Far removed but not far away, this enchanting Siesta Key home with separate guest house is designed for relaxed island living. Extremely private and set on unobstructed canal views, you'll feel a world away surrounded by mature tropical landscaping. An entry gate welcomes you home while guests are ushered inside by way of the gracious veranda. The interiors have been remarkably renovated and beautifully maintained, imbued with a romantic, cottage-chic vibe. Marble and hardwood floors throughout are accented by tray and coffered ceilings, crown molding, and intricate millwork. Two separate dining areas set the stage for good food and conversation. A wall of richly detailed bookcases creates a cozy family room, enhanced by the glow of the fireplace. Each bathroom has been beautifully updated with marble floors. Unwind in the layered luxury of the master suite with fireplace, sitting area, and spacious porch for water and sunset views. Three additional bedrooms create a retreat for loved ones. The separate guest house includes one bedroom and bath plus a kitchenette for a complete getaway. Romantic and serene, the outdoor living area is wonderfully secluded and includes a pool with flagstone deck, outdoor grill space, and dock with boat lift. A newer roof and A/C and a two-car garage are the finishing touches. House is available turnkey furnished. Situated only one block from Out-of-Door Academy, a top private school, while the famous white sands of Siesta Key are just a walk or bike ride away.
