One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Step into the Siesta Key lifestyle today — no waiting for construction, no uncertainty, just effortless waterfront living. Elevated at 10.5 feet with no history of flood damage, this exceptionally maintained 2015 Key West–style home offers an exceedingly rare turnkey waterfront opportunity, combining timeless design with peace of mind, creating a sanctuary where every detail has been carefully considered. Imagine mornings in your chef-inspired kitchen, quartz counters gleaming, Thermador appliances, and a gas stove ready for weekend brunches. Walls of glass invite sunlight into the great room and open to a covered lanai with outdoor kitchen, heated saltwater pool, carefully maintained landscaping, and majestic oak trees, where afternoons flow seamlessly into evenings spent entertaining family and friends. A versatile den/office provides a quiet retreat or workspace, and the outdoor shower makes rinsing off after a day on the water effortless. Outside, a wide waterfront canal with private dock, 13,000-lb boat lift, and fish cleaning station offers direct access to the Intracoastal — perfect for boating, yachting, and all water adventures with only one bridge to navigate. The 3-car split garage provides space for a collector car, golf cart, or hobby projects, while impact windows, a whole-house generator, and updated HVAC ensure comfort, safety, and peace of mind. The split floor plan offers privacy for guests with en suite baths, while the primary suite is your own private retreat. Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac and WIDE canal, just minutes from Siesta Village, award-winning beaches, dining, shopping, and Sarasota’s vibrant arts scene, this walkable, bikeable, and kayak-friendly neighborhood lets you enjoy everything the Key has to offer without ever getting in your car — every day feels like a vacation.
