26013 81ST DRIVE E MYAKKA CITY FL 34251 MLS #A4691266

This estate-style residence offers a rare blend of refined privacy and complete freedom on a spacious 123-foot wide by 187-foot deep lot in Myakka City. Meticulously de-risked for the sophisticated buyer, the property features a brand-new roof installed in 2025 and a high-efficiency 17 SEER rated Trane HVAC system replaced in 2021, ensuring the primary structural elements of this 2006-built Manatee County estate are optimized for long-term performance. Freshly curated with designer paint inside and out, the home serves as a secure sanctuary, fully enclosed by a 2024 privacy fence and professional-grade invisible pet fencing. The thoughtfully designed floor plan is engineered for both grand entertaining and quiet daily life, featuring a central open-concept living area that connects a well-appointed, user-friendly kitchen to the screened lanai and salt-water pool area. The 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom layout includes a dedicated den for a professional home office and a master suite that serves as a true retreat with direct pool access and a five-piece ensuite, while the split-bedroom wing offers versatility with a Jack-and-Jill bath. Offering a level of convenience rarely found in comparable homes, one of the three bathrooms features direct exterior door access to the pool area, serving as a dedicated pool bath for guests. Intentional upgrades include an updated whole-house water filtration system with reverse osmosis under the sink and custom storage shelving to maximize the front-facing two-car garage. Positioned in a unique non-deed restricted enclave, this estate allows for on-site RV and boat storage without the oversight of an HOA or the tax burden of CDD fees. Homeowners enjoy substantial monthly savings and operational autonomy via private well and septic systems, eliminating recurring public utility bills. While the property offers a secluded country escape on over a half-acre of beautifully wooded land, it remains exceptionally well-located near the upscale dining and shopping of Lakewood Ranch and UTC, as well as the world-renowned Gulf beaches of Bradenton and Sarasota. This is a rare opportunity to bypass the complexities of traditional homeownership and enjoy a secure Florida lifestyle on your own terms. Own what’s real!
