Property Description
A Cherokee Park original, lovingly preserved and newly reimagined. Sited between broad, canopied North Drive and quaint Harmony Lane is this striking Art Deco property dating to 1937. The recently completed interior and exterior renovations touched nearly every surface and yielded a masterful study in contrasts. Strong angular elevations are softened by fresh, verdant landscapes. Stark white exteriors give way to warm and inviting spaces within. Stately grand oaks tower above lawns carpeted in new, eco-friendly turf. The home welcomes guests with off-street covered parking and an idyllic front porch. Step inside the front doors to find a gracious fireside dining room with space for any holiday gathering. Original plaster moldings adorn the ceilings, and new Italian porcelain tiles grace the floors. The eat-in kitchen features a large center island, appliances by Sub-Zero and Wolf, quartz countertops, and a generous walk-in pantry, while the adjacent butler’s pantry and bar are perfectly situated for entertaining guests or preparing morning coffee. Windows lining the light-filled family room draw your gaze to the home’s park-like surroundings. The primary bedroom is conveniently located off the family room with direct access to the spa outside, featuring two custom closets and a bright and invigorating bath with separate vanities, freestanding tub, and spacious shower. A private home office or playroom can be closed off from the rest of the main floor, and the main laundry room sits centrally at the foot of the stairs. On the second level are three sizable bedrooms and three new bathrooms, complemented by refinished original wood floors and walk-in custom closets. Every inch of the home has been put to smart use, including a pocket office tucked under the stairs, a mud room bench and charging station welcoming owners in from the detached garage, and a wealth of storage unsual for a home of this era. Stepping outside, it is evident how much thought went into the site design. The approachable scale of the buildings and the open expanses left unbuilt on the lot are exceedingly uncommon luxuries today. Twin rear lawns dappled with sunlight are perfectly framed by the architecture of the surrounding structures. A new rectilinear saltwater pool and spa is encircled by vibrant green turf. Lush plantings, mature trees, and cedar fencing lend privacy, while landscape lighting dials up drama at night. The lawns are visually and physically connected by a covered entertaining area, including summer kitchen, which also permits dry passage from the detached garage. Within the three-car garage conveniently accessed from Harmony Lane, one bay has been converted to conditioned space, with a pool bath, home gym, and mudroom complete with sink and laundry machines ideal for beach towels, gym clothes, or kids’ soccer uniforms. Throughout the property, newer mechanicals, impact glass, and a generator, along with unseen updates to the roof and gutters, wiring, and chimney, provide peace of mind. The owner spared no expense in completing the renovations with architecture by CMSA and construction by Jonas Yoder; plans to build additional guest space above the garage have already been prepared and are available to the next owner. Few historic homes with character and charm remain in Sarasota. Fewer still have been so well preserved and tastefully modernized. To find both in a Cherokee Park residence, one of Sarasota’s finest neighborhoods, is rare indeed.
