Turn into Chelmsford Close and you immediately realize you are not in an average community. Buildings and grounds are impeccably maintained. The villas are of solid block construction capped with barrel tile roofs. Chelmsford Close is one of the most recently constructed communities in The Meadows (no popcorn ceilings, no cast iron plumbing). Enter your private courtyard through the iron gate. Step into the villa and your eyes are immediately drawn to the 10 foot ceiling capped with classic crown molding accented with parallel picture molding. Your den/office is open to the kitchen, but can be isolated by a sliding pair of leaded glass pocket doors. The kitchen is bright, has a triple window set for plenty of light in the breakfast area. Granite countertops, solid 3/4" Manhattan style maple cabinets and Stainless Steel appliances round out the kitchen. For relaxation, enjoy a refreshment on your glassed/screened lanai with plantation shutters surrounding for privacy. There you can take in the view of the 10th hole of the private Meadows course. Kitchen and baths have all undergone recent high-end renovations. And for your comfort and security all windows have recently been replaced with high-impact (Hurricane) energy-efficient glass. And the Villa has a whole house alarm system. The Meadows is a quiet enclave in rapidly growing Sarasota County- 15 minutes from downtown. You'll have access to miles of walking/biking trails, and all that The Meadows Country Club has to offer. Club membership is optional, and offered at different levels, but many amenities are offered to you at no extra cost just for being a Meadows resident. Some of the country's most beautiful beaches are nearby, as well as world-class arts and culture, restaurants, entertainment and shopping- you're literally a 5 minute walk to Benderson Park and just 2 miles from the mall at University Town Center. THIS is the Sarasota lifestyle!
