Description

Just three homes in from the open waters of Little Sarasota Bay, this beautifully updated waterfront residence in Southpointe Shores offers a rare combination of location, scale, and immediate livability. Positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac with nearly 100 feet of Intracoastal frontage, the property captures wide water views and direct boating access in one of Sarasota's most desirable neighborhoods. Spanning more than 4,500 square feet across two levels, the home is designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. An open layout defines the main level, where wood-grain tile flooring connects the primary living spaces and walls of pocketing sliding glass doors open fully to the outdoor living areas-creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. The recently reimagined pool deck serves as the centerpiece of the home's outdoor setting, featuring a covered lounge area, summer kitchen with built-in grill, and a resort-style heated pool and spa with sun shelf and waterfall features. The expansive patio overlooks peaceful waters, offering a dynamic waterfront backdrop from morning through sunset.Inside, the chef's kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with custom contemporary cabinetry, quartz countertops, high-end appliances-including a built-in Miele coffee station-center island with breakfast bar, and a full-sized wine cooler. The adjacent family room offers vaulted ceilings, water views, and a well-appointed wet bar with built-in shelving, creating a natural gathering space.Two guest suites with updated en-suite baths are located on the main level, along with a dedicated laundry room. The second floor is reserved for privacy, featuring an expansive primary suite with sweeping water views, fireplace, custom walk-in closet, and a marble en-suite bath. A study and additional bedroom on this level provide flexibility for a home office, fitness space, or nursery.Recent upgrades enhance both comfort and peace of mind, including impact windows and sliding glass doors (2020), a new seawall (2019), tile roof (2016), updated electrical wiring, modernized baths, and newer HVAC and water heater systems.Set on an oversized waterfront homesite with direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway, this boater's sanctuary includes a newer private dock with 27,000-pound lift, accommodating a variety of boating needs. Southpointe Shores is a quiet, tucked-away waterfront community known for its proximity to Sarasota's best coastal destinations. Siesta Key Beach and Crescent Beach are just minutes away, along with marinas, parks, and everyday conveniences. Downtown Sarasota's cultural attractions-including The Bay Park, Selby Gardens, the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, galleries, and dining-are easily accessible, offering a lifestyle that balances privacy with connectivity.
