If you relish privacy and lush landscaping in a waterfront setting, this walled courtyard home on the desirable north end of Siesta Key on Bayou Louise offers it all. You can walk to Shell Beach on the Gulf of Mexico from this beautifully-updated 3-bedroom/3-bath home, swim in its picturesque pool, or board your boat at the dock with direct access to Sarasota Bay. Entering a front gate, water splashing into the reflecting pool sets a prevailing peaceful mood. Inside the front door, you will view the pool and spa from a large living room. Throughout the home, double French doors open to the gardens. A split floor plan affords owners and guests privacy with spectacular views from every room. From the master suite, a private deck awaits you outside the spa-like bathroom. Recent remodeling updates include the kitchen with granite counters, large island, and double ovens in 2015; a chic bathroom in 2017; and the lanai with stainless steel sink and refrigerator in 2018. A 2-car attached garage (new garage door in 2018) with a mega-storage closet offers ample storage as does an accessory building attached to the property. Bayou Louise leads directly into Sarasota Bay in minutes with only one bridge. You don’t want to miss this one-of-a-kind home that evokes Old Florida in a tranquil topical setting.
