Description of Property
This exceptional 1-acre bayfront estate offers “Old Florida” charm with panoramic water views of Paradise Bay with direct access to Sarasota Bay and no fixed bridges to the Gulf. The winding drive, lined with majestic royal palms, welcomes you to a tropical haven, complete with beautifully landscaped grounds kept lush with a well irrigation system. Relish the natural beauty of palms, fruit trees, bamboo, a magnificent magnolia, and vibrant tree fern that surround this tranquil retreat. The coastal contemporary designed home boasts three spacious living levels, each with outdoor decks to take in breathtaking views. The ground level features an oversized garage, additional covered parking, storage space, and a concrete parking pad perfect for RV or boat storage. A grandfathered one bedroom, one bath in-law apartment with kitchenette offers privacy and comfort, along with a stair lift to access the second level. The second level offers a large living and dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, bonus room with built-in cabinets and sink, two bedrooms and guest bath with antique claw foot tub. The kitchen has brass ceiling tiles, plentiful cabinet storage, granite countertops and a breakfast bar island with water views. A built-in saltwater aquarium framed in keystone adds a unique touch to the living room, while the adjoining dining room showcases a beautiful keystone-covered gas fireplace. Gorgeous tongue-and-groove hardwood flooring, combining cherry, red oak, white oak, maple, and walnut, creates warmth and elegance throughout. Vaulted ceilings with clerestory windows fill the space with natural light and highlight the home’s dramatic design. A spiral staircase with solid brass railing leads to the third level, where you'll find the spacious primary suite—complete with its own private balcony offering spectacular waterfront views. The ensuite bath features dual sinks, a separate shower, and a WC. The property boasts 100 feet of pristine waterfront, with a concrete seawall, boat davits, power/water, and a fish cleaning station. The natural mangrove barrier provides protection for the canal, and the location provides easy access for boating, fishing and watching dolphins, manatees, and a variety of birds, including the nearby osprey nest, from the comfort of your own backyard. Located just minutes from the beautiful beaches of Anna Maria Island and the charming Cortez Fishing Village, this estate is convenient to top-tier seafood restaurants and waterfront dining options.
