Description of Property

Rarely available! This coastal contemporary masterpiece sits on 18,000 square feet of prime bayfront on St. Armands Key. Unobstructed views of Sarasota Bay create a stunning backdrop from every angle, enhancing the beauty of this custom-built home, completed in 2021. Offering 5,064 square feet of elegant living space, the residence features four bedrooms, four and a half baths, and two bonus rooms easily adaptable as extra bedrooms. Expansive decks and lush outdoor areas capture the essence of Florida living. Inside, an airy, open floor plan connects a light-filled living room, cozy sitting area with an electric fireplace, and a chef’s kitchen equipped with high-end appliances. The serene master retreat, with an expansive terrace, offers dramatic views of the pool and bay, where each sunrise unfolds like a masterpiece, inviting tranquility and inspiration. Two additional guest suites, each with private terraces, and a third suite with a built-in Murphy bed, provide ample comfort and privacy. Outside, a two-tiered stone deck, saltwater pool, firepit, and verdant landscaping are perfect for entertaining or tranquil al fresco dining. Boaters will appreciate the dock accommodating a 15,000-pound vessel, with a lower launch for kayaks and canoes. Practical conveniences include a whole-house water filtration system, three HVAC zones, a generator, elevator, security systems, and two one and a half garages with electric car chargers and epoxy-coated floors. When you're ready to venture beyond your private paradise, the chic boutiques and acclaimed restaurants of St. Armands Circle are just two blocks away.
