About 5856 Meriwether Pl

Tucked away in a quiet gated enclave of just 16 homes, this newer (2017) modern residence is a hidden treasure, offering both style and location. Situated at the northeast corner of Sawyer and Bee Ridge, the property feels surprisingly private while placing you just minutes from Sarasota Memorial Hospital, downtown Sarasota, and the north Siesta Key bridge. As a rare bonus, this home sits directly on the Legacy Trail, providing immediate access to miles of scenic biking and walking paths. Offered furnished with high-quality pieces from Crate & Barrel and West Elm, the home is truly move-in ready. Crafted with attention to detail and built to the highest standards, its solid block construction includes spray foam insulation, hurricane-impact windows and sliders, 8-foot solid-core interior doors, and an impact door package for the garage and front entry. The manicured exterior showcases artificial turf and lush landscaping, all designed for low maintenance and maximum curb appeal. Inside, the open-concept layout spans nearly 2,500 square feet plus 400 square-foot covered lanai, with soaring 10-foot ceilings and a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A wall of pocketing sliders in the spacious living area leads to the covered and screened patio, allowing you to enjoy the Florida lifestyle year-round. The hub of the home’s design is the gourmet kitchen, featuring quartz countertops, a waterfall-edge island with seating, and top-of-the-line Fisher Paykel appliances—including dual built-in convection ovens, an induction cooktop, and integrated panel-covered appliances for a sleek finish. A built-in buffet in the adjacent dining area with double wine coolers adds a thoughtful touch for entertaining. The primary suite offers a serene escape, complete with private access to the pool deck and a spa-like en-suite bath outfitted with designer finishes. Three guest bedrooms, one is en-suite with its own walk-in closet, complete the layout.

The backyard is fully fenced and gated for peace of mind, with custom lighting to enhance the ambiance. Whether you're hosting friends or enjoying quiet evenings at home, this backyard was designed for effortless enjoyment.
