4244 Central Sarasota Parkway, Unit 714Sarasota, FL 34238Price: $280,000

Located within the gated Palmer Ranch community of Plaza De Flores, this updated first-floor residence combines modern interior finishes, hurricane-rated construction, and a Sarasota address that puts Siesta Key Beach, the Legacy Trail, Gulf Gate dining, downtown Sarasota, and Interstate 75 all within minutes. Major improvements completed between 2022 and 2026 include a new roof, new carports, hurricane impact windows and sliders, a new AC system, and a comprehensive interior renovation, creating a property that is genuinely move-in ready and available optionally furnished. One of the more distinctive qualities of Plaza De Flores is its concrete construction between floors and concrete party walls between units, providing a level of sound insulation and structural integrity that sets it apart from most condominium communities in the area. Inside, the residence reflects a cohesive renovation with new ceramic tile flooring throughout, fresh interior texture and paint completed in 2025, new baseboards added in 2026, and plantation shutters installed throughout. The open living and dining layout flows naturally to a screened lanai, capturing the relaxed indoor-outdoor flow that defines everyday life in Southwest Florida. The kitchen was refreshed with all new appliances in 2024 and a new tile backsplash in 2026, while the guest bathroom received a full remodel the same year including a new vanity, mirror, lighting, and toilet. The primary bathroom features a newly retiled shower floor completed in 2026, and a newer washer and dryer round out the appliance profile. The property sits outside of any flood zone, and the well-maintained gated community offers a clubhouse, fitness center, tennis courts, community pool & spa. Siesta Key Beach, the Legacy Trail multiuse path, Gulf Gate shops and restaurants, Sarasota Memorial Hospital, Costco, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, and Interstate 75 are all within a short drive, with downtown Sarasota's waterfront dining, arts venues, and cultural district just beyond.
