Enjoy the charm of Marbella, a gated community in the northwest corner of Palmer Ranch. Situated on one of the community's largest private lots, this three-bedroom, two-bath home with a separate den offers just under 2,000 square feet and a spacious layout that feels even larger. A beautifully landscaped tropical island adds inviting curb appeal, while a custom front door with leaded-glass sidelights welcomes you inside. From the wide foyer, your eyes are immediately drawn to the secluded backyard and pool. Set on a .23-acre lot, the west-facing pool offers a private retreat with neither neighboring home visible from the pool. The primary bedroom overlooks this peaceful setting, framed by lush vegetation. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a 22-by-13-foot covered area for dining and relaxing beneath a screened pool enclosure measuring 35 by 22 feet. Numerous updates include a new barrel tile roof in 2024, air conditioner in 2022, and water heater with an expansion tank in 2023. The home has been repiped, the exterior was recently repainted, and the interior was freshly painted in 2026. Additional improvements include a replacement garage door and LiftMaster opener in 2021, a rebuilt irrigation system with new heads in 2022, a pool pump in 2019, washer and dryer in 2020, and all kitchen appliances in 2021-2022. A slightly oversized garage provides added convenience. With low HOA fees of $1,500 annually, this home is an appealing choice for a seasonal retreat or year-round residence. Ideally situated minutes from Siesta Key beaches, Palmer Ranch shopping and restaurants, downtown Sarasota, and Marina Jack.
