Just inside the gates of the prestigious Riegels Landing, this grand residence presents the opportunity to live with privacy in a lush landscape with the conveniences and excitement of Siesta Key at your fingertips. A boater’s paradise, this quiet community is situated on a private harbor. The home includes a deeded boat dock with a lift to enjoy direct access to the intracoastal waterway. The home is a short walk to Siesta Key Beach. Tropical landscaping; towering, mature palms; and a freshly painted exterior create perfect curb appeal as you approach the grand, double entry wood doors. Renovated in 2012, the open concept space features a soaring box ceiling and telescope sliding doors that open to extend the main room into a terrace overlooking the pool. The renovation includes clever design elements, such as a reclaimed wood beam from the Ringling Hotel utilized as a built-in entertainment shelf and a spacious built-in kitchen nook. The kitchen is a chef’s delight with neutral cabinets and an oversize kitchen island draped in stylish granite that gleams under fashionable designer lighting. Serve your creative cuisine to a few or a crowd with generous seating throughout multiple dining areas. The owner’s suite, with its private entrance to a sitting niche on the terrace, is serene and offers a unique owner’s bathroom with coastal features in the designer cabinetry, countertops and soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms and a den offer ample guest accommodations. Entertain inside or out with your second story outdoor dining terrace overlooking the elongated pool and lounging patio. Utilize your non-conforming, 1st floor space to create further opportunities for entertainment, hobbies and business needs. This marvelous home features furnishings and finishes from high end retailers (Restoration Hardware, Crate & Barrel, and local antique dealers) and is being offered turnkey furnished. Come take a look and imagine your island life in this Siesta Key oasis!
