About This Home

As of June 2014

BOATERS: this one is rare! On deep, protected water in Cocoanut Bayou with no fixed bridges. This fully remodeled home on Siesta Key’s north end includes a deeded dock with water, electric, and a 20,000-pound lift—holds up to a 40' boat—with fast access to Sarasota Bay and the Gulf in under 10 minutes. Inside and out, this free-standing four-bedroom, 3.5-bath home has been thoughtfully upgraded. Recent improvements include a new roof (2024), new impact-rated PGT hurricane windows and doors, a new two-story screened lanai, fresh exterior paint, and updated community amenities including pool and dock water & electric. The home also features a private elevator and a large two-car garage, plus a finished bonus space on the lower level that adds flexibility and function (not included in the official square footage). In the exclusive gated community of Somerset Cove—just 11 homes total—this residence offers 2,757 square feet of light-filled living space across the upper two floors. The main level includes a soaring great room with a fireplace and a show-stopping kitchen with Calacatta Blanca quartz island, Thermador induction cooktop with downdraft exhaust, built-in wall oven, microwave drawer and a wine bar with refrigerator. The layout is ideal for entertaining and includes a full dining area. Additionally, there is a large guest en-suite bedroom. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a large walk-in closet, dual vanities, oversized shower, private water closet, and excellent storage. Another en-suite guest bedroom plus a fourth bedroom, completes the top floor. Downstairs, the lower-level features 800+ square feet of bonus space with durable Hardie-plank walls and access to a private covered patio. Somerset Cove is a maintenance-free community with a heated pool, new outdoor furnishings, lush landscaping and easy access to Shell Beach, Siesta Key Village, the main Siesta Key Beach and the North Bridge to get to the mainland in minutes. Community fees include wind and flood insurance, landscaping, dock and pool maintenance, and weekly trash and recycling pickup. With recent upgrades, private dockage and gated peace-of-mind—all in a prime north Siesta Key location—this is island living at its best.
