About This Home

As of January 2024

Stunning, Ralph Twitchell architectural masterpiece! Designed and built in 1941, this mid-century modern jewel was renewed and expanded in 2009, adhering to the original vision and aesthetics, while adding the conveniences of modern amenities. Located in the iconic Indian Beach neighborhood on Sarasota Bay, steps to the water for kayaking and sunsets, 904 Virginia is perched up high and outside of flood zone. The 3-bedroom residence blends contemporary and mid-century finishes harmoniously with walls of windows framing the surrounding Selby-like garden. 12 ft volume ceilings add to the spacious and open feel, with a kitchen/great room overlooking the magnificent pool and waterfall with marble deck surround. The kitchen features Caesarstone counters, gas cooktop, and large breakfast bar. The primary bedroom has dramatic views of the pool and gardens, and features a large, ensuite bath and walk-in closet. Other upgrades and features include a 2021 HVAC, alarm system, commercial grade sliders and doors, custom European LED lighting, concrete floors throughout, power window shades in the great room, energy efficient on demand water heater, a whole house water filtration system, extra storage room off 2nd bedroom, landscape lighting and irrigation. In the heart of Sarasota's cultural district, the location provides easy access to Downtown shopping, theater, and dining, St. Armands Circle, Lido and Longboat Keys, and the University corridor with shopping, dining, and I75. This is a unique and special opportunity to own and reside in a true Sarasota School of Architecture, important home.
