Inside, soaring cathedral ceilings, impact-rated windows and doors, sophisticated smart home conveniences, designer lighting and 32”x32” Maxxi tile flooring establishes the home’s clean contemporary aesthetic. A dramatic glass-railed staircase provides a striking focal point, while solid-core interior doors with concealed hinges and a shaft designed for a future elevator reflect the attention given to both form and function. The open living and dining areas center around a sleek fireplace and custom built-in wine bar, while a glass-walled office creates a private workspace without interrupting the home’s open flow. The gourmet kitchen impresses with 3cm quartz countertops with waterfall edge, custom Mouser cabinetry, full-height quartz backsplash, floating shelves, pot filler, Kohler fixtures and an oversized island with seating. Premium appliances include a Wolf 6-burner range with griddle, Wolf microwave, Sub-Zero wine and beverage refrigeration, Cove dishwasher and dedicated icemaker.

Upstairs, DuChateau engineered European oak flooring brings warmth to the home's contemporary palette. An open loft-style family room creates a second gathering space and extends to its own balcony, while additional bedroom suites offer privacy for family and guests. One is particularly generous in scale—large enough to function as a second primary suite—and opens to a private balcony. Glass railings and porcelain tile continue the architectural vocabulary outdoors, while the open upper level overlooks the dramatic spaces below. Outdoor living takes center stage with an expansive porcelain-tiled patio, covered lounge and dining areas and summer kitchen with built-in natural gas grill. The heated pool features a sun shelf and fountain, accompanied by a heated spa and private tropical surroundings. Ideally positioned near Southside Village, Arlington Park and Sarasota Memorial Hospital, the home is also minutes from Downtown Sarasota, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, Bayfront Park and Marina Jack, with Siesta Key, Lido Key and St. Armands Circle within easy reach.
