May 29, 2026 – Sarasota, FL
Cover Home Exclusive | Rising above an enviable stretch of shoreline, this Gulf-front estate showcases timeless architecture and coastal refinement. Designed by CMSA Architects and completed in 2020, the residence features layered rooflines, sculpted stone staircases, and soaring arched windows across more than 180 feet of Gulf frontage. With 10,600 square feet of interiors and 20,982 square feet in total, the home offers a grand yet effortless indoor–outdoor lifestyle, ideal for both elevated entertaining and daily living.
A sweeping motor court, mature palms, and a grand double staircase create an immediate sense of arrival. Inside, natural light and uninterrupted Gulf vistas establish a feeling of calm, scale, and sophistication from sunrise to sunset. The great room, lined with floor-to-ceiling arched windows and anchored by a carved-stone fireplace, delivers both serenity and architectural presence.
The main kitchen is a triumph of craftsmanship – featuring custom Campbell cabinetry, quartz countertops, designer lighting, Sub-Zero refrigeration, a Wolf six-burner dual-oven range, and a substantial island that anchors the open flow into the living and dining spaces. A prep kitchen and workspace elevate functionality with premium appliances, expansive storage, quartz counters, and a dedicated gift-wrapping wall. The bar and wine room create a refined entertaining destination, defined by custom cabinetry and designer lighting. An iron-and-glass–enclosed, temperature-controlled wine room serves as the focal point, complemented by adjacent illuminated display shelving. Sub-Zero refrigeration, an ice maker, and a Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawer complete the space.
Outdoors, the estate unfolds across three dramatic tiers of Gulf-facing living, featuring arched loggias and a resort-style alfresco kitchen with a wraparound bar that opens seamlessly to the main living spaces. An elevated infinity-edge pool and spa appear to merge with the Gulf, while thoughtfully designed outdoor areas transition effortlessly to a manicured lawn and direct access to the crystal-clear waters at Point of Rocks—where snorkeling, dolphin sightings, and sunset walks become part of daily life. The primary suite forms a private wing, introduced by an illuminated groin-vault corridor that enhances the home’s architectural rhythm.
Gulf views fill the bedroom and its terrace, while the bath offers a symmetrically designed retreat with dual vanities, full-height mirrors, multiple chandeliers, a massive double-entry shower, a stone-surround soaking tub, a Sub-Zero–equipped coffee bar, and two exceptional custom closets. Nearby, the office provides a quiet, light-filled workspace. The upper level is devoted to comfort and privacy, offering four well-appointed guest suites, a spacious family room with a wet bar, multiple terraces capturing Gulf views, an additional office, and a laundry room.
The ground level is enhanced by indoor–outdoor walkways connecting multiple spaces and generous storage, reinforcing the effortless, resort-style livability. A generator, 3-stop elevator, 6-plus humidity-controlled garage spaces, floor-to-ceiling shades, linear vents, whole-house automation, and shellstone and French oak flooring complete the offering. A short, shaded, tree-lined walk places you at Siesta Key Beach, the No. 1 beach in America by TripAdvisor, offering effortless access to one of the world’s most iconic shorelines.
