Welcome to your personal island paradise on Siesta Key! This stunning 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with a 2-car garage and office is the epitome of beach and boating bliss. Just a short walk from the world-renowned Siesta Key Beach, famous for its powdery white quartz sand and dazzling azure waters, this 2,527 square-foot gem sits on the grand canal, offering deep boating water and a front-row seat to spectacular, colorful sunsets every evening. Step inside to an open, light-filled floor plan that has been lovingly expanded and renovated. A new 2024 roof new gutters, 2021 & 2017 HVACs, a new second 200-amp electrical panel, a new 100-amp sub-panel, 50-amp EV charging outlet, new tankless water heater, new pool pump & heater, hurricane impact sliders, with plumbing hydrojetted, descaled & lined in 2023, provides peace of mind & affordable insurance for decades to come. The entire interior has been freshly painted, including the trim and ceilings, with new door hardware and modern touches. The bamboo floors in the bedrooms have been refinished, creating a warm & inviting atmosphere throughout. The heart of this home is the gourmet kitchen, a masterpiece of high-end design and functionality. Custom-built cabinetry with a sleek melamine finish, including a coffee station and appliance garage, all feature push-to-open mechanisms.
