Description

This is one of the most affordable homes in MYAKKA VALLEY RANCHES, the biggest equestrian community in the area. This 3 bedroom, 2-bath pool home was built by the current owners in 1988. Although situated on a corner, this property has plenty of privacy,thanks to the many big oak trees that surround the home. This is an excellent property for horses, with good drainage. It is fenced and cross- fenced and has two ponds. Your horses will love the 4-stall barn, while you can store your equipment in...This is one of the most affordable homes in MYAKKA VALLEY RANCHES, the biggest equestrian community in the area. This 3 bedroom, 2-bath pool home was built by the current owners in 1988. Although situated on a corner, this property has plenty of privacy,thanks to the many big oak trees that surround the home. This is an excellent property for horses, with good drainage. It is fenced and cross- fenced and has two ponds. Your horses will love the 4-stall barn, while you can store your equipment in the bigtool shed. A saddle trail runs behind the property, and gives you access to the many miles of beautiful saddle trails that make Myakka Valley such a unique place to live. The house needs serious cleaning, and some paint, but it has a newer roof, a/c, andwater heater, and structurally-speaking, everything seems to be OK. This is a great opportunity to own your own affordable Sarasota country home, only half an hour from the white beaches of Siesta Key. Good schools, restaurants, and shops are all near by. It is real easy to make new friends: the subdivision has a horse club, book club, and women's forum. Myakka River State Park, Florida's biggest state park, borders the subdivision. It does not get any better!
