Property Description

Welcome to 5251 Bunyan Street — a property that offers endless potential in one of Sarasota's most convenient and desirable locations. Nestled on a spacious fenced corner lot, this three-bedroom, two-bath home blends traditional comfort with the opportunity to customize and modernize to your personal taste.
From the moment you arrive, you'll notice the mature landscaping and curb appeal that highlight the charm of this established neighborhood. Step inside to find a formal living and dining area, ideal for entertaining guests or hosting family gatherings. The layout provides great separation between living spaces, offering both functionality and flow for everyday living.
The family room creates a warm and inviting space for relaxation, featuring sliding doors that open to the backyard — perfect for enjoying Florida's year-round sunshine. Enjoy and evening around the fireplace. The kitchen, while ready for updating, provides a generous footprint with plenty of cabinetry, countertop space, and a convenient layout that could easily transform into a modern chef's dream with a few personal touches.
All three bedrooms are comfortably sized with ample closet space. The primary suite includes an ensuite bath and privacy from the main living areas, while the secondary bedrooms share a full hall bath. With a bit of renovation and creativity, you can unlock the full potential of this floor plan and make it shine.
Outside, the large fenced backyard offers plenty of room for children and pets to play, or the opportunity to design your own tropical oasis — add a pool, create an outdoor kitchen, or build the garden you've always wanted. The corner lot provides additional space and flexibility for parking, storage, or future enhancements.
Located just minutes from downtown Sarasota, I-75, University Town Center, and the world-renowned beaches of Siesta Key and Lido Key, this home places you near everything Southwest Florida has to offer — fine dining, shopping, top-rated schools, medical facilities, and cultural attractions like The Ringling Museum and Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall.
This property is ideal for a first-time homebuyer, investor, or anyone looking to purchase a well-built Sarasota home with tremendous upside potential. With some updates and vision, 5251 Bunyan Street could become your dream home or a strong long-term investment in a thriving market
