About this home
Refreshed and back on the market! Lakefront masterpiece in the prestigious Founders Club. Crafted by renowned builder Todd Johnston, this 5 bedroom, 5.5 bathroom home offers 6,800 square feet of sophisticated living space. Luxurious craftsmanship abounds as you enter through the grand formal double-door entry featuring a mosaic marble inlay opening to coffered ceilings soaring above elegant hardwood and travertine marble floors throughout. Extensive millwork and hand built cabinetry highlight quality at every step.

Don’t miss the opportunity to make this magnificent home yours!
Local Insight
At $485/sqft, you're paying a premium for the waterfront location and Founders Club amenities, but that price point is fair for a 5-bed waterfront home in Sarasota right now—the real question is whether the 2007 construction and single-story layout work for your long-term needs. The in-law suite is genuinely valuable for multigenerational living or rental income potential, and being in flood zone X removes a major cost headache, but run a thorough inspection on a 17-year-old waterfront property before committing, as salt exposure and pool maintenance can be expensive surprises.
