Description
Why build when you can have this meticulously maintained and updated Contemporary masterpiece TODAY? This four-bed, fourth bath home is in the private enclave of Ringling Point. Ringling Point is a small peninsula on Sarasota Bay with only 10 waterfront homes. 360-degree views take in Stephens Bay, downtown Sarasota, Sarasota Bay and John Ringling’s gilded era mansion, Ca d’ Zan. The deeded boat slip is protected from prevailing winds and has newer decking, a lift, electric and water. The seawall of this private marina was also recently rebuilt to very high standards. The architecture is dynamic with a long, broad roof overhang and wrap around terraces. Inside, “window walls” and sliding glass doors open indoor space to the outdoors. This will add over 1,200 square feet of living space and provide fresh sea breezes, endless sunsets, and views from every angle. The open plan has varied ceiling heights, clerestory windows and exposed steel beam construction. Adding to the “industrial” aesthetic are polished, metal ducts conditioning the entire space. Warming elements include continuous wood floors throughout, and a stacked stone accent wall in the living room showcasing a decorative fireplace as a focal point. The kitchen has an island perfect for entertaining with barstools, Sub Zero wine cooler, refrigerated drawers and even a creative ice bucket built right into the countertop. The stainless-steel appliance package includes a 5 burner, natural gas range and a side-by-side Sub Zero. The en-suite bedrooms, including the master, are elegant with private outdoor spaces and views of the lush neighborhood and surrounding waters. The 4th bedroom is currently used as a loft office space and overlooks the entire living area below. It has a private balconette and views which could improve your productivity or distract you with a continuous Florida cloud display. The outdoor living at this home is “resort-like” with a saltwater pool, waterfall, a separate spa tub and a waterfront terrace down a few cascading steps toward the bay. All of this is surrounded by exotic and tropical landscaping including majestic rows of Royal Palms. The garage has a Tesla charging station and a recently installed smoked-glass garage door which is just one more example of how forward thinking the current owners are when it comes to keeping this contemporary architectural jewel completely relevant for today’s market.
