Set on 1.34 waterfront acres in one of Sarasota’s most extraordinary settings, 4196 Roberts Point Circle presents a rare opportunity to own a private residential compound surrounded by water, mature tropical vegetation and sweeping views across Sarasota Bay. With over 400 feet of waterfront and an exceptional sense of privacy, the property offers a setting that is increasingly difficult to replicate on Siesta Key or anywhere in the Sarasota area. For a buyer drawn to architecture with history and individuality, the existing compound offers an opportunity for renovation and transformation. For those envisioning something entirely new, the acreage and waterfront position provide an exceptional canvas for creating a landmark Sarasota estate. The property also has the potential to be divided into multiple parcels and redeveloped as incredible bayfront homes. Most compelling is the location on the coveted north end of Siesta Key, an area prized for its privacy, larger properties and peaceful residential character while remaining close to everything that makes the island so desirable. The structures encompass approximately 8,500 square feet of living space with six bedrooms and eight baths. Distinctive architecture, extensive use of natural wood, vaulted and beamed ceilings, expansive walls of glass and wraparound outdoor living areas give the residence a character entirely its own. The main residence features generous gathering spaces framed by windows and French doors, warm wood flooring, a dramatic open staircase, and an expansive primary suite with vaulted ceilings. Multiple living and entertaining areas provide flexibility for reimagining the interiors while preserving the property’s architectural personality. The guest house is perfect for guests, extended family, private offices, studios, or multigenerational living. Outdoors, the expansive grounds unfold toward the shoreline with a swimming pool, mature landscaping and multiple docking options providing direct access to the water. From the shoreline and elevated living spaces, broad views stretch across Roberts Bay to the mainland while the scale of the 1.34-acre parcel creates a remarkable sense of openness and seclusion. Siesta Key is celebrated for its laid-back coastal lifestyle, vibrant Siesta Key Village and extraordinary beaches, including Siesta Beach, renowned for its powdery white quartz sand and previously named the No. 1 beach in the United States by Tripadvisor. From this private waterfront retreat, downtown Sarasota’s dining, shopping, and cultural attractions are also just minutes away, creating an exceptional combination of island seclusion and mainland convenience. This is a rare opportunity without compare on the Gulf Coast.
