Beautifully updated and move-in ready, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom split floor plan home offers over 1,800 sq. ft. of comfortable living with soaring vaulted ceilings-perfectly positioned within Hidden River, Sarasotas premier aviation community. Located in a privately gated, non-deed-restricted, no-HOA community, residents also have the optional opportunity to join the Hidden River Aviation Association for just 950 annually. A 1% lender credit at closing is available, adding exceptional value for buyers. The home is being refreshed prior to sale with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, a fully updated kitchen, updated bathrooms, fresh interior paint throughout, and newly painted doors, trim, and hardware. All appliances-including the washer and dryer-convey with the home for seamless move-in convenience. Major systems have been well cared for: a newer roof and well (approx. 2 years old), copper plumbing, an HVAC system installed about 34 years ago, a 200-amp electrical panel with surge protection, and a septic system professionally serviced on a 5-year schedule. Near the foyer, a small flex room provides bonus versatility-ideal for a compact office, hobby nook, or even a potential 5th sleeping space if needed. Outdoor living shines here with a brand-new screened lanai, upgraded flood lighting, and a full-view camera security system. High-speed fiber-optic internet is available onsite, making remote work and streaming effortless. The property is a true Florida homestead, boasting a remarkable variety of mature fruit trees and edible plantings-mango, mulberry, loquat, avocado, multiple banana varieties, carambola, papaya, pineapple, moringa, persimmon, peaches, muscadine grapes, lychee, monstera, sugarcane, cassava, ginger, turmeric, herbs, and more. Hidden River is one of the most unique communities in Florida-an Old-Florida escape just 12 miles east of I-75, surrounded by natural beauty and bordered by the Myakka River State Park. With 5 acre estate properties, privacy, freedom, and space to spread out are key attributes of the neighborhood. Aviators will appreciate that Hidden Rivers private 3.5-mile road network also serves as platted taxiways leading directly to a 2,640-foot paved, lighted runway. Airplanes have the right of way, so its not uncommon to share the road with neighbors taxiing to and from their homes-an incredible lifestyle amenity for pilots. Outdoor and nature enthusiasts will love the 12-acre preserved hammock recreation area, which leads down to a private boat launch on the Wild & Scenic Myakka River. Its a peaceful, wildlife-rich setting where sunsets glow through untouched trees and adventure is always close by. This is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously updated home with modern comforts, unmatched aviation amenities, and the breathtaking natural setting that makes Hidden River so special-perfect for pilots, hobbyists, and anyone seeking an expansive, peaceful Florida lifestyle.
