Property Description

ONE OF THE LARGEST GULFFRONT ESTATES OFFERING 249' OF STUNNING GULF VIEWS | LIDO SHORES | SARASOTA | Situated within the prestigious enclave of Lido Shores in Sarasota, this exceptional estate seamlessly marries architectural pedigree with unmatched natural beauty, offering the perfect balance of accessibility—just minutes from the vibrant St. Armands Circle and dynamic downtown Sarasota—all with complete seclusion and privacy. This is far more than a luxury residence; it represents a legacy property conceived by one of Southwest Florida's most acclaimed architects, destined to endure as one of Lido Key's most distinguished Gulf-front estates for generations to come. Perched on the coveted Gulf of Mexico, this extraordinary estate represents the pinnacle of coastal luxury, designed by celebrated architect Clifford M. Scholz, founder of CMSA Scholz, Oswald & Shaffer whose vision transforms this super-sized pristine Gulf frontage estate into an architectural symphony of sophistication and modern elegance. This distinguished 6,862-square-foot residence commands stunning panoramic views of the Gulf, standing as one of Sarasota's most coveted coastal properties where thoughtful scale and precise attention to detail converge in perfect harmony. The property is strategically elevated for optimal protection from storms (no water intrusion from storms). The interior unfolds as a masterclass in refined design, with soaring vaulted ceilings, curated designer lighting, formal living and dining rooms framed by floor-to-ceiling glass with panoramic water views, generous gathering spaces, a sun-drenched breakfast nook, a versatile bonus flex room extends living possibilities just steps from the resort-style pool. At the heart of daily life lies a custom culinary masterpiece, anchored by an elegant La Cornue range and a matching commercial vent hood, a large butler's kitchen, and a built-in bar for ease of prep and service for bespoke, large gatherings of family, friends or business associates. The gourmet kitchen's impressive arsenal includes a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, Bosch oven, Dacor microwave, and wine refrigeration. The residence's five bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and two powder rooms provide luxurious accommodations for family and guests, including two distinctive guest suites featuring charming loft spaces. The serene primary suite serves as a private sanctuary, while two dedicated office spaces offer quiet retreats for productivity. The home's wellness amenities include a traditional sauna and state-of-the-art infrared light therapy room, bringing spa-inspired luxury into daily life. Throughout the residence, sophisticated architectural details, including an elegant custom-crafted staircase and two inviting fireplaces, reinforce the home's exceptional character and superior craftsmanship. The outdoor living experience unfolds as a private resort oasis, where a stunning pool with cascading waterfall features becomes the centerpiece of the professionally designed landscaping that embraces and enhances the spectacular Gulf-front setting. The property's distinguished presence is defined by Turkish white shell stone perimeter walls and elegant gates that provide both privacy and architectural gravitas. Generous grounds offer exceptional potential for expansion or additional structures, this remarkable property presents the rare opportunity to create a truly private family compound.
