With canal frontage, a boat dock with a lift, heated pool & spa, and a two-car garage, this home offers a third of an acre at a prime location on Siesta Key, Florida’s premier gulf coast destination. Situated alongside a waterway just off the Grand Canal, a 10-mile-long waterway that serpentines throughout the key, this expansive 3,083 square foot home offers large living spaces as well as 3 beds with a den and 3.5 baths. This home sustained storm damage during Hurricane Helene in September 2024 and has had appropriate mitigation completed. The opportunity is now yours to take this blank canvas and create your dream property. With a Spanish colonial inspired elevation, this home did not sustain damage to its curb appeal. On your approach, a circular paver driveway and charming front porch framed by natural wood elements and landscaping beds once plentiful with lush vegetation create stunning curb appeal. A grand entrance opens to a sprawling living space with a seamless flow from dining space through to the gorgeous kitchen. A beautiful fireplace once flanked by substantial built ins lends a warmth to the space while multiple sets of classic French doors allow for bright, Florida sunshine to flood the room. With a little help, the kitchen will be a chef’s dream again as the current layout features dual tone cabinets, attractive countertops and a show stopping island with seating for 5-6. With a wall of pantry cabinets, coffee bar and additional cocktail bar, there is no shortage of storage or possibilities! Each bedroom is exceptionally generous, but the primary suite is simply divine with a large footprint, dual walk-in closets and an ensuite bath that exudes luxury in size and finishes. Step outside to your outdoor oasis featuring a paver pathway that connects multiple patios but ultimately leads you back to the stunning views of the Grand Canal. A golf cart ride, bike ride or leisurely walk will have you exploring the heart of Siesta Key’s village with eateries, shops, dessert shops and of course access to the beach with views of the sparkling waters of the Gulf of Mexico. With some creativity and a bit of effort, this home can be restored to its former glory and will be a beautiful homestead for the year round resident or seasonal Siesta Key dweller!
