Located “West of Trail,” in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Sarasota, this amazing residence is idyllically positioned on a large lot to deliver privacy and serene water views. A long front porch highlighted by a gazebo welcomes guests and sets the stage for this thoughtfully designed custom home. Understated elegance resonates through the use of fine finishes and detailed millwork highlighted by engineered hickory wood floors, unique ceiling appointments, custom cabinetry, and granite countertops. The great room with its two-story ceiling, a large bank of French doors, and a stacked stone and glass fireplace is central to the home and is bordered by the kitchen and dining room. Designed for entertaining and family gatherings, the eat-in kitchen boasts abundant natural light, stainless steel appliances, and a bar area with access to the large formal dining room. The main level owner’s suite is a private retreat while the upper level offers three beautifully designed guest suites and a second office. The unique family living space features its own full bathroom and private staircase to the main level and can be used as a fifth bedroom, game room, workout room, private office space, or anything else you can imagine. Finishing out the interior spaces is a study and a large laundry room both located on the main living level. A heated saltwater swimming pool, spa, multiple outdoor seating areas, large back yard, one attached two-car garage, and a second attached two-car garage via a breezeway provide plenty of recreation and utility space. All this in an amazing “west of trail” location near The Field Club, Siesta Key, Southside Village, and Downtown Sarasota.
