A sumptuous expression of island living, this grand Manasota Key estate rests upon almost an acre of tropical grounds, with views of Lemon Bay that will take your breath away. Regal palms set the tone for a host of exquisite interiors, beginning with rich mahogany doors that open to the foyer, and unfolding to the great room with wood floors, faux painting, tray ceilings, crown molding and French doors leading to the pool terrace. Savor cooking from the deluxe gourmet kitchen with breakfast bar, and treat guests to your favorite vintage plucked from the separate, climate controlled wine cellar. Entertaining is also beautifully accommodated by the formal dining room overlooking the Bay. Feel inspired by water views from your private office, with custom woodwork creating a nautical ambiance. When it’s time to rest, hop into your private elevator to the master level; where you will find a magnificently appointed owner’s retreat. On the main level, two en-suite bedrooms provide further space for relaxation, while guests will be comfortable in the private, two-bedroom guest house. The outdoor living area is quite simply an oasis of tranquility, with an awe-inspiring terrace setting the stage for a sparkling pool, heated spa, and a covered gazebo with luxurious summer kitchen and bar area. Fishing and boating enthusiasts will love the new 10,000lb boat lift with dock which accommodates two vessels, as well as a fabulous pier for reeling in the catch of the day.
