1400 SIESTA DR

Three levels of modern updates define this remarkable bayfront retreat in one of Sarasota's most sought-after locations. This home is perfectly positioned on an oversized corner lot with nearly 250 feet of frontage on two sides, offering unparalleled views and seamless access to Sarasota Bay. A newly installed dock and kayak launch make this a true boater's paradise. A gated entry and winding pavered driveway set the stage for the architectural beauty that awaits inside. The nearly 5,400-square-foot interior has been masterfully reimagined, with sleek designer finishes, custom built-ins, and an open-concept layout that maximizes the breathtaking bayfront backdrop. Expansive walls of glass invite an abundance of natural light, while oversized porcelain tile flooring connects each space with contemporary sophistication. The main living area is an entertainer's dream, with a spacious great room anchored by a built-in wet bar, and a formal dining area that capitalizes on the home's panoramic views. The chef-inspired kitchen is a showpiece of style and function, featuring custom cabinetry, floating open shelves, quartz countertops, mirrored tile backsplash, an oversized island with seating, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances--including a built-in coffee bar. A French door leads to the waterfront terrace, where dazzling sunset views create the perfect evening ambiance. A private sanctuary awaits on the top level, where the primary suite offers a luxurious escape with its own waterfront terrace and spiral staircase leading to the outdoor living areas below. The walk-in closet is a curated masterpiece of custom built-ins, while the spa-like en-suite bathroom showcases exquisite details, including gold fixtures, floor-to-ceiling designer tile, soaking tub, and glass-enclosed shower with multiple showerheads. The ground level is designed for comfort and versatility, with two additional guest suites that open to the pool deck. The largest of these suites features an en-suite bathroom and built-in dry bar. Outdoor living is equally exceptional, with a resurfaced heated swimming pool and spa, expansive deck, and covered cabana areas that create an inviting retreat for waterfront relaxation. The premier location of this exclusive residence is minutes from downtown Sarasota's vibrant arts and dining scene, St. Armands Circle's luxury shopping, and the world-famous beaches of Siesta Key and Lido Key.
