Welcome to your personal island paradise on Siesta Key! This stunning 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with a 2-car garage and office is the epitome of beach and boating bliss. Just a short walk from the world-renowned Siesta Key Beach, famous for its powdery white quartz sand and dazzling azure waters, this 2,527 square-foot gem sits on the grand canal, offering deep boating water and a front-row seat to spectacular, colorful sunsets every evening.

Step inside to an open, light-filled floor plan that has been lovingly expanded and renovated. A new 2024 roof new gutters, 2021 & 2017 HVACs, a new second 200-amp electrical panel, a new 100-amp sub-panel, 50-amp EV charging outlet, new tankless water heater, new pool pump & heater, hurricane impact sliders, with plumbing hydrojetted, descaled & lined in 2023, provides peace of mind & affordable insurance for decades to come.

The heart of this home is the gourmet kitchen, a masterpiece of high-end design and functionality. Custom-built cabinetry with a sleek melamine finish, including a coffee station and appliance garage, all feature push-to-open mechanisms. The floating butcher block table adds a touch of charm, complemented by custom pendant lights and a ceiling flush mount light fixture in the kitchen nook.

The dining room, featuring a striking wood ceiling and sliding glass doors, opens to a lush, tropical backyard. Here, you can relax by the pool, catch some rays, or dine alfresco under the stars on the trellised patio. An extensive landscaping rebuild has transformed the yard into a tropical oasis.

The owner's suite is a serene retreat with a custom wood ceiling, bamboo floors, and a large master bath featuring a separate shower, jetted tub, and new Toto toilet. French doors open to a versatile space that can serve as a den, office, or fifth bedroom.
