About This Home
Sandy Hook stands as a rare fusion of history, architecture, and coastal living. Sandy Hook is Siesta Key’s Premier Gulfside Community. Just north and west of Siesta Village, Sandy Hook is more than a neighborhood—it’s a legacy. Widely regarded as one of the most prestigious, desirable, and coveted communities on Siesta Key, it sits on a stretch of coastline where Gulf breezes carry stories of visionaries and architects who defined modern Florida living.
Sandy Hook, with it’s private entrance, features a private beach, the epitome of the ultimate island lifestyle. This oversized Southern Exposure Lot of 38,435 square feet lagoon-front lot offers endless possibilities—reimagine and remodel the existing home or tear down and build your dream island retreat with Gulf and beach views. With direct frontage on the lagoon, you can design your own dock or kayak launch for seamless access to the water. Though the home was impacted during the storm, the opportunity here is extraordinary: remodel what’s here or start fresh on this rare parcel in one of the most coveted locations on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Sandy Hook offers not just a property, but a lifestyle—private beach, architectural pedigree, and island living at its very best.
The location is simply unbeatable. Tucked away in Sandy Hook’s private enclave with its own white-sand beach, you’re just 0.5 miles to Siesta Key Village, where hip and funky boutiques mingle with high-end shops like Lilly Pulitzer and Tommy Bahama. Grab groceries at Morton’s Gourmet Market, a treat from Kilwins Ice Cream, or fill up at the island’s own Circle K gas station—proof that you never have to leave the Key.
When you do venture out, world-famous Siesta Beach/Crescent Beach is only 1.6 miles away. You’re also just 4.8 miles to Sarasota Memorial Hospital, 6 miles to downtown Sarasota, 10 miles to SRQ International Airport, and 14 miles to UTC Mall.
The appeal of Sandy Hook extends beyond lifestyle—this enclave is steeped in mid-century modern heritage, shaped by pioneering architects whose influence still defines the community today.
For those who appreciate mid-century modern design, it’s nothing short of a pilgrimage—an opportunity to own a piece of one of America’s most architecturally distinguished seaside neighborhoods.
A Rare Mid-Century Modern Treasure, Sandy Hook is not just a neighborhood—it’s a living museum of design. Established in the early 1950s by pioneering female architect Mary Rockwell Hook, the community was envisioned as an “incubator for innovative architects.” It became the canvas for the Sarasota School of Architecture, a mid-century modern movement celebrated around the globe.
