If ever there was a house that personified Old Florida style, this is it. The contemporary architecture with tabby shell exterior, the abundant porches, balconies, and sun rooms, and the richly-landscaped waterfront lot provide the best of coastal living. The ground floor, accessed from the garage, features a large Florida room, a generously-sized ensuite, and a wet bar with seating area. The main floor, with open entry hall and cool stone floors, provides spectacular views of the water. The expansive great room and the kitchen open to a long balcony, while the den connects to an enclosed porch that is currently used as an office. What better place to return emails and take conference calls than a sun-filled space overlooking the bay? The third floor contains the master suite and two additional bedrooms, all of which have balcony access. The master has an additional private balcony that connects to both the bedroom and the bathroom. The large dock is worry-free composite, has built-in bench seating, and has a lower level perfect for launching a canoe, paddle board, or kayak. Tucked in a quiet street off Bayshore, this home awaits discovery and promises delight. Architecture by Sol Fleischman.
