Property Description
***A Stunning Revival***1858 Oak Street, a historic Spanish-Mediterranean home in the heart of Laurel Park, is a testament to the charming blend of history and modern living. This 3-bedroom, 3-bath home, with an office and over 2,000 square feet of living space, exudes timeless appeal. The moment you step inside, you're greeted by a vaulted pecky cypress ceiling that immediately captures your attention. Below, heart-of-pine wood floors gleam under soft lighting, while a meticulously restored wood-burning fireplace anchors the space. Each unique detail tells a story, connecting the home to Laurel Park's vibrant history. Modern updates enhance both comfort and security. Hurricane-proof windows frame picturesque views while standing up to nature's toughest tests. Behind the walls, new electrical, plumbing, and A/C systems ensure reliability and peace of mind. The sunny office, located just off the kitchen, offers a tranquil retreat with views of the backyard as sunlight streams through a glass door. Through sliding glass doors, the backyard reveals towering trees, palms, and mature landscaping, providing shade and privacy. The centerpiece of this idyllic retreat is a one-of-a-kind lagoon. Imagine yourself floating in this tranquil oasis where waters shimmer in the sunlight. This lagoon is more than a picturesque feature; it's an experience. Ideal for cooling off on warm days or enjoying a peaceful moment surrounded by lush greenery, the lagoon is a seamless blend of relaxation and recreation. Subtle landscape lighting transforms the backyard into an enchanting space, perfect for serene evenings or lively gatherings. The ambiance is nothing short of magical. Once an overlooked treasure, this home has been lovingly restored, seamlessly combining historic charm with modern enhancements. It tells a story of renewal and grace—a cherished gem in this celebrated neighborhood. The home is complemented by its prime location within steps to downtown Sarasota, the bayfront, local arts venues, eclectic eateries, and charming boutiques.
