Property Description

Step into an architectural masterpiece that exudes modern luxury and sophistication. Designed by renowned architect Carl Abbott, this residence captivates from the moment you arrive, with an expansive travertine walkway leading to a Zen garden. Glass double doors open to a bright, expansive great room, where a wall of windows and pocketing sliders frame unobstructed water views. White-oak engineered floors and a marble fireplace create a warm, refined backdrop, complemented by a handcrafted paper-mâché chandelier made by a German artist. The Valcucine® kitchen is a showpiece of innovation and craftsmanship, with custom cabinetry that folds away to reveal or conceal what’s inside. Granite countertops outline the perimeter, and a sliding countertop section hides the Miele® induction cooktop or sink when not in use. The island features a granite top with a wood edge for dining, complemented by a top-tier appliance suite including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, wine cooler, and beverage drawers, along with a Miele® dishwasher, convection microwave, dual wall ovens, and espresso machine. Every detail is considered, from hidden outlets and spice racks to a walk-in pantry with professional-grade organization. The primary suite occupies the second level, accessed by a sleek staircase with glass rails or the elevator. This loft-style retreat features engineered white oak floors, a generous seating area, and sliders opening to a private upper terrace. A sliding wood wall adds privacy while preserving natural light. The en-suite bath showcases floor-to-ceiling tile, a freestanding soaking tub, oversized Roman shower, and a lighted floating vanity with quartz countertops. Two expansive custom walk-in closets complete the suite. Three additional bedrooms each offer unique design touches. One, currently a media room, opens to a private terrace. Guest baths feature walk-in showers and custom vanities, while a dedicated fitness studio provides space for wellness and recreation. Outdoor living is equally inspired, with a travertine pool deck, covered and open seating areas, a boat dock with lift, and a heated pool and spa. Sunshades, an outdoor shower, and a spacious lawn complete the experience. The rooftop deck, accessible by elevator, serves as the ultimate entertaining space with panoramic views and a wet bar. This home is equipped with a three-stop hydraulic elevator, full smart home integration, triple-pane hurricane-rated windows and doors, a whole-house generator and water filtration system, central vacuum, architectural linear HVAC grilles, and in-floor outlets. Originally completed in 2002, the residence was completely rebuilt from the concrete pad and bearing walls in 2016, including all electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, rooftop deck, hurricane glass, appliances, fixtures, flooring, pool and spa systems, and smart technology. San Remo Estates occupies a premier position at the heart of Sarasota, tucked just before the north bridge to Siesta Key. This coveted waterfront enclave offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience, placing residents minutes from the iconic white-sand beaches and village of Siesta Key, the vibrant shops and restaurants of Southside Village, and the cultural energy of Downtown Sarasota.
