Many have commented that this is the most beautiful home they have ever viewed in Sarasota. Tucked between Harbor Acres & downtown Sarasota in one of Sarasota's most exclusive locations. Deep water harborage & exquisite views of Bay & city skyline are framed by the untouched splendor of Selby Gardens & the iconic Ringling Bridge. A Tuscan inspired tone where no expense was spared, elegant columns flank the grand rib vaulted walkway where soaring ceilings & a wall of French doors showcase unforgettable views. Exotic woods & hand painted ceiling detail headline the superlatives. The kitchen features a stylish circular breakfast alcove, hand crafted walnut cabinetry, honed granite counters, Wolf Professional Range, Miele cappuccino center, an antique butcher's block, & full butler's kitchen. A formal dining room with handsome wine display & 2 story office with leather floors & private library are featured. The master suite overlooking the bay is luxurious, with 2 large walk-in closets, a kitchenette & spa-like bath. 3 elegant guest suites, a gathering room with kitchenette & a theatre are located on the 2nd level. The lushly landscaped gated grounds include a gorgeous 2nd story waterside gazebo with fireplace, a bay front patio with infinity lap pool, spa & stunning rooftop terrace.
