About this home
Welcome to 5516 Cartagena Drive, a beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath lakefront home with 1,842 square feet in the COMPLETELY MAINTENANCE FREE intimate gated community of Ashton Pointe, a private 49-home enclave with quiet cul-de-sac streets. The open-concept interior features tile flooring, crown molding, and a spacious kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a large island, and generous pantry. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet and en suite bath with granite double vanity, walk-in shower, and soaking tub. Enjoy peaceful lake views from the backyard, along with a gated area. Additional features include a dedicated laundry room and true two-car garage with storage racks. Major upgrades include a new high-efficiency, two-stage Comfort-Maker heat pump A/C system with all-new duct-work installed September 2025, backed by a 10-year warranty, plus an Air Scrubber purification system, electronic air cleaner, and new attic insulation for enhanced efficiency and comfort. Conveniently located just off Clark Road near shopping, dining, I-75, and Sarasota’s Gulf beaches, this home combines lakefront living, privacy, significant recent upgrades, and an excellent Sarasota location. Strategically priced, the sellers’ firm asking price reflects the home’s exceptional value. I can also tighten this further into a more punchy **MLS-style version** while keeping all the major upgrades.

AssumptionNot a quoted rate. Ask a lender what you actually qualify for today.
From this listingThe seller's most recent annual tax bill as reported to the MLS. Your bill will differ — Florida reassesses on sale and homestead caps reset.

Starts at $0Deliberately zero until you enter a figure — we will not inflate a payment with a guess. Many homes here need it; ask us for the property's flood zone and the current policy's premium.
From this listingMonthly association fee as reported to the MLS. Confirm what it includes, and ask about special assessments.
AssumptionNot applied — your down payment is 20% or more.
