About This Home

A residence of sophistication and luxury, this exceptional home was thoughtfully designed to bring family and friends together—sharing good food, meaningful connection, and the enjoyment of elevated everyday living. Ideally located just 8 miles from Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, 12 minutes to Siesta Key Beach, and 10 minutes to downtown Sarasota, the property is in close proximity to The Ringling, Van Wezel, Selby Gardens, Asolo, premier dining and shopping, The Field Club, and the Sarasota Yacht Club—creating a seamless blend of culture, convenience, and coastal lifestyle. Elegant yet warm and approachable, the home blends refined architecture with tropical elements, including stone columns, metal pergolas, concrete textures, and lush landscaping, creating a relaxed oasis unlike any other. A surrounding stucco wall enhances privacy, allowing you to unwind to the soothing sound of a tranquil fountain within a peaceful, secluded setting. The main living spaces were intentionally designed for gathering, featuring bead-board stained ceilings in the family room, formal living room, and dining area. The cook’s kitchen is both striking and highly functional, highlighted by a glazed pressed-tin ceiling, unpolished concrete floors, and views into the kitchen garden through multiple French doors and expansive windows—perfectly suited for both everyday living and entertaining.
