Property details
About 4500 Chinkapin Dr
Tucked away at the end of a quiet, dead-end street with no thru traffic, this beautifully upgraded end-unit townhome offers the perfect balance of space, privacy, and convenience—plus a rare assumable VA mortgage rate that could save you big, if you are a Veteran. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a spacious primary suite on the first floor, this floor plan lives large. The kitchen steals the show with more cabinet and countertop space than any other model—ideal for cooking, entertaining, or just spreading out with your morning coffee. You’ll love the Brazilian chestnut wood floors in the main living area and the plush carpeting upstairs. At the top of the stairs, there’s a cozy office nook—perfect for remote work or homework. Also upstairs is an upgraded bonus room, a feature not found in all units, offering flexible space for a guest room, home gym, or media area. Enjoy TWO private, screened outdoor living areas: a downstairs lanai and an upstairs balcony, both surrounded by peaceful preserve views with no future development behind you. Notable upgrades & features include: generator hookup with transfer switch already installed, new roof (2025), building painted (2024), HVAC system with two zones and AC coil replaced in 2024, downstairs laundry room, and wiring for a full security system. Living here means low-maintenance living at its finest. The HOA covers landscaping and irrigation, water and sewer, roof and exterior building insurance, reserves for roads and exterior maintenance, and gated access for added peace of mind. And since your homeowners insurance only needs to cover walls-in coverage, you're avoiding the cost of insuring the roof, exterior, and major systems—a $3,000–$4,000+ value if you had to pay for all of that separately. That’s money back in your pocket and less to worry about. Located just minutes from I-75, UTC Mall, Nathan Benderson Park, the new Mote Aquarium, and Sarasota’s best restaurants and cultural hot spots, this townhome is move-in ready and a true standout in the community. If you’re looking for an upgraded, low-maintenance home in a peaceful setting—this is the one.
