in closet, while the private owner's suite opens directly to the pool, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. A convenient guest bath also provides direct pool access. The backyard is where this home truly separates itself. Centered around an impressive 34' x 16' private swimming pool with a rare 8.5-foot-deep end—a feature no longer permitted under today's Florida building standards—this outdoor retreat is surrounded by an expansive concrete deck and beautifully landscaped grounds. Covered porches, a newer vinyl privacy fence, and pool views from nearly every main living area create an atmosphere that's equally suited for quiet mornings or entertaining family and friends. An oversized two-car garage with attic storage and a driveway accommodating up to six vehicles provide flexibility that's increasingly difficult to find. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in historic Whitfield Estates, this home offers a voluntary HOA of just $30 per year, access to Sarasota Bay Country Club culinary membership eligibility, and is only minutes from Sarasota Bay, downtown Sarasota, SRQ Airport, UTC, and the beaches of Siesta Key, Lido Key, Longboat Key, and Anna Maria Island. Even better, this property has proven itself as a successful Superhost short-term vacation rental, offering exceptional flexibility whether you're searching for a primary residence, seasonal getaway, or income-producing investment. Solid block construction, hurricane insurance discounts, underground utilities, and a nearby neighborhood park complete a home that offers comfort, confidence, and lasting value.

Tucked into a quiet corner of Sarasota's 34231, 2220 Doud St shows that solid construction and smart updates can go hand in hand with laid-back Florida living. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers 1,625 square feet and has been carefully upgraded from top to bottom—giving buyers real peace of mind in a market where that counts. Take a look at the track record: hurricane-rated windows installed in 2026, a roof from 2020, an HVAC and electrical panel updated in 2019, and a septic system replaced in 2013. The pool has its own good story—resurfaced in 2020 and now heated by 2025 solar panels, so you can enjoy warm swims without the pricey energy bills. Inside, fresh paint brightens every room, and the extended two-car garage gives you plenty of room for cars, gear, and weekend projects. The layout works too. A split floor plan keeps the primary suite private, complete with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath featuring dual vanities and a walk-in shower. The open living-dining combo flows into a galley kitchen and a family room anchored by a tiled, wood-burning fireplace. Out by the pool, a half bath adds convenience, and a cute "she-shed" plus an extra storage shed round things out. Dark-grained engineered hardwood runs throughout for a clean, cohesive look. Now for the fun part—the neighborhood. This pocket of Sarasota puts everyday life right at your fingertips. Sprouts Farmers Market sits less than a mile away for quick, healthy grocery runs, and Publix at Sarasota Pavilion is just up the road when you need more. Head a few minutes north and you'll land in Gulf Gate Estates, one of the area's most beloved spots for dining and hanging out. It's packed with cozy cafés, local pubs, international eateries, and boutique shops—a walkable, welcoming stretch where neighbors linger over coffee and catch live music on the weekends. Whether you're craving sushi, pizza, or a craft beer with friends, it's all close by. Families will love being near Riverview High School, and outdoorsy folks have easy access to nearby parks, bike paths, and green spaces perfect for morning walks or afternoon play. And of course, the big draw waits just three-and-a-half miles west: world-famous Siesta Beach, with its powdery quartz sand and clear turquoise water. Spontaneous beach days become part of the routine here. The vibe in this community is friendly and unhurried—the kind of place where you can enjoy both quiet evenings at home and lively nights out. Whether you're after a full-time retreat or a smart Sarasota investment, 2220 Doud St delivers lasting value in a location that's hard to beat. Come see it for yourself—schedule your private tour today.
