This private, walled architectural sanctuary was designed in authentic Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian style by architect Joe McClung (1961) with multiple terraces, two fireplaces, five bedrooms, two dens and a built-in office. Lush tropical grounds begin with a narrow entrance at the street, through a circular drive featuring spectacular oaks, to a striking, significant mid-century home unlike any other on the Gulf Coast of Florida. This unique and beautiful home has a gated courtyard entry with formal koi pond, a four-car carport, a safe room or bomb shelter and handball court. You can kayak or canoe from Allen's Creek at the end of your street to the bay or Gulf of Mexico. Horses are permitted, as is your RV or boat; there are no deed restrictions. An elite K-8 private school is nearby. The entrance to this fine property can easily be gated. This architectural gem is perfect for those who want privacy, yet want to be close-in, near beaches and downtown, with access to airports. Survey and floor plans are available for your kind review. Qualified buyers only, please. The home is being sold as is.
