Residential Property - Single Family Residence in Nokomis
Listing Price: $1,598,000
Description of Property
Set within the quiet, private enclave of the Preserve at Mission Valley, 793 Vanderbilt Drive presents a rare opportunity priced below a recent appraised value, offering exceptional advantages in today’s market. While there are other fine homes available, few can match the combination of privacy, infrastructure, condition, and location found here. Positioned on a true dead-end cul-de-sac with little to no traffic, this residence is one of only 17 homes on the street. Elevated approximately 13 feet above sea level and spanning just over one acre, the property offers remarkable scale, privacy, and long-term resilience. The grounds alone represent a significant investment, with over $300,000 in professional landscaping creating a natural privacy barrier through mature specimen trees and lush plantings. A new sprinkler system supplied by a dedicated well supports the landscaping, while city water and sewer provide everyday convenience. Spanning nearly 4,000 square feet under air with soaring 12-foot ceilings, the five-bedroom residence offers generous proportions and thoughtful design throughout. Six rooms feature Hickory hardwood flooring, and no interior or exterior painting is needed. The home is in pristine condition and meticulously maintained. Major systems have been comprehensively updated for peace of mind, including a new roof (2024), three new HVAC systems, a new water heater (2025), conversion of the pool to saltwater, and a 24kW whole-house generator supported by a 500-gallon propane tank capable of running every appliance and outlet in the home. Hurricane-impact windows provide structural security and exceptional sound insulation. Inside, it is remarkably quiet. Outside, extensive specimen trees further reduce ambient noise, creating a true tranquil environment rarely found this close to Sarasota’s lifestyle amenities. The covered lanai is equipped with a motorized storm screen rated to 170 mph, offering additional protection and flexibility during inclement weather. A heated pool and spa complete the outdoor living experience, along with a convenient pool bath. Security is comprehensive and high-quality, with video surveillance throughout the property recorded to a DVR system. Additionally, the sellers have prepared a detailed list of every contractor associated with the home, an invaluable resource for future ownership. The four-car, side-facing garage includes an exceptional fourth bay currently utilized as an air-conditioned storage and flex space, ideal for a workshop, fitness room, collector storage, or hobby space. Beyond the property lines, the location enhances value even further. The home is near the new Sarasota Memorial Hospital campus, area marinas, Nokomis Beach, and downtown Sarasota, placing boating, Gulf access, dining, and cultural amenities within easy reach. 793 Vanderbilt Drive is not simply another home on the market — it is a strategically positioned, infrastructure-forward residence offering privacy, durability, and long-term value in a wonderful community. Located just minutes from top-rated schools, Mission Valley Country Club, the Legacy Trail, and everyday conveniences, 793 Vanderbilt Drive offers a refined yet practical expression of Florida living, one that balances privacy, preparedness, and proximity to the Gulf Coast lifestyle.
