About this home
2534 WANETA DRIVE
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Live the Siesta Key lifestyle—just minutes from Siesta Key Beach, this updated pool home offers the rare combination of NO HOA, oversized lot space, and move-in-ready upgrades in one of Sarasota’s most desirable locations. For buyers searching for a Siesta Key area home with room for an RV or boat, private outdoor living, and beach-close convenience, this property checks the boxes. Set on a fully fenced 10,400 SF lot, the home features a wide driveway with space for RV parking, extra vehicles, or recreational storage—features that are increasingly hard to find this close to the beach. The freshly painted exterior (2025) creates strong curb appeal, while the durable metal roof (only 8 years old) adds long-term value and peace of mind. Inside, the home feels bright, fresh, and welcoming with newly painted interior walls and beautifully restored terrazzo floors that have been professionally shined and waxed(2026). Buyers looking for charm, easy maintenance, and true Florida character will appreciate this timeless feature. The private screened swimming pool and lanai were remodeled in 2025, creating a turnkey outdoor retreat ready for year-round enjoyment. Host gatherings, unwind after a beach day, or enjoy a quiet morning coffee poolside—this is the indoor-outdoor lifestyle buyers want in Sarasota. Additional highlights include an updated new electrical panel (2025), dedicated laundry room, and a flexible office/den ideal for remote work, hobbies, fourth bedroom, and or guest accommodations. Conveniently located near Gulf Gate dining and shopping, with Siesta Promenade nearby, this property is equally appealing as a primary residence, vacation getaway, or investment opportunity. No HOA. Pool home. Oversized lot. RV parking. Minutes to Siesta Key. Rarely does one home have this much flexibility, location, and lifestyle.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
