Remarkable, elevated waterfront residence ideally positioned in the prestigious Bird Key neighborhood. Custom built in 2005 by renowned builder Steve Murray of Murray Homes, it reflects exceptional craftsmanship, structural integrity, and enduring quality. Purposefully designed to maximize its setting on the wider Dolphin waterway, just a few homes from open Sarasota Bay, the property offers both protected dockage and quick bay access. With undeniable presence, the home stands tall and commanding, defined by strong architectural lines. A long, paved driveway, framed by six striking Royal Palms, enhances the sense of scale on arrival. Inside, soaring 23-foot ceilings immediately reveal the homes true volume. The thoughtfully designed floor plan allows the residence to live grandly while still offering intimate spaces for everyday comfort. The chefs kitchen, with breakfast bar and center island, flows seamlessly into the family room and informal dining area. A formal living room with decorative natural stone fireplace opens through French doors to the water facing terrace, while the formal dining room balances its dramatic ceiling height with an inviting and intimate ambiance. The first-floor primary suite offers terrace access, an en-suite bath, large walk-in closet, coffee bar, and beverage refrigerator. A solid wooden staircase leads upstairs to a second primary suite featuring dual walk-in closets, en-suite bath, coffee bar, beverage refrigerator, and a private water-facing terrace perfect for sunrise views over the canal and bay. An additional en-suite guest bedroom is privately situated upstairs. A fourth bedroom, currently used as an office with built-ins and a Murphy bed, opens through French doors to a waterfront terrace. Outdoor living is equally impressive in both scale and design with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, generous covered seating areas, fire pit, and a 30-foot pool with spillover spa and programmable lighting. The dock features 20,000 lb. and 5,000 lb. boat lifts with direct access to Sarasota Bay via the wide Dolphin waterway. The property includes two full two-car garages with direct interior access. With the added benefit of a new in 2025 roof, this residence is built strong, elevated, and designed to impress, combining commanding architecture with a prime boating location. Living on Bird Key places you minutes from downtown Sarasota, St. Armands Circle, Lido Beach, and the soon-to-reopen Bird Key Yacht Club, anticipated in 2026 as one of Sarasotas premier destinations for boating, tennis, dining, and social life.
