This home offers the ideal blend of luxury, privacy, and convenience on a tranquil street on Siesta Key's coveted north end. Just minutes from everything on and off the island, this residence is poised on a deep sailboat water bayou just off Sarasota Bay and the Intracoastal Waterway. Enjoy a quick boat ride through Big Pass to the Gulf of Mexico, making it a haven for boating enthusiasts. The heart of this magnificent property is the great room, offering tranquil water views and a full balcony through French doors. This stunning space features soaring 20 foot beamed ceilings surrounded by a two story library. A breathtaking gallery and loft overlook the dining area, complemented by custom hand hewn wood trestles and iron railings from Tampa's renowned Vasquez Forge. Adding a touch of enchantment, a hidden wood paneled staircase awaits discovery. The gourmand's kitchen boasts top of the line Wolf, Sub Zero, and Miele appliances, exquisite quartzite countertops, a coffered ceiling, a spacious waterfront breakfast area, and a functional walk in pantry. Hand hewn beams incorporated throughout the house and lanai enhance the seamless blend of old world charm.

Boating and fishing enthusiasts will relish the property's three exceptional boat lifts: a 10,000 pound lift, a davit lift, and a two post lift, ideal for a small boat, kayak, or jet ski with docking space for a vessel up to 45 feet.
