Florida, Ranch

Beyond the gates of the exclusive Bird Key, this exceptional residence presents a rare opportunity within one of Sarasota’s most coveted island enclaves, where privacy, prestige, and timeless elegance define the lifestyle. Poised on nearly one-third of an acre, the move-in-ready home showcases three bedrooms, three baths, and a private office, all thoughtfully composed to evoke an atmosphere of refined island sophistication and effortless luxury. Ideally positioned between the cosmopolitan allure of St. Armands Circle and the cultural vibrancy of downtown Sarasota, the home enjoys effortless access to Lido Beach, Sarasota Memorial Hospital, SRQ Airport, and the newly revitalized Marie Selby Botanical Gardens—placing world-class amenities moments from your doorstep. Designed for elegant entertaining and relaxed luxury, the open-concept interior is bathed in natural light and seamlessly transitions to the outdoor living spaces through expansive sliders. The gourmet kitchen is both striking and functional, showcasing a grand center island, induction cooktop, stainless steel appliances, custom wood cabinetry, and secondary sink—perfectly suited for hosting on any scale. The primary suite is a private sanctuary featuring French doors to the pool terrace, a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub and separate shower, and a boutique-style dressing experience with a walk-in closet plus three additional double closets. Guest accommodations are equally impressive, including a spacious bedroom with a concealed Murphy bed and pool access, and a dramatic third suite with cathedral ceiling, private bath, and French doors opening to its own patio retreat. Thoughtful enhancements include impact-rated windows and doors, a tile roof (2013), crown molding, plantation shutters, fresh interior and exterior paint, a new No-see-um screening, and integrated smart-home technology. The thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan provides exceptional privacy, while a refined office and den—appointed with pocket doors and bespoke built-ins—create an ideal setting for both focused work and quiet relaxation. Outdoors, the grounds unfold as a tranquil sanctuary framed by mature landscaping and a magnificent banyan tree that becomes a sculptural centerpiece when illuminated at night. The fenced yard provides both serenity and seclusion, completing this private island haven. Optional membership to the Bird Key Yacht Club offers an elevated social and recreational lifestyle with marina access, tennis, fitness, dining, and a vibrant calendar of events, with an exciting new clubhouse and waterfront dining debuting in late 2026. This is more than a residence—it is an address of distinction, where timeless elegance meets effortless Sarasota living.
