Immerse yourself in classic “Old Florida” in this 3-bed, 2-bath gem, a stone’s throw from Siesta Key Beach. The living room exudes charm with open-beam ceilings, built-in seating, and a wood-burning fireplace. True to mid-century fashion, the home is crafted with solid Cypress wood doors, tongue & groove paneling and the use of iconic Pecky Cypress. The kitchen features refaced cabinets, newer appliances, granite countertops, and Italian ceramic tile flooring. A seamless blend of indoors and outdoors is achieved with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that open from the living and kitchen areas to a nearly 650 sq ft front lanai- ideal for entertaining with family and friends and perfect for relaxing on hammocks after a day at the beach. The primary bedroom, a generous 640 sq ft retreat, boasts open-beam ceilings, French windows and doors, an ensuite bath, a walk-in closet, and separate entrances that allow for privacy, ideal for guests or extended family.
The home offers versatility, as the layout might lend itself to being configured as a 2-bedroom/1 bath up front, with the primary bedroom serving as a fully equipped “Owner’s Suite” with the install of a kitchenette. Original finishes grace the two guest bedrooms, complete with open-beam ceilings, custom built-in desks, dressers and closets. Whether you seek a private retreat, a lucrative rental, or year-round personal enjoyment, this unique beach home is unmatched. In terms of design, craftsmanship, quality of materials, and location, this home stands as a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. A 10’ x 12’ free-standing outbuilding at the back of the property, equipped with electricity, can serve as an artist’s workshop or storage space. Plus, there’s room for a pool.
