Description

3 bed, 2 bath canal front home just steps from the world renowned Siesta Key Beach. This home checks all the boxes. For starters, it’s on an island within an island! That means the cul de sac Siesta Isles location is quite peaceful, yet it is less than an 8-minute walk to the main pavilion on the white, powdery sands of Siesta Beach. It’s an oversized lot with a “paver” circle drive and extra-large garage providing room for guests, vehicles, and toys. But the 10,000 lbs. boat lift on your private sea wall out back is where the boat will be! Inside, you’ll find engineered hardwood floors throughout the open plan which has a split bedroom arrangement. There are pool and water views from almost every room. The kitchen has been updated with quartz counters and a stainless GE Café Series appliance package, all but the Bosch dishwasher, that is. The “owners suite” has an updated bath with a step-in shower. Sliding doors and views out to the lanai and water beyond might make it hard to ever leave this refuge. The two additional bedrooms share a bath and function well for family, guests, or home workspace. Other features include impact, insulated windows and a comfortable interior laundry. The garage, with an 18-foot wide, hurricane rated door has a workshop, but the real hobby area is the 10 x 23 outdoor “garden center”, perfect for raising orchids or other “green thumb” activities. Or it could be a convenient place to store kayaks and paddle boards which are easy to launch with a swim ladder in place adjacent to the boat dock. Living on Siesta often entails an outdoor lifestyle, and this property provides one! The home opens almost entirely to the vaulted lanai, pool and rear porch which includes ample covered area to take a break from the sun or enjoy summer rain showers. There are also two additional decks in the yard providing multiple places to entertain and enjoy the views over the wide canal. The seawall was replaced in 2017 and a boat lift makes this a special place for boaters and “would be” boaters. A deep well is used for irrigation and the property is beautifully landscaped and fully fenced. This is a “move in ready” opportunity in a very convenient location near world class natural amenities and all Sarasota has to offer.
