This unique, light-filled artist's home is a rare Sarasota modern contemporary (1977) designed by Architect Tom Bertram, whose work was inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. This two-bedroom, two-bath split-plan gem features soaring ceilings, clerestory windows and a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that celebrates Florida living. Behind a tranquil, walled front courtyard, the home opens into a dramatic living room with 12-foot ceilings and deep clerestory windows, providing natural light from all sides. The open layout continues into a dining area, breakfast bar and a cheerful kitchen with original bold orange countertops, retro in the best way. A spacious bonus room, ideal for a studio, TV room or office, leads to a back patio and expansive fenced yard. The bedrooms are privately positioned with the primary suite at the rear and the guest bedroom and second bath toward the front. Both offer walk-in closets and abundant natural light. The primary bath offers a serene retreat, with angled windows, a deep soaking tub and a Roman-style shower for unwinding in peaceful privacy. Set on an oversized 10,520-square-foot lot, uncommon for the neighborhood, this property comes with its own well and offers ample room to expand the home and bring your vision to life with outdoor features like a pool, artist studio or lush garden. Ideal location! Next to Riverview High School and just 10 minutes from Siesta Key beaches, downtown farmers markets, the Legacy Bike Trail, Sarasota Art Museum and a host of terrific Sarasota restaurants and shopping. Recent updates include roof (2022), air conditioner (2020), water heater (2022), washer (2024, and custom blinds (2022). This property is not in a flood zone and does not require flood insurance. Note: Artists who lived and created here include writer/sculptor Evelyn and painter/sculptor Ben Wilson, whose work is represented in the Smithsonian Archives of American Art. With a thoughtful refresh, this is your chance to own a Sarasota treasure, equal parts architectural icon and inspiring creative living space, with room to grow.
