Hidden behind stately wrought-iron gates, 4610 Hidden River Drive reveals a world where timeless European craftsmanship meets the tranquility of the Sarasota countryside. This magnificent French Country estate spans 38 private acres within the Hidden River Aviation Community—one of Florida’s most exclusive enclaves, where manicured pastures, private skies, and unspoiled vistas define a lifestyle of privilege.
From the moment you arrive, grandeur surrounds you. A circular drive sweeps beneath a majestic porte cochère, leading to a residence fluent in sophistication. Inside, soaring wood-beamed ceilings, an antique-brick hearth reaching to the rafters, and sunlight pouring through walls of glass create warmth and light. Every view frames the estate’s tranquil pond, glistening saltwater pool, and screened cabana amid natural beauty.
The heart of the home, a showpiece kitchen for the modern gourmand, pairs beauty with performance—granite countertops, professional-grade stainless appliances, gas cooktop, smart refrigeration, wine storage, and custom lighting crafted to perfection. Nearby, a powder room and full laundry provide convenience. The refined dining room opens to a broad entertaining deck overlooking pastoral scenes, ideal for intimate dinners or sunset soirées under amber skies.
Spanning 1,472 square feet, the primary suite feels like a five-star retreat. Triple sliding doors welcome morning light over secluded decks with panoramic views. Inside, dual closets, a wet bar, and additional laundry enhance function. The spa bath indulges with marble vanities, two discreet water closets, ample linen storage, and a walk-in shower with three showerheads—a sanctuary supported by a tankless water system providing endless warmth.
A versatile bonus room with full bath serves as private office, media lounge, or extra bedroom. Travertine flooring, a three-zone climate system, and integrated security technology maintain comfort and peace of mind.
Outdoors, the grounds unfold like a resort devoted to leisure. The resurfaced saltwater pool sparkles beneath the Florida sun inside a screened cabana for year-round enjoyment. Two oversized garages function as workshops with utility sinks, organized storage, and pet stations. Across the drive, a charming two-bedroom cottage with kitchen, bath, laundry, and fenced yard awaits guests or staff.
For equestrian and aviation enthusiasts, this estate defines luxury. A two-stall barn with tack room, five fenced pastures, and multiple wells—including one with a modern water treatment system—ensure pristine comfort for residents and livestock. A dedicated fuel station powers motorcars or aircraft. The expansive hangar and nearby metal facility house planes, workshops, or studios. Located within Hidden River Airport (FAA 22FA)—Florida’s only private aviation park—the property enjoys direct access to a 2,525-foot illuminated runway, combining rural serenity with open-sky freedom.
Currently benefiting from a federal agricultural exemption, this estate unites grandeur with practical advantage. With no HOA or deed restrictions, owners may shape the land to fit their vision—from equestrian pursuits to gardens or expanded facilities.
Just minutes from downtown Sarasota, the UTC Mall, acclaimed restaurants, arts venues, and the sugar sands of the Gulf Coast—4610 Hidden River Drive stands as an estate of distinction, a canvas of elegance and ambition where every sunrise invites the dreamer within.
