About this home

Welcome to this exceptional waterfront home in the highly sought-after Harbor Acres neighborhood. With more than 5,000 square feet of living space, this five-bedroom, five-full-and-two-half-bath residence combines classic Spanish/Mediterranean style with comfortable living and beautiful waterfront views. Located on a private waterfront basin with direct access to Sarasota Bay, the home offers spectacular sunsets and an ideal setting for enjoying the Florida lifestyle. The home features two primary suites, one on each level. The first-floor suite has private garage access and is well suited for guests, extended family, or multigenerational living. The additional bedrooms offer flexibility for offices, a fitness room, or other uses. The spacious interior includes a gourmet kitchen with granite and quartz countertops, wet bar, wine cooler, breakfast bar, and open access to the family room. Multiple electric fireplaces add warmth and character, and an interior elevator provides easy access between floors. Outdoor living is a major highlight. Covered lanais on both levels overlook the heated PebbleTec pool, spa, and waterfront. A covered outdoor dining area with summer sink and pool bath provides an ideal space for entertaining. Tropical landscaping adds privacy and creates a relaxing resort-style setting. Boating enthusiasts will appreciate the deep-water dock with boat lift and room for a large vessel, with convenient access to Sarasota Bay and the surrounding waterways. The home is move-in ready and has been meticulously maintained. Recent improvements include three new AC/HVAC systems (2024), two new gas water heaters, a variable-speed Jandy pool pump, new seawall cap, and a 22KW Generac generator, along with more than $50,000 in additional upgrades. Harbor Acres is conveniently located near Downtown Sarasota, Lido Key, and Siesta Key, as well as excellent restaurants, boutique shopping, hospitals, medical offices, banks, and everyday conveniences. A rare opportunity to own a spacious waterfront home with direct Sarasota Bay access, excellent boating amenities, a private pool and spa, and flexible living spaces in one of Sarasota's most desirable neighborhoods.
