Overview

Experience serene waterfront living in this custom residence on Bird Key, one of Sarasota’s most prestigious island communities. This exceptional property presents a rare opportunity to own a private slice of paradise, offering sweeping bay views, refined coastal design, and an extraordinary lifestyle at an outstanding value. Designed for both comfort and entertaining, the home features three spacious en-suite bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite that serves as a tranquil retreat. Wake each morning to panoramic water views, unwind in a spa-inspired hydra-jet soaking tub framed by bay windows, and enjoy dual walk-in closets, dual vanities, and a separate glass-enclosed shower. Rich oak floors, a welcoming fireplace, and custom cherry-wood cabinetry add warmth and sophistication throughout the open-concept living spaces. Double glass doors lead to an expansive lanai, perfect for sunrise coffee or sunset cocktails beside the free-form pool. The generous patio offers multiple seating areas, while a private dock with a 16,000-lb. lift invites effortless boating, kayaking, and fishing adventures. From your backyard, watch dolphins and manatees glide by, with the Gulf of Mexico just a short ride away. The chef’s kitchen is equally impressive, appointed with premium appliances, a six-burner Dacor gas range with dual ovens, rich cherry cabinetry, a central island, and a Sub-Zero wine refrigerator—ideal for hosting unforgettable gatherings. Outside, a circular paver driveway, mature tropical landscaping, and stately Royal Palms create a grand first impression. Positioned on a spacious, protected boat basin with coveted western exposure, the home captures Sarasota’s legendary sunsets in spectacular fashion. Located just two miles from downtown Sarasota’s vibrant arts scene, fine dining, and boutique shopping, the property also offers close proximity to St. Armands Circle and the pristine shores of Lido Beach—placing world-class shopping, dining, and white-sand beaches within easy reach. This is waterfront living at its finest—where elegance, comfort, and coastal beauty meet.
