It's all about location...with a beach path directly across the street, leading directly to Lido Beach, just one block away. St. Armands shops and fine dining are literally around the corner. Join the Ritz Carlton Beach Club and enjoy yoga on the beach a few blocks away. This custom Mediterranean designed residence is tucked away behind wrought iron gates for privacy on a wide boating canal. Casually elegant, this "beach house" residence offers options for every lifestyle, whether full time or part time. A most flexible floor plan offers a variety of living space. The large dining room overlooks the pool and waterfront. And, there is a dedicated grand piano space, as well. Enjoy alfresco dining in several locations on the tiered poolside deck. A prior renovation enhanced the cook's kitchen by adding a full catering style kitchen space, perfect for all levels of entertaining and family gatherings. Grand 12 ft. ceilings accentuate the open living space. The Master suite is an inviting owner's retreat...a perfect respite, opening to pool and spa terrace. The second floor guest wing and loft/bonus room are up and away, with private stairs to exit, if desired. For water enthusiasts, a boat lift and large dock provide the perfect launch for a day on the water. Kayaking is right out your back door, with frequent Manatee sightings in the canal. This Lido Beach residence is a permanent vacation!
