About This Home

As of October 2021

Welcome to casa de la playa, one of the most stunning beachfront properties on Siesta Key. 109 feet of sandy beach frontage on the Gulf of Mexico and unobstructed ocean views from every room create an enchanted setting for seaside living. Sprawling wraparound balconies and oversized windows orient this home to the year-round blue skies, Gulf breezes and spectacular sunsets famously found in Sarasota. Inspired by its singular waterfront location, water motifs are everywhere — from the natural stone water feature in the foyer and waterfall pool grotto to the gentle pond cascade on the walk to the beach. Once inside, the water motif expands into panoramic Gulf views, echoing the natural connection with the home's environment. The 4,712-square-foot residence has four bedrooms with en-suite baths and Gulf-facing balconies, plus a home office. Social areas include the living room, dining room, high-end kitchen, family room, game room and expansive outdoor entertaining area. A three-stop elevator provides easy access to every level. Set on over 3/4 of an acre, the property and beach are fenced and gated for privacy and features lush tropical landscape, lagoon-style swimming pool, two-level tiki hut, tidal pond and open beach area with fire pit. Located on the north end of Siesta Key, this beach retreat is less than one mile to the mainland and just 1.7 miles to Siesta Village. Life is good on the beach. Detailed feature sheet, video and 3D tour available.
