This elegantly appointed home features 8, 571 square feet of living space with a covered terrace that expands the entire width of the home.

The terrace and its lounge area along with the summer kitchen provide the perfect atmosphere for dining and entertaining. French doors open onto the terrace from every room on the east side of the home allowing you to flow freely from one room to another. Three 17th-century marble Italian-inspired gas fireplaces, hand-chiseled travertine flooring, deep crown molding, ornamental friezes and carved cornices embellish this home with its first-floor 12-foot ceilings. Four perfectly balanced en-suites with a modern master bath and his and her walk-in closets, two of which open onto the second-floor terrace with its expansive bay views. Gourmet kitchen with two Sub-Zero refrigerators, freezer drawers with ice makers, two Miele dishwashers, double Wolf ovens and warming drawers, gas range with a custom faux-finished vented rangehood. The expansive kitchen seamlessly connects to the formal dining with a sophisticated butler's pantry. Custom cabinetry and accent lighting with quartz counters and a 140-plus bottle Sub-Zero wine cooler are just a few of the luxuries to help keep your guests entertained. The large study and back hallway leading to the family room are the perfect spots to end your day. The newly landscaped yard and irrigation with the double gate make this home easy to maintain and carefree. Take advantage of the full under-house garage, large enough for 12 cars or storage of your favorite toys. Garage access to the totally revamped custom elevator travels to all three floors of the home. A heated saltwater pool and spa are surrounded by Malibu Marble with multiple entertainment areas and 120 feet of deep water with a concrete seawall and composite wood dock make this home the perfect Siesta Key residence.
