8605 Great Meadow Dr., Sarasota, FL 34238

Designer waterfront home in gated Palmer Ranch community of Turtle Rock. This contemporary, fully remodeled home designed by JKL Design Group (Kurt Lucas) is centered privately on the largest lake in Sarasota with commanding views within minutes of both the world-famous beaches of Siesta Key and the cultural amenities of downtown Sarasota. Luxurious finishes throughout include Dornbracht, Kohler Loure, Serena & Lilly, Kuzco Lighting and Barclay Butera. The kitchen, renovated in 2022, features a stunning full-height chevron backsplash and professional KitchenAid appliances with induction cooking, dual ovens, a pro-depth stainless steel sink and reverse osmosis filtration. The large diamond white quartz peninsula with countertop seating overlooks a massive great room with tray ceiling, recessed lights and elegant built-in shelves. Adjacent to the great room is a spacious dining room with designer pendant lighting and room enough to seat eight. Expansive wall-to-wall sliders open the great room and kitchen to an exquisite covered lanai with additional dining space and a designer pool that is larger than typical for the Turtle Rock community. Contemporary spa baths were fully remodeled in 2022, with 36x36 tile and mosaic features, LED-lit anti-fog mirrors and one-piece modern commodes. In the master bath, a free-standing tub with filler faucet and separate frameless shower enhance the suite’s resort-style luxury. The master bedroom opens directly onto the terrace and is situated on the opposite side of the home from guest suites for optimal privacy. Two guest suites offer luxurious hospitality and flexible remote working space. Additional amenities include a breakfast nook overlooking the lanai, separate laundry room with quartz countertops and utility sink, newly coated flooring in the covered garage, high-efficiency HVAC (2022) and newly installed hard-wired five-point surround sound system. The designer aesthetic is just as striking from the home’s exterior. An arched portico leads to a stately double-door entrance surrounded by lush foliage. Professional landscape lighting showcases the established garden of bromeliads, white and orange birds of paradise, hibiscus, shrubs and abundant tropical blooms. A 15-year warranty is attached to the 2022 exterior repainting (Duration by Sherwin-Williams). A new grey roof valued at $38K is under contract to replace the existing roof, with completion estimated July-August 2022. New pool equipment and heater in 2022. The Legacy Trail, prime shopping amenities and highly-rated schools are within minutes of this designer, newly renovated Lee Wetherington home. All possible maintenance items have been addressed in this pristine turnkey property and is available furnished on a separate bill of sale.
