Commanding one of the most remarkable lake and golf course vistas in University Park Country Club, this exceptional Anchor-built residence occupies a prized homesite overlooking the second hole of the championship course. The setting delivers a rare blend of water, fairway, and mature landscaping views, creating a peaceful and visually striking backdrop within one of Sarasota's most sought-after gated communities. Offering over 3,200 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this home features three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and an expansive library that can easily function as a fourth bedroom or private office.
