Property Description

Under contract-accepting backup offers. Welcome to Cool Ranch, a private equestrian estate discreetly set behind gates on more than five acres in Old Myakka. This beautifully renovated three-bedroom, two-bath residence is complemented by a separate guest cottage with a full kitchen, offering a rare combination of refinement, flexibility, and pastoral elegance. A new roof installed in 2025 underscores the thoughtful stewardship of the property, which blends timeless country character with modern comforts. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is designed as a natural gathering place, featuring a generous center island with seating, double ovens, abundant cabinetry, pantry storage, and a reverse osmosis system. A whole-home water softener adds everyday convenience. Glass doors open to an expansive screened lanai, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors and inviting quiet mornings or relaxed evenings overlooking the surrounding landscape and native wildlife. The setting is defined by mature oak trees, open pastures, and a tranquil pond, reflecting the equestrian heritage of the area while offering a sense of privacy seldom found so close to Sarasota’s amenities. Inside, vaulted ceilings, plank flooring, and an open-concept layout create a light-filled environment that flows effortlessly for both daily living and entertaining. The primary suite enjoys serene views of the pond and pastures and features a spacious walk-in closet and a well-appointed en-suite bath. One guest bedroom adjoins a versatile bonus room with exterior access, suitable for a home office, studio, or additional sleeping area. Another guest bedroom opens to a private hot tub retreat framed by a Zen-inspired garden, providing a peaceful setting for rest and relaxation. Equestrian facilities are a hallmark of Cool Ranch, including three fully fenced pastures for riding, training, or grazing, a stocked pond, and a substantial 75-by-30-foot barn with two 12-by-12 stalls and space for future expansion. A climate-controlled tack and feed room and ample storage support a range of equine pursuits. Proximity to TeraNova Equestrian Center and the Sarasota Polo Club further enhances the property’s appeal to those drawn to an active, horse-oriented lifestyle. With its guest cottage and equestrian amenities offering flexibility for a variety of uses and possible rental opportunities for both the cottage and horse stalls, Cool Ranch presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy refined country living in one of Sarasota’s most distinctive settings.
