I Want a Beach House So Badly I Could Squat: Sarasota Stealing My Heart!

Share News:

It’s time. Time to start thinking about getting to the beach. I just came back from skiing, love it, but need some surf to soothe my bruises. Sarasota is the perfect spot in Florida to do just that: Gulf coast, mid-state, total sunshine. This property stands out among the highest of the high end on 113-feet of shoreline at the tip of Harbor Drive: 1368 Harbor.

A timeless contemporary design of 4484 square feet created by the previous owner/architect in 1992, you get walls of glass, raised Tahitian tongue-in-groove wooden ceilings, flagstone and wood floors, a knocked out kitchen with everything the gourmet chef needs, and separate spa baths in the oversized, elegant master suite. Four bedrooms, four and a half baths, one powder. Huge closets, too, though they won’t hold more than a teensy bikini or two. And talk about entertaining: large decks overlook a private pool area and covered entertainment area for 100-plus guests. They can step right onto your 50-foot yacht from the top class dock. Get ready to be the most popular person in Dallas: this home has a separate, self-contained guest house, four-car parking and tropical gardens on a .34 acre lot that will make you dream of Jungle Gardenia. Sigh. Only $3,950,000 US dollars…
