Deep boating water on the Grand Canal and Siesta Key's world-famous beaches just minutes away, experience the best of island living. This beautifully renovated three-bedroom, three-bath waterfront residence offers a peaceful island retreat with nearly 2,900 square feet of living space plus a private office, ideal for everyday living and entertaining. On a quiet cul-de-sac in the desirable Siesta Isles neighborhood, the property enjoys approximately 99 feet of canal frontage with deep boating water and convenient access to Sarasota Bay and the Gulf of Mexico via a single bridge. The dock, rebuilt in 2024, is ready for boating, paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing and enjoying Sarasota's exceptional waterways. Recently completed renovations have transformed the home into a fresh, move-in-ready coastal residence. Bright and welcoming interiors feature new finishes and thoughtfully selected materials. The open living spaces are designed to capture the beauty of the waterfront setting, creating a natural flow for relaxed living and entertaining. The newly redesigned kitchen features classic shaker-style cabinetry, quartz countertops and new appliances, creating a functional and stylish centerpiece for the home.

The spacious primary suite enjoys tranquil canal views through French doors and includes a private sitting room, creating a comfortable retreat in the home. The large primary bath provides generous space and is designed for relaxation and convenience. Outdoor living is equally inviting. The expansive pool terrace with oversized pool and spa overlooks the canal, offering a private setting for relaxing or gathering with friends and family. Begin your day with coffee on the pool deck while enjoying brilliant sunrises and end the evening with Siesta Key's vibrant sunsets just minutes away at nearby Siesta Beach. Ideally near Siesta Key's renowned quartz-sand beaches, the boutiques and dining of Siesta Village, and cultural amenities of downtown Sarasota, including the Ringling Museum and Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, this location combines island tranquility with convenient access to the area's best attractions. Offering the rare combination of a beautifully renovated waterfront home, deep boating water and a peaceful Siesta Key setting, this exceptional property captures the essence of Sarasota's island lifestyle.
