Property Description
Now the lowest priced single-family home in Sara Sands, this is your opportunity to take this blank canvas and create your masterpiece. With canal frontage, a boat dock with a lift, heated pool & spa, a two-car garage, and solar panels this home offers a third of an acre at a prime location on Siesta Key. This home sustained storm damage during Hurricane Helene in September 2024 and has had appropriate mitigation completed. With a Spanish colonial inspired elevation, this home did not sustain damage to its curb appeal. On your approach, a circular paver driveway and charming front porch framed by natural wood elements and landscaping beds once plentiful with lush vegetation create stunning curb appeal. Step inside to a sprawling living space with a seamless flow from dining space through to the gorgeous kitchen. A beautiful fireplace once flanked by substantial built ins lends a warmth to the space while multiple sets of classic French doors allow for bright, Florida sunshine to flood the room. With a little help, the kitchen will be a chef’s dream again as the current layout features dual tone cabinets, attractive countertops and a show stopping island with seating for 5-6. With a wall of pantry cabinets, coffee bar and additional cocktail bar, there is no shortage of storage or possibilities! Each bedroom is exceptionally generous, but the primary suite is simply divine with a large footprint, dual walk-in closets and an ensuite bath will exude luxury in size and your chosen finishes. Step outside to your outdoor oasis featuring a paver pathway that connects multiple patios but ultimately leads you back to the stunning views of the canal. A golf cart ride, bike ride or leisurely walk will have you exploring the heart of Siesta Key’s village with eateries, shops, dessert shops and of course access to the beach with views of the sparkling waters of the Gulf. With some creativity and a bit of effort, this home be better than ever as your beautiful homestead for year round residency or seasonal Siesta Key dwelling!
