About this home
It's All About the View. Some homes are defined by their architecture. Others by their location. This one is defined by what you see the moment you walk through the front door. Tucked away at the end of one of Siesta Key's most private, tree-lined streets, this exceptional bayfront retreat enjoys nearly 180-degree panoramic views across Sarasota Bay, where endless open water, spectacular sunrises, and distant estate homes create a setting that is nothing short of mesmerizing. It is a view that changes by the hour and never gets old. Originally designed by Tollyn Twitchell, son of Sarasota architectural pioneer Ralph Twitchell, this distinctive mid-century residence embraces its architectural heritage with soaring ceilings, expansive walls of glass, and light-filled living spaces designed to celebrate the waterfront. The main residence offers two bedrooms, two baths, plus a spacious office or den, while the detached one-bedroom guest house provides the perfect private retreat for family, friends, or extended stays. With 75 feet of Sarasota Bay frontage, a newly updated dock featuring composite decking and a 13,500-pound boat lift, mornings can begin with coffee overlooking the bay before heading out for a day of boating, fishing, paddleboarding, or simply enjoying the peaceful waterfront surroundings. Tucked behind a natural mangrove shoreline, the property offers both beauty and protection while remaining just minutes from Siesta Beach, Siesta Village, and convenient access on and off the island. Whether you're searching for a peaceful island escape, an architecturally significant waterfront residence, or the perfect site to create a future dream home, opportunities like this rarely become available. Professional photography is coming soon, but the sellers couldn't wait to introduce one of Siesta Key's most captivating bayfront settings.
