About this House

Experience the "magic" of an authentic bo macewen designed home built to exacting specifications and dedicated attention to detail. As you approach, the front elevation is reminiscent of the Old Florida charm from a bygone era. Entering the magnificent grand foyer, you know immediately you are someplace special. The wainscot walls, the expansive moldings, arches and niches, right down to the herringbone designed brick floors, all are beautiful examples of pure bo macewen. Nestled among mature oaks the setting couldn't be more perfect. The 4 bedroom suites, 4.5 Bath home expands over 4600 Sq. Ft. of tasteful living and entertaining. Brick patios and pool decks invite you to enjoy all that Florida living has to offer. Bertha palmer, of the chicago palmers, had her choice to live anywhere on all her expansive land holdings, but she chose what is now called "Oaks Bayside" for her home. With good reason!

    "I don’t commute....retired. There are no sidewalks here and our street has a large amount of speeders making walking dangerous. Some neighbors park on the county right of way destroying our water flow/drainage which has caused flooding here. Many homes are unkept even though there is an active hoa."

    "Wonderful community, close to Sarasota and all restaurants, cultural activities, etc. The condo development is a designated bird sanctuary. Nice pools, exercise room, community room. Good neighbors. What the development lacks is diversity. "

    "I work here, belong to the club and have lived in the neighborhood for the last 12 years it is one of 5 golf communities I have belonged to and bar none my favorite due to the people that live here. They are multicultural, down to earth and just fabulous. This is a community that rates above the rest . it is very common for folks to move up and down in house sizes and styles as their lifestyles change. Give me a call as I'd love to show you around. "
