April 8, 2025 – Sarasota, FL
Crystal Waters is poised to become the highest residential sale ever recorded in the Sarasota area—and a defining achievement for Roger Pettingell and the Pettingell Professionals team. This is more than a home; it’s a generational estate that blends visionary design with unmatched waterfront living.
Set on nearly three acres with 217 feet of prime bayfront on Siesta Key, the property offers sweeping views, privacy, and thoughtful luxury at every turn. A dream guest house, garage parking for seven cars, private tennis pavilion, resort-style pool, and thoughtfully curated gardens create a world of their own. Inside, every room tells a story—custom cabinetry, one-of-a-kind finishes, and design elements never before seen in Sarasota. Each space has been lovingly crafted to balance elegance with comfort.
As Roger says, “In over $3 billion in sales and 30 years of representing Sarasota’s finest properties, I’ve never experienced anything quite like this.” Featured in The Wall Street Journal, Robb Report, and Sarasota Magazine, this isn’t just the most valuable listing on the market; it’s a moment of pride for Sarasota and a landmark representation of its evolving luxury market.
