    What's special

    Experience the essence of waterfront island living from this tropical Siesta Key home, located on Sarasota Bay with deeded beach access. Tucked away on the quieter south end of the key, the secluded island setting is completely private with mature plantings and sweeping water views. Custom-built to reflect a Key West meets Nantucket style, you will be enchanted by the coastal personality and open floorplan across three levels-- with your own elevator to whisk you from space-to-space. Connected to the family room, a delightfully-sized kitchen allows you to play host or everyday chef with equal parts grace, and features on-trend cabinetry, gleaming countertops and appliances. A beautifully detailed living and dining room provide the ideal settings for entertaining. Retreat to the master suite, where views of the bay invite you to soak in the waterside surroundings over your morning latte. The master bath offers a soaking tub and separate shower - all with water views. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms with Jack and Jill bath, billiard/ media room, and office/exercise room with amazing views. Florida living is all about the outdoors, and this property simply dazzles with its resort-style pool and spa, covered dining space, and beautiful dock with kayak launch. You'll appreciate the five-car garage and deeded beach access or head to Siesta Beach. Start living the island life at its meant to be. Just over the bridge you'll find the endless arts and culture of Sarasota.
