Property Description
What truly sets this property apart is the flexibility and opportunity it offers. Currently operating as a Airbnb, this home is perfectly positioned for rental income, multi-generational living, or a home-based business. With no HOA restrictions and ample space, the possibilities here are wide open—something increasingly hard to find in central Sarasota.
The home offers approximately 2,200 square feet under air with a layout designed for both privacy and functionality. One of the bedrooms includes a private entrance, making it ideal for a guest suite, in-law quarters, or a separate rental space—adding even more income potential.
Inside, you'll find a bright, open living space with updated plank tile flooring, abundant natural light, and a well-appointed kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances, generous cabinetry, and views of the expansive backyard. The flexible floor plan flows seamlessly to multiple outdoor access points, enhancing both everyday living and guest experience.
Step outside and you'll immediately see why this property performs so well as a short-term rental. The outdoor space is designed for relaxation and entertainment, featuring a screened-in pool, spacious lanai, multiple covered lounging areas, and a tranquil koi pond. The fully fenced yard creates a private retreat, while additional detached structures provide space for storage, workshops, or creative use—ideal for owners, guests, or business needs.
Location is another major advantage. You're just minutes from downtown Sarasota, shopping, dining, and the world-famous Gulf beaches. This central location makes it highly attractive for both full-time living and short-term rental guests.
Additional highlights include a newer roof, high-and-dry positioning (not in a flood zone), ample parking, and full usability of the entire half-acre lot—something rarely available in this location.
Whether you're looking to expand your investment portfolio, run a home-based business, or secure a property that offers both lifestyle and income, 3200 Spainwood Drive delivers on all fronts.
