4510 125th St., Cortez, FL 34215

Old Florida Beauty sitting on just under an acre on Sarasota Bay with the most spectacular natural surroundings you will ever find. The lush landscaping includes over fifty palms and multiple Gumbo Limbo trees. Located in one of the oldest fishing villages on the west coast of Florida, Cortez, this estate is one of a kind. Designed by architect Jack West and renowned builder Brent Whitehead. This stunning house and its accompanying three bedroom guest house represents the best life has to offer. Custom features such as heated bathroom floors, a climate controlled butlers' pantry, a soaring stone fireplace, and custom built-ins abound in the main house. Th entire home is surrounded by a continuous balcony complete with outdoor seating --to dine al fresco while enjoying the sunset-- leading into the adjacent guest house. There is a widows' walk for viewing the entirety of the intercostal and Anna Maria Island. For added enjoyment, enjoy the heated pool with views of Sarasota Bay, a dock with 10,000 lb boat lift and dual jet ski lift. There is plenty of space for all your watercraft, storage, and a private beach to launch your kayaks and paddle boards. There is a large, screened room complete with pool tables and games. The home was painted a little over two years ago, and a whole new house generator has been installed. Take a stroll through the Village of Cortez or walk over the bridge to Anna Maria Island. This gorgeous property is a perfect getaway.
