Welcome to Magnolia Pond, where peaceful water views of gently swimming ducks create a serene setting that makes you forget you’re in the heart of Sarasota. This beautifully maintained, rare 4-bedroom home offers an opportunity seldom available in central Sarasota and is nestled within a family-friendly community known for its exceptionally low HOA fees and great schools. As you enter the home, you’re welcomed by a large, open and versatile space that can be used as either a dining area or a living room, depending on your needs.

The backyard overlooks a tranquil pond, providing a peaceful backdrop visible from both indoor and outdoor living areas. A standout feature is the screened porch, which captures the pond view and is accessible from three separate areas of the home—the kitchen, dining room, and primary bedroom—creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living. Inside, natural light fills the home through large windows, highlighting the well-maintained landscaping and water views beyond. The primary suite offers privacy and direct access to the screened porch, making it easy to enjoy quiet mornings or unwind at the end of the day. Magnolia Pond is a deed-restricted community with no CDD fees and low association costs. The location is exceptional—minutes to shopping, dining, parks, I-75, and the Legacy Trail, one of Sarasota’s most popular outdoor recreation destinations.
