A uniquely enchanting setting for private living and entertaining on Siesta Key. This grand courtyard pool home with a guesthouse and deeded beach access will soon become your haven for peaceful relaxation. Custom-built by Lee Wetherington, the iron-gated entry sets the tone for the entire residence, classic elegance blended with casual beach living. This superb home transitions effortlessly from the 2600-square-feet of open-air courtyard to the interior flooding with natural light through multiple sliding glass doors and windows. The main house offers three bedrooms, two-and-a-half-baths, plus a one-bedroom and one-bath guesthouse. The open floorplan overlooks the courtyard and features a centrally located island kitchen with a natural gas range, dual sinks, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar, planning desk, generous counter space and storage for preparing fabulous meals. The floorplan flows easily into the breakfast room and great room, anchored by a fireplace and an intimate dining room for memorable meals. Two guest bedrooms, full bath, half-bath (doubles as the pool bath) and full laundry room complete the main floor. Halfway up the staircase is the landing and entry to the expansive master suite that features a luxurious master bath and balcony overlooking the pool and courtyard. A separate guesthouse with a private entrance, full bath, partial kitchen and separate garage for overnight guests is across the private courtyard, offering an idyllic spot for sunning, swimming and wonderful alfresco dining. Additional highlights include a heated pool and spa, outdoor shower, pool bath entry, circular paver driveway and a split three-car garage. A nearby bayfront marina will delight boaters with quick water access to Sarasota Bay, the community's deeded beach access on the neighborhood's Gulf side allows easy access to watch Siesta Key’s colorful sunsets each evening over the Gulf of Mexico. Nearby, Turtle Beach offers public boat ramps for boating, paddleboarding and kayaking. Enjoy the shops and restaurants of South Siesta Village, or over the Stickney Point Bridge with easy access to mainland Sarasota’s many amenities just minutes away.
