Welcome to 2519 Wood Oak Drive - a charming, move-in ready 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home nestled in the heart of Sarasota's desirable Colonial Oaks neighborhood. Built in 1988 and lovingly maintained, this home offers 1,625 sq ft of heated living space with a generous 3,393 sq ft total footprint - giving you room to live, store, and truly spread out. From the moment you arrive, the pride of ownership is evident - freshly painted inside and out in a modern gray palette, this home feels bright, clean, and like new. The open layout flows effortlessly from the living areas to the kitchen, which features like-new appliances ready for your next home-cooked meal. The split bedroom floor plan provides privacy for the primary suite while keeping the common areas open and inviting. For added everyday convenience, the washer and dryer are located inside the home - not in the garage. Major updates give buyers exceptional peace of mind: the home received a new roof in 2025, accompanied by a wind mitigation inspection confirming the roof is attached with a 3rd nail and single wraps - a detail that can translate to meaningful homeowner's insurance savings. A 4-point inspection completed in January 2026 documented the roof, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems all in approved condition with zero repairs required. Additionally, new gutters with gutter guards were installed in 2023, rounding out a home that has been carefully and proactively maintained from top to bottom. Step outside and discover your own private retreat - a lovely screened porch overlooking the backyard, perfect for enjoying Florida's beautiful weather year-round without the bugs. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee, hosting friends, or simply unwinding after a long day, this outdoor space will quickly become your favorite spot in the house. The fully fenced yard beyond offers additional privacy and plenty of room for pets or play. A spacious 2-car garage completes this well-appointed home, providing ample storage and everyday convenience. Located just minutes from I-75, top-rated schools, Colonial Oaks Park, and an abundance of shopping and dining - with the world-renowned Siesta Key Beach only a short drive away - this home delivers the ideal blend of comfort, location, and lifestyle. The community HOA helps maintain the neighborhood's beauty and pride, making this an even smarter investment for years to come. Move-in ready, meticulously maintained, and loaded with updates - come experience the best of Sarasota living!
