Welcome to 3825 Parkridge — Cozy, Updated, and Exactly Where You Want to Be. This second-floor, 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo in the gated community of Parkridge offers 1,036 square feet of well-used space and real value at $231,000. Inside, it’s been thoughtfully updated and is move in ready. Luxury vinyl flooring runs throughout. The kitchen has been remodeled with new stainless appliances, updated fixtures, and a hidden pantry built into a shelved wall—giving you more storage without sacrificing clean lines. A glass wall between the dining area and stairwell opens the space and brings in natural light, giving the home a more open feel than you’d expect at this size. The primary bath has been redone and feels clean and current. A new garage door opener is already in place—one less thing for the next owner to handle. The HOA covers the essentials—pool, exterior maintenance, water, sewer, basic cable, and grounds—so the day-to-day ownership is straightforward and predictable. Parkridge is gated, well-kept, and established, with a heated pool and lake views throughout the community. Location is where this property separates itself. You’re just off University Parkway—minutes to UTC, Whole Foods Market, Detwiler's Farm Market, and Publix. Downtown Sarasota, Siesta Key Beach, and Lido Key Beach are a short drive, and Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport is about five miles away. If you’re looking for something move-in ready, low maintenance, and well-located—this is a clean, logical choice. It works as a primary residence, seasonal property, or investment without stretching the numbers. Easy to show
