An extraordinary Gulf-front estate where timeless architecture meets the tranquility of island living. Located on exclusive Manasota Key, this classically designed residence offers 138 feet of pristine private beach frontage and deeded access to a private cove on the Intracoastal Waterway—ideal for building a dock, adding a boat lift, or simply enjoying waterfront serenity from both shorelines. Set on a rare .71-acre Gulf-front estate, this elegant home spans over 3,000 square feet of meticulously curated living space. Each room is thoughtfully designed to frame breathtaking, panoramic views of the Gulf, creating a seamless blend between indoor refinement and the natural beauty of coastal Florida. The home was reimagined in 2000, with many changes made to the original structure- a testament to these changes can be seen in the level of detail and craftsmanship now in the home. From the expansive living room with travertine floors that add warmth and understated luxury. and formal dining space to the gourmet kitchen, every corner reflects a commitment to sophistication and comfort. The upper-level Master Suite is a private sanctuary, capturing golden morning light over the Intracoastal and offering unmatched privacy and scale. For the discriminating buyer, this amazing home sits high on a sand dune and had no water intrusion from hurricanes. Step outside to enjoy moonlit swims in your private pool, the soft whisper of waves as your soundtrack, and front-row seats to Manasota Key’s world-famous sunsets. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Coastal, captivating, and completely yours.
