The kitchen is equally well equipped, with quartz countertops, a breakfast nook overlooking the pool, a convenient in-kitchen pantry with slide-outs, and a large walk-in pantry/appliance garage that can handle everything from everyday storage to your next Costco run. Beyond the glass, the Florida lifestyle takes over. * The expansive screened lanai overlooks the golf course and opens to a HEATED SALTWATER POOL AND SPA, shaded entertaining area, outdoor grilling space, retractable awning, and color-changing LED lighting.** There's room to dine, lounge, swim, or simply enjoy a quiet morning overlooking the fairway. A fenced side yard for furry friends or gardening and a backyard citrus cocktail tree add the finishing touches. For the golf enthusiast, the setting is hard to beat. For everyone else, it provides something equally valuable: **space, long views, and a beautiful gated community. The home also delivers the kind of behind-the-scenes features that make a property at this level easier to own. **Impact windows, new impact garage doors, hurricane curtains enclosing the lanai, solar panels, and a Tesla Powerwall** provide added protection and energy flexibility. The oversized 3-car garage features epoxy floors, an EV charger hookup, insulation, and its own freestanding A/C—ideal for vehicles, recreational equipment, or even a private golf simulator. All of this is set within **Laurel Oak Estates**, an established, guard-gated community known for mature landscaping, natural preserves, golf-cart-friendly streets, wide sidewalks and a welcoming neighborhood atmosphere. Residents have the option to join the private club—but **club membership is not required to live here.** With **NO CDD**, guarded entry, patrolled security, and access to Sarasota-area schools, 7767 Alister Mackenzie Drive offers an exceptional balance of privacy, space, recreation, and everyday livability. **If you've been searching for a Sarasota home where you can spread out, entertain beautifully, enjoy the golf-course setting, and make the most of every season of life, this one deserves to be seen in person.**
