Welcome to 213 Gaines Ave — where timeless charm meets modern living in the sought-after community of Whitfield Estates. This beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 4-bath residence offers over 3,300 square feet of elegant, versatile living space on a quarter-acre lot — just minutes from Sarasota Bay and the best of the Gulf Coast. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the home’s curb appeal — with a brand-new custom front landscape design, lush greenery for added privacy, and fresh paint inside and out. Step inside to a light-filled interior with custom-designed handmade wall panels in the dining room, hallway, and upstairs bedroom, complemented by luxury ceiling lights and new fans with remote controls throughout the home. Recent upgrades include a brand-new roof, professionally mounted SONOS home theater systems in two rooms, new door hardware, and all-new furniture — including outdoor furnishings — making this property truly move-in ready. The kitchen and living area open seamlessly to your private backyard retreat, where you’ll find a fully resurfaced pool with new equipment (2025), new pump (2025), new water heater system (2025), a redesigned irrigation system, and a custom summer kitchen with built-in grill and wine fridge.

Location is everything, and this home delivers. You’re less than 10 minutes to Downtown Sarasota for dining, culture, and entertainment, or just a short drive to St. Armands Circle, Siesta Key’s sugar sands, and Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. 213 Gaines Ave isn’t just a home — it’s a lifestyle. A rare opportunity to enjoy modern upgrades, thoughtful details, and timeless Sarasota living. Schedule your private showing today and experience it for yourself.
