A true island retreat, this stunning canal-front residence offers an ideal blend of comfort, elegance, and coastal charm. Featuring 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the home boasts Deeded Beach Access to the pristine shores of the Gulf of Mexico, ensuring an unparalleled waterfront lifestyle. Spanning 132 linear feet of Canal Frontage with a New Seawall & kayak launch (2020) provides Direct Boating access to Sarasota Bay and Beyond. A comprehensive renovation, completed in December 2022, further enhances the property's allure. Designed for peace of mind, the home includes all-new plumbing and electrical systems with a new panel and a commercial-grade whole-house surge protector. The bathrooms have been thoughtfully redesigned with Italian marble-look ceramic tiles, featuring an alcove soaking tub in the master suite and a walk-in shower with a rain showerhead in the guest bath. The expansive 900-square-foot screened porch, featuring new brick pavers and screens, invites seamless indoor-outdoor living, while impact sliding glass doors enhance both security and accessibility. Upon entering, the formal living room impresses with vaulted ceilings, an electric fireplace set against a striking stacked-stone accent wall, and breathtaking water views. The master bedroom offers private access to the screened porch through sliding glass doors, while French doors lead to a tranquil backyard oasis. In the family room, a second 60-inch remote-controlled electric fireplace, framed by a floor-to-ceiling split-face stone surround and marble mantle, creates an inviting ambiance for relaxation and gatherings. Additional features include a tankless gas water heater for continuous hot water, as well as elegant wood-look ceramic tile flooring that flows seamlessly throughout the home. Before the flood, the residence boasted dual AC units and new ductwork, installed in 2020, and equipped with Nest thermostats for optimal climate control. The gourmet kitchen featuring solid wood cabinetry with soft-close hardware, marble-look quartz countertops, and high-end GE Café stainless steel appliances with elegant copper accents.
