355 MYAKKA ROAD

Leave the hustle and bustle behind and come home to your own "Little House in The Country" on 5 acres. Set in the shade of mature trees, this house features wood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, 3 bedrooms, a kitchen that's open to a nice informal eating area, and a multipurpose room that could be a dining room, music and hobby room, or homework/computer room. Sit on the back deck and watch your animals. A pole barn, goat shed, and nice workshop offer spaces for both animals (chickens are allowed) and projects. Cross-fenced horse or cattle pastures, a pond, and a concrete foundation for a large outbuilding or garage. Walk to the nearby 129-acre Old Miakka Preserve, where you'll find 4 miles of peaceful and rustic hiking trails and a picnic shelter. Easy access to Fruitville Road, leading to I-75, downtown Sarasota, St. Armand's Circle and Lido Beach, or SR-70 and Lakewood Ranch.
