Secluded waterfront playground on north Siesta Key. Immerse yourself in a rich and many-layered world deeply-rooted in ecology and grounded in place and community. Built on one of the highest natural grades on Siesta Key, this residence draws upon the principles of organic architecture, with interior and exterior in balanced harmony. Affectionately referred to as “Selby of Siesta,” the native landscape is sublime. Each room has a beautiful view of the outdoors where old oak trees create a filtered light canopy over the residence. There’s plenty of room to play, too. The oversized driveway accommodates basketball and skateboarding. The large back lawn is perfect for soccer, football and volleyball. The pool/spa with surrounding decks invite water fun and relaxation. The deep-water dock with a 16,000-lbs. boat lift and kayak/paddleboard rack get you out on the water for enjoying the salt life. Gated, private beach access for the exclusive use of Cocoanut Bayou residents. Inside, high ceilings, skylights and exceptionally large windows create an open space with a calming ambiance. The living room and family room both have fully-pocketed sliding glass doors to the covered back deck with a water view. The cook’s kitchen features two islands, a gas cooktop with downdraft ventilation, new solid-wood cabinet fronts and quartz countertops. The split floor plan has three bedrooms on one side of the home and the master suite on the other. Each of the four bedrooms has an en-suite bath and sliding glass doors to a covered balcony. The master suite features a large, private loft that can be used to your heart’s desire – a meditation room, library, yoga studio, office. From the loft’s balcony, you can see the bay, Siesta Key bridge and beyond. The home’s ground level offers a full floor of non-conforming, conditioned flex space for recreation and storage. Nature, privacy and the sea. With Sarasota Bay at your back yard and easy access to Florida’s Cultural Coast from your front door, unlock the magic of life which lies at the heart of this enchanted setting.
