Description

Extensively Upgraded Carlyle with Raised-Volume Kitchen, New Roof (2025), 20 kW Whole-House Generator & Water Views – $889,900

Located within the highly desirable VillageWalk community, this extensively upgraded Carlyle model offers a rare combination of architectural enhancements, major capital replacements, and thoughtfully designed interior improvements.

Unlike the original Carlyle configuration, the kitchen ceiling was opened to full height, removing the dropped ceiling and suspended cabinetry. This creates a dramatic, seamless transition into the family room. The result is a striking open-concept living space rarely found in the community.

With significant post-purchase enhancements and key systems already updated, this home delivers both immediate comfort and long-term peace of mind.

The Carlyle floorplan provides additional square footage beyond the standard Oakmont footprint, including a fourth bedroom currently configured as a dedicated office, an additional full bath, a dedicated craft/flex room, and an enlarged formal dining space.

The reimagined kitchen and living space anchor the home, featuring full-height ceiling volume, quality wood cabinetry, and a custom-built entertainment center designed to match. Porcelain tile flooring runs throughout the main living areas, reinforcing the cohesive design and open flow to the lanai.

The primary suite features VillageWalk’s signature dual-bath layout, enhanced by a fully remodeled and enlarged walk-through steam shower with premium tile finishes, updated vanities, cabinetry, fixtures, and lighting—creating a spa-like retreat rarely found in the community.

Additional interior features include:
• Plantation shutters installed on the interior side of all windows and sliders
• Hall bath remodeled with walk-in shower
• Custom ClosetTec built-ins in multiple bedrooms
• Integrated wall bed system in one guest bedroom
• Dedicated office with custom cabinetry and desks (fourth bedroom configuration)
• Craft/flex room with built-in cabinetry and work surfaces
• Garage cabinetry and work benches by StorPro

Significant capital components have already been replaced or upgraded:
• New roof, gutters, and downspouts (2025)
• New A/C system (2022)
• 20 kW whole-house generator with automatic transfer switch, powered by buried 500-gallon propane tank
• Whole-house water filtration system (updated 2025)
• Pool filter (2020), heater (2022), pump and salt system (2025)

Comprehensive hurricane protection includes accordion shutters, impact windows in select locations, and a powered roll-down lanai shade.

The private rear lanai and pool area overlook tranquil water views and feature travertine pavers, creating an elegant outdoor living environment. A built-in outdoor grilling area includes a premium Fire Magic propane grill connected to the home’s buried propane system—ideal for entertaining and seamless indoor-outdoor living.

The widened driveway allows for comfortable side-by-side vehicle access.

VillageWalk offers resort-style amenities including town center, pools, fitness center, tennis, bocce, and on-site dining—within a gated, amenity-rich setting.

    "No place for children to play; apartment housing mostly in the area plus assisted living close by along with gated communities. Mostly area is set up for singles or couples. Not alot of areas for kids to play in ,only walking/biking path for families to utilize. There is a community garden nearby. Have to have a vehicle to grocery shop, banking or pharmacy. "

    "there are mostly over 65 aged population living in this neighborhood. Schools are a long way away and the few children who live here are bussed to the neighborhood. County maintains the streets in this development also county controls parking so that can be problematic. "

    "It’s a wonderful family friendly environment for all ages and lifestyles. I find it unique in its neighborhoods. That’s what Palmer Ranch is maintaining in its expansion; its developing families, friends and neighbors. Safe enjoyable, lush and continuously maintained landscaping are just some of the reasons to enjoy the outdoors! The Legacy Trail, Siesta Key, St. Armands Cir., Longboat Key are in a quick drive (depending on the season) and there are plenty of local stores, shops, and restaurants to choose from. This is my paradise! A gorgeous genuinely safe, people friendly, lush and peaceful environment all 10 minutes from the beach’s! Palmer Ranch, I’m home!"

    "Great neighborhoods in Palmer Ranch! Respectful neighbors, drivers that stop for crosswalks and help each other safely get animals that need assistance cross our sometimes busy road. The endless beautifully landscaped sidewalks, friendly passers by, dogs parks, the Legacy Trail, periodic benches for resting and close enough to stores to re-hydrated or replenish."

    "Village Walk is obviously a very walkable neighborhood. With exercise trails leading to community recreation facilities such as tennis courts, fitness center and lagoon pool(s). Neighbors can always been seen walking, with family or pets enjoy this area. With all this nature the community still has it's own shops AND is close to all Palmer Ranch has to offer. Check it out today!!! "

    "It's a very safe and very clean and well manicured area. Really about the only place to buy in Sarasota for the $250K to $550K price range that isn't all junky and hodge podge. The only problem for me would be the lack of good restaurants in the area. You have to drive downtown for that, but you'd not get much for your money if looking for a home downtown---- so, it's a real toss-up here. But a very lovely area to live in-- and the safest in Sarasota except maybe for Laurel Oaks area which is way too far out and way too stiff (and higher in price)."
