SANCTUARY BY THE SEA: A RARE SIESTA KEY WATERFRONT RETREAT Now Offered at $3,290,000 | Exceptional Value on Sought-After Siesta Key Welcome to a home where mornings begin with dolphin sightings and evenings unfold with golden sunsets. Built in 2015 by acclaimed builder Lee Wetherington, this custom Key West-style retreat offers more than luxury—it offers a sanctuary for connection, serenity, and coastal living at its finest. A SERENE ISLAND RETREAT Tucked at the quiet end of a cul-de-sac, this home enjoys rare privacy just moments from world-renowned Siesta Key Beach (ranked #1 in the U.S. and #3 globally in 2025) and the lively village with its dining, shops, and charm. Its elevated position and thoughtful design create a sense of peace while keeping you close to the best of island life. INSPIRED DESIGN, NATURAL ELEGANCE Step inside to discover soaring 12-foot ceilings, rich wood floors, and interiors that invite both connection and retreat. The open-concept layout unites living, dining, and kitchen spaces, centered around a recently updated chef’s kitchen with Thermador appliances, quartz countertops, and a walk-in pantry—perfect for everything from casual breakfasts to unforgettable dinner parties. PRIVATE PRIMARY SUITE The main-level primary suite is thoughtfully separated for privacy and renewal. Spa-like finishes, generous space, and tranquil surroundings make it a true personal haven—an intentional design choice for those who value rest and reflection. SEAMLESS INDOOR-OUTDOOR LIVING The magic unfolds as glass doors open to a covered lanai, heated saltwater pool and spa, and a full outdoor kitchen with grill and sink. This backyard oasis is both an entertainer’s dream and a personal escape. The private dock with boat lift and fish-cleaning station is your gateway to spontaneous boating adventures. Paddleboard the canal, bike the island, or stroll to the beach—this home makes it effortless to embrace the water-loving Florida lifestyle. A fenced yard provides peace of mind for pets and privacy alike. QUALITY & COMFORT, BUILT IN Hurricane-rated windows, elevated construction (main living at 10.5 feet), new HVAC, and fresh interior paint provide peace of mind. The 3-car split garage offers space for vehicles, hobbies, or storage, while no HOA means freedom to make it your own.
