**SPACE TO LIVE. ROOM TO ENTERTAIN. A PRIVATE GOLF-COURSE LIFESTYLE.** There are homes that are beautiful—and then there are homes that make you immediately imagine the people you'll invite over. Set along the 11th tee of Laurel Oak's Jones Course, this **3,903-square-foot, one-story residence on more than 2/3 of an acre** was designed for exactly that kind of living. Whether you're raising a family and need room to spread out, or you're ready for a home where friends and family can gather with ease, this is a house that gives everyone space without ever feeling disconnected. Inside, soaring ceilings, 8-foot doors, clerestory windows, wood floors, and light-filled living spaces create an elegant but welcoming atmosphere. The open layout flows naturally from the kitchen and breakfast nook into the main living areas, while three additional bedrooms offer privacy. The spacious primary suite is its own retreat, with walk-in closets, plantation shutters, automated blackout shades, and a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub and bidet. And then there's the entertaining. A **central wet bar sits at the heart of the home, ready for everything from a casual evening with friends to a full dinner party. Built-in speakers, a wood-burning fireplace, generous bar seating, and multiple gathering spaces make entertaining feel effortless rather than formal. 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.**
