Nestled on an oversized waterfront homesite of nearly 17,000 sq. ft., this quality-built, elevated coastal oasis is "natural Florida" at its best. As you approach the architecturally designed home, a tree-lined drive and lush landscaping set the stage for the island lifestyle that awaits. The private setting, the deep-covered terraces, and generous windows beautifully capture the essence of a welcoming hideaway. Awash in natural light cascading from soaring ceilings, the open flowing plan, and the seamless integration of the indoor spaces with 1200 sq. ft. of decks, provides a harmonious sanctuary for relaxation or social gatherings. The living room and dining room flow to an inviting deck that wraps the home's west and south elevations, and offers picturesque views and access to the large secluded backyard, the Brazilian Ipe boat dock with a 10,000 lb. lift, and the natural shoreline below. At the heart of the home, the bright, open kitchen prioritizes both function and aesthetics. Generous cabinetry and workspace, a coffee corner, a dining bar, Caesarstone countertops and backsplashes, a single-bowl stainless sink, gas cooking, and direct access to the kitchen terrace for your grill and pizza oven make it a chef’s delight. The ultimate owners' retreat encompasses the entire top level of the home and is accented by a cozy terrace with panoramic bayou and peek-a-boo gulf views. A window-lined office area and two walk-in wardrobes, a spa bath with a deep Victoria & Albert soaking tub, an oversized glass-enclosed shower with Graff fixtures, a double floating vanity with lighted Robern cabinets, and a makeup area with a Kohler triple-lighted mirror complete the space. Additionally, two guest rooms and a full bath are conveniently located on the main level, along with a powder bath, a comfortable den/media room with triple bay windows, and laundry. On the home’s entry level, you’ll find a 1200-bottle wine cellar to accommodate a prized collection and a 600 sq. ft. Bonus Room with a half bath - the perfect place to work from home, work out, or pursue hobbies. The 900 sq. ft garage easily accommodates two or three vehicles, a golf cart, plenty of beach gear, and storage. Solid heart-walnut floors, deep base mouldings, and a wood-burning fireplace bring warmth to this artistic custom home, while the standing-seam roof brings style and security. Ideally located in the vibrant Village of Longboat Key, a neighborhood renowned for its stunning natural beauty, direct access to the pristine beach and sparkling bay, walking and biking paths, restaurants, shops, and neighborhood gatherings, there are endless recreational possibilities. Launch your kayak or boat, drop a fishing line, or watch the manatees and dolphins at play - all from the convenience of your large backyard, and all just minutes from the Gulf of Mexico. Jump on your bike or golf cart or walk to a morning Pilates or weight workout, enjoy a leisurely coffee at the local cafe, take in a dramatic sunset on one of the area's prized beaches, or meet friends for dinner at one of the island's popular restaurants. For the first time, this solidly constructed, meticulously maintained home, with its harmonious blend of sophistication and comfort, is awaiting the next fortunate owners. Substantial price reductions make this one of the best values on the island. Realtor Owner.
