Virtually Staged. Set on 6.63 private acres at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this gated estate offers a rare combination of acreage, privacy, and convenience that is becoming increasingly difficult to find in Sarasota County. Thoughtfully reimagined and extensively updated, the property blends the character of an established country estate with the style, functionality, and level of finish today's luxury buyers seek.
Inside, vaulted ceilings and an open-concept design create a balance of architectural presence and everyday livability. The living room is anchored by a dramatic wood-burning fireplace enhanced by custom floor-to-ceiling millwork, creating a striking focal point within the home. Just beyond, the kitchen has been reimagined as both a gathering space and a showpiece, featuring natural stone countertops, a large center island, gas cooktop, custom shelving, dedicated coffee station, separate bar area with wine refrigerator, and an expansive butler's pantry with additional prep space, refrigeration, and storage. The adjoining dining area comfortably accommodates large-scale entertaining while remaining connected to the home's primary living spaces.
The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers five bedrooms and five-and-a-half bathrooms within the main residence, including a first-floor primary suite and a second upstairs primary suite with a private balcony overlooking the pool and surrounding acreage. Two additional first-floor bedrooms are connected by a beautifully renovated Jack-and-Jill bath, while an additional upstairs en-suite bedroom provides comfortable accommodations for family and guests.
Throughout the home, carefully selected materials and distinctive finishes create a cohesive sense of style, including imported European porcelain tile, quartzite and marble surfaces, a statement powder bath with a sculptural marble sink, and a beautifully finished pool bath with extensive marble detailing and a walk-in shower.
Outdoor living was designed to embrace the property's peaceful setting. The pool and spa overlook a small pond and are surrounded by expansive outdoor living areas, while the covered outdoor kitchen with grill adds convenience for outdoor dining and entertaining. A detached studio guest house with a full kitchen and bathroom offers exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, a private office, fitness studio, or creative space.
Additional features include a whole-house generator, whole-house reverse osmosis system, separate irrigation well, gated entry, and a three-car garage.
Located within Gator Creek Estates, one of Sarasota's premier acreage communities, residents enjoy expansive homesites, natural surroundings, and a sense of privacy rarely found this close to everyday conveniences. Lakewood Ranch, Waterside Place, UTC, downtown Sarasota, and Sarasota's renowned Gulf Coast beaches are all within easy reach, creating an ideal balance between peaceful estate living and access to the area's most desirable destinations.
