About this home
Set within the prestigious Harbor Acres neighborhood—one of Sarasota’s most sought-after waterfront enclaves, this stunningly renovated gated estate occupies an exceptional lot on the Hillview Point with 171 feet of Sarasota Bay frontage and sweeping, unobstructed panoramic views. This magnificent two-story residence, designed by renowned architect Cliff Scholz, offers six bedrooms, seven full baths, and two half baths, complemented by an oversized three-car garage—providing a seamless blend of architectural grandeur and everyday livability. A dramatic two-story foyer welcomes you inside, where expansive west-facing walls of glass capture breathtaking water vistas and bathe the home in natural light. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both refined entertaining and comfortable living, featuring a waterfront living room, an inviting family room, and an elegant dining room. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen showcases authentic zebrawood cabinetry celebrated for its exotic grain patterns and rich natural character, paired with Quartz countertops, a generous center island, premium appliances, and a breakfast area with a dedicated coffee bar—perfectly suited for intimate mornings or hosting on a grand scale. Additional highlights include a private library, executive office, a full-service bar, and secondary laundry room. The owner’s suite is a serene waterfront sanctuary, offering tranquil Sarasota Bay views, dual spa-inspired bathrooms, three walk-in closets, and a private laundry—creating a truly elevated retreat experience. Ascend the sweeping staircase or take the private elevator to the second level, where five beautifully appointed guest suites provide exceptional comfort and privacy. Two of these suites, along with the upstairs library, enjoy coveted waterfront positioning and direct access to a spectacular 35-foot terrace overlooking Sarasota Bay—an ideal setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or quiet moments of reflection. An additional laundry room on this level adds to the home’s thoughtful functionality. Outdoor living is equally impressive. Host unforgettable gatherings on the expansive 76-foot elevated terrace with summer kitchen or unwind poolside at the resort-style terrace featuring a 55-foot heated pool and generous lounging areas. For boating enthusiasts, private dockage delivers effortless access to Sarasota Bay and the open waters beyond. This extraordinary waterfront estate embodies the very essence of Sarasota luxury—where timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and unparalleled coastal views come together in a truly rare offering.
