Opportunity knocks at 5938 Murdock Ave, a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offering 1,381 square feet of potential in the heart of Gulf Gate Estates. Priced to invite your imagination, this residence is a rare canvas for buyers eager to build sweat equity in one of South Sarasota's most established and convenient neighborhoods. Set on one of the area's largest lots, the property enjoys a coveted position beside a tranquil pond — meaning no neighbors on one side and daily visits from Florida's wildlife. A screened front porch greets you, while a back screened lanai overlooks a sprawling backyard perfect for gardening, gathering, or simply unwinding. Inside, an eat-in kitchen flows into a comfortable living room and a flexible bonus room ready to adapt to your needs. The laundry room off the garage presents a smart opportunity to add a second full bathroom, boosting both function and value. A one-car extended garage and separate storage shed round out the practical features, and recent upgrades — including a new roof/2024 and new water heater — give you a solid foundation to renovate with confidence. The location is unbeatable. You're moments from Gulf Gate Elementary, Riverview High School, Publix at Sarasota Pavilion, and easy I-75 access. The world-famous white sands of Siesta Key sit just minutes away, adding genuine VRBO income appeal. Ready for a new generation to make it shine, this is your chance to transform potential into a personalized Sarasota retreat.

OPPORTUNITY IS KNOCKING! NO STORM DAMAGE and ONLY 2 MILES TO SIESTA KEY! Used as a rental for the last 20 years, this property is READY FOR A FRESH START. This is a TRUE THREE-BEDROOM, TWO-BATH home—no funky garage or patio conversions, which means no insane markup on a sketchy weekend warrior remodel. Here, you can update to YOUR OWN LIKING and at your own pace. INVESTORS, TAKE NOTE: This home has FANTASTIC BONES thanks to ALL BLOCK CONSTRUCTION (aside from the second carport)—from back when homes were built to last. And with a NEWER ROOF and HOT WATER TANK, that’s two less expenses you have to worry about. Inside, you’ll find ROOMS LARGER THAN YOU’D THINK, including an EAT-IN KITCHEN and a BONUS ROOM (NOT an enclosed lanai) that could be a formal dining room, playroom, office, or combine it with the primary bedroom to create a glorious owner's retreat. The laundry room under the carport is at house level, not ground level, and adjacent to the primary bath, which could allow for an owner's bathroom expansion. Reopen the few windows that were previously enclosed and revive the vibe—Florida sunshine transforms everything. A-RATED SCHOOLS across the board—elementary, middle, and high! Perfect for families. And yes, you can BRING ALL YOUR TOYS because this property is NOT DEED RESTRICTED and has plenty of space for your boat, RV, or whatever else you’ve got. LOCATION-WISE, IT CAN’T BE BEAT: You’re in the HEART OF SARASOTA, with every shopping and dining convenience imaginable nearby. The Legacy Trail is just down the road—12+ paved and pretty miles of walking, biking, rollerblading, etc. And the glorious beaches of Siesta Key are less than 10 minutes away. If you’re looking for a GREAT DEAL on a GREAT HOUSE, this is it. HURRY OVER BEFORE IT’S GONE. This MOTIVATED SELLER IS READY TO CLOSE!
