About 2225 Valencia Dr
This home has survived 68 years with no water intrusion!! Presenting a time capsule home, perfectly frozen in 1956, when cars had tail-fins and Elvis was on the airwaves. The current owner of 25 years was once a museum conservator and used museum conservation techniques to bring this house back to its glory years. As you enter, feel embraced by the open feel of the space and the panoramic view of the backyard! The tropical foliage in the backyard allows for privacy and is the perfect backdrop for your outdoor activities. You will find details of the past throughout the home. Original matching grey and pink boomerang formica cover the kitchen countertops and the built in dresser countertops. The original angled kitchen cabinets are a rarity to see today! As your eyes focus in the center of the room, enjoy the cozy, oversized great room. Notice the high ceilings with original ceiling beams! In the primary bathroom, a unique "L" shaped vanity with Jack & Jill sinks maximizes the space with the shower and toilet privately tucked behind the vanity. Every room has clerestory windows allowing natural light throughout the home. Under the carpeting and in areas of the home, you will find the original cuban green terrazzo. The 3rd guest bedroom ensuite has a wall of glass blocks and is perfect for an office/studio/craft room. This space has a separate side entrance and its own dedicated mini split AC system. You will find the gulf beaches just a short trip away! 4.7 miles to Siesta Key Beach, 6.5 miles to Lido Beach. Sarasota Memorial Hospital is 1.8 miles away and the new mixed development coming soon in The Westfield Siesta Key Mall is walking distance. Bring your 45's and enjoy 1956 again!
