Elevated living, literally and figuratively. Over 6000 sq/ft of spacious indoor/outdoor accommodation, island breezes, top-notch finishes, nestled into a quiet neighborhood. It’s the best of everything on Anna Maria Island. The home, custom built by one of the island's most prominent builders, is loaded with options you’ll love. Travertine and high-end hardwood flooring in living areas and bedrooms, marble counters in the kitchen, and craftsman's trim catches the eye everywhere else. Like to cook? You’ll be doing it on Wolf and Thermador appliances. Like to cook outdoors? Exit the main living area of the home through hurricane impact sliders and onto the balcony where you’ll find a gas grill and pizza oven. There, you can watch manatees and other wildlife with big views of the backyard and canal. That canal, only a 3 minute boat ride to Tampa Bay and beyond. The dock and lift is plenty capable for any size vessel you have, or just a simple dip with kayaks or paddle boards. All 3 levels of the home, usable, spacious, private, aesthetically pleasing. The pool deck is resort-like, with sun-shelf, spa, fire pit, and covered entertaining space. More? You have a community pool and tennis/pickleball court as well. The landscaping is immaculate, the location is prime, and the home has ample storage on each level. An elegant fortress, high and dry, and battle tested. Furnished options available.
