Surrounded by lush tropical gardens and panoramic bay views, every aspect of the property has been conceived to deliver an unparalleled waterfront lifestyle. A dual-gated arrival along a Tabby seashell drive leads to a stately façade framed by towering palms and a grand porte cochère. Beyond solid mahogany doors, a magnificent foyer welcomes guests with travertine floors inlaid with cabochon stone and a sweeping staircase featuring hand-crafted Chippendale railings. Walls of impact glass dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, filling the residence with natural light and uninterrupted views of Sarasota Bay. Refined details include a natural gas fireplace with imported limestone hearth, hand-crafted Vitali European oak flooring in a warm Milano finish, custom millwork, and a serene palette of coastal hues.
