About this home

Virtually Staged. One of Sarasota County's Most Unique Waterfront Properties on 15 Acres Along the Myakka River! Set behind the gates of Myakka River Trails, this exceptional riverfront estate offers 15 acres along the Myakka River, 6,539 square feet of living space, and a rare blend of privacy, scale, and refined indoor-outdoor living. A grand approach begins as you enter the property via a beautifully crafted stone bridge spanning tranquil ponds accented by elegant fountains leading to a circular drive, covered entry approach, and a striking front entrance that sets the tone for the property. Inside, high and cathedral ceilings, travertine and wood flooring, plantation shutters, and thoughtful architectural details create an elegant yet welcoming atmosphere. The split-bedroom floor plan offers excellent flow, with generous gathering areas and well-placed private spaces throughout the home. The impressive primary suite features two walk-in closets, a sitting area, direct lanai access, and a spacious ensuite bath with dual sinks, a garden tub, walk-in shower with bench seating, and abundant storage. The chef’s kitchen is designed for both everyday comfort and elevated entertaining, featuring stainless steel appliances, double ovens, a sub-zero refrigerator, two sinks, granite countertops, thermador gas stove, miele coffee maker, breakfast bar seating, wood cabinetry, recessed lighting, extensive storage, and a walk-in pantry. The adjoining family room makes a grand statement with a large stone fireplace, built-in shelving, and space for both casual dining and a breakfast nook.
