Description of Property
A Rare Gulf-Front Opportunity on Siesta Key’s Iconic Point of Rocks Welcome to The Sugar Shack—a quintessential beach home nestled directly on one of the most exclusive and sought-after stretches of Sarasota’s coastline. Located between Siesta Key and Longboat Key, this is one of the most affordable Gulf-front properties currently available. Offered as-is due to some recent hurricane damage, this home presents an exceptional opportunity to update, remodel, or reimagine a coastal retreat to your own taste. Perched above the shoreline on the ancient limestone formations of Point of Rocks—estimated to be over 3,000 years old—this elevated property offers breathtaking, unobstructed views of the Gulf of Mexico and spectacular year-round sunsets. The surrounding waters are teeming with sea life and are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, or paddleboarding right from your backyard. The Sugar Shack features 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms across a split-level floorplan that offers thoughtful separation of space—ideal for hosting guests or accommodating family. Multiple indoor and outdoor living and dining areas provide endless potential for entertaining, relaxing, and embracing the beach lifestyle. With over one-third of an acre of direct Gulf-front property, this rare parcel opens the door to countless possibilities: renovate the current home, expand its footprint, or build your dream coastal estate from the ground up. Just a short walk or bike ride takes you to Siesta Key’s famous Crescent Beach or the vibrant shops and restaurants of Crescent Village. The free island trolley or a quick golf cart ride connects you to the lively Siesta Village for even more dining, shopping, and nightlife. With its prime location, historic setting, and unmatched beach access, The Sugar Shack offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a piece of paradise on Florida’s Gulf Coast.
