224 Bird Key Dr., Sarasota, FL 34236

Outstanding opportunity to live on 100’ of prime boating water in Bird Key, Sarasota’s premier downtown waterfront community. The private, gated entry at the end of a brick paver driveway leads through a gorgeous glass door to the open living area with immediate water vistas. This sprawling 4,000-sq.-ft., two-story, 4BR, 4BA home has abundant natural light, soaring 10’ ceilings, stately crown and chair rail molding, marble and wood floors, and a host of fine appointments greet you at every turn. Ideal for entertaining, the gourmet kitchen is adorned with top-quality Jenn-Air and Maytag appliances, granite counters, rich wood cabinetry, a breakfast bar and French doors to an open-concept serving area. Two well-sized guest bedrooms plus an exercise are located on the ground level. Take an ornate wood staircase to the serene 2nd story master suite, boasting a generous walk-in closet, water views and master bath with a glass-enclosed shower, soaking tub and French porcelain countertops. Grand outdoor living begins in the 2-story screened, paver-stoned lanai with pool and spa, and continues to ample areas for rest and relaxation under the covered, screened patio. Savor evening cocktails and dinners on the expansive dock, large enough for soirees next to your boat and jet ski lift, and enhanced by long, wide views of Sarasota Bay and the stunning sunsets beyond. This exceptional Bird Key property is just moments from the shopping and dining of St. Armands Circle and the excitement of Sarasota’s Main Street.
