3607 LONGMEADOW 45 Under contract-accepting backup offers. Looking for an inexpensive, low HOA fee, turnkey villa in an amenity-rich neighborhood that could benefit from a refresh? This ideal pied-à-terre or perhaps an idyllic full-time residence offers everything you’ll need for a relaxing life. Briarfield is a small, quiet enclave of less than 50 villa-like homes in the heart of the Meadows community and country club. Residence 3607 is at the quietest end of the community and offered turnkey, right down to the spoons! As you enter the home, a beautiful green-space view is visible from the front door through the great room and lanai. In fact, the screened private lanai may just be where you’ll spend much of your time, looking out at the flora, fauna and manicured grounds beyond. The rest of the residence provides wonderful features, including a well-planned kitchen with solid wood cabinetry, a coffee bar, closet pantry and a view of the gardens in front. The vaulted, spacious great room provides ample space for everyday life and entertaining a few guests. This home also offers pretty views from the two generous bedrooms with en suites, both with large walk-in closets and private baths, one with a step-in shower, the other a tub and shower. And, if you prefer to have your vehicle protected from the elements, you’ll be happy to find a deeded, covered garage space complete with an automatic overhead door. This residence also includes a new HVAC system installed in 2023 with a 10-year transferable warranty. Briarfield is conveniently in close distance of the wellness center, country club, tennis courts and recreational trails. The Meadows is a 1, 650-acre park-like planned community offering a new modern wellness center, well-maintained golf courses, country club amenities, an active village center, 14 miles of walking paths, tennis and pickleball courts, and two private off-leash dog parks. There are also two fenced and secured outdoor storage lots for RVs, boats or extra vehicles. If being close to the thriving University Town Center, the exciting events and endless open spaces of Nathan Benderson Park while being only 15 minutes to downtown Sarasota and our celebrated beaches is what you seek, this home is your ideal fit!
