Description of Property

Comfortable luxury living on 1+ acre with a spectacular panoramic water view. Look at all you get with an incredible daily sunset. This is a completely unique offering comprised of two separate parcels. Identified as the main home and guest house this property is suitable for multi-generational living in an unmatched setting on the mainland shore of Sarasota Bay. Beautifully kept grounds accented by Royal palms create the feel of a family compound that elegantly states, "You've made it!" The three story main house has a twin grand winding staircase and an elevator to the second floor main level. Tall ceilings and massive impact glass windows and doors provide an absolutely breathtaking view of the swimming pool and the Sarasota Bay. Built on 38 concrete and steel reinforced pilings, the main house was constructed in 2001 and the windows and doors were upgraded to hurricane standards.
