Description

You will find a water lovers paradise in this 4 bed, 4 and 1/2 bath home. Enjoy long views of the bay and bird islands over deep water accommodating the most demanding boater with a private dock, power hoist and immediate access to the Gulf of Mexico. Freeling Drive is on the north end of Siesta Key which means you're close to downtown Sarasota and all urban amenities. This sunny, light-fill home opens to expansive outdoor living areas including terraces, a pool for hot afternoon cool downs and an outdoor kitchen with adjacent covered dining porch. There's even an old Florida banyan tree providing a perfect, shady spot for a hammock. Open bay views greet you immediately upon entry in to this house; a view you will enjoy from most every room. The kitchen is designed for efficiency with plenty of counter space, stainless steel, gas appliances and a breakfast bar overlooking a dining area with access to your outdoor living arena. There are 2 master suites, one up and one down. A bonus room for billiards & large gatherings which could be a 3rd suite and 2 additional bedrooms for family or guests. The rear southern exposure provides specacular sunrises and sunsets over a natural environment unchanged for ages. More basic features include an oversized garage with a built-in workshop, standing seam metal roof and a well for irrigation. Opportunities like this do not occur often in Bay Isles. Come and see why this may be one of the most exotic locales on the Gulf Coast of Florida.
