Description

Fully renovated mid-century gem in the charming and highly coveted Indian Beach Sapphire Shores neighborhood of Sarasota. This exceptional three-bedroom, two-bathroom home has been lovingly preserved and thoughtfully restored with a strong emphasis on period-appropriate mid-century design and timeless style. Original terrazzo floors sparkle throughout the main living areas, honoring the home’s architectural roots. The fully renovated kitchen features new high-end appliances and blends seamlessly with the home’s classic aesthetic. The former Florida room has been transformed into comfortable year-round living space with permanent climate control, with the design anchored by an authentic vintage 1960s Preway wood-burning cone fireplace — a true statement piece. High-end mid-century light fixtures are showcased throughout, including multiple authentic Herman Miller pieces. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof (2023), brand-new HVAC system and ductwork (2024), and a new solid wood privacy fence (2024). All bedrooms offer sizable closets, and the large zero-scaped front yard ensures beauty with minimal maintenance. The expansive backyard is a private retreat, featuring a generous paver patio and ample space for a pool or future additions. A newly installed barrel sauna and cold plunge create a spa-like sanctuary along the side yard, with convenient access from the principal suite. The true highlight of the home is the architect-designed principal bedroom and bathroom suite, completed in 2025 — an incredibly rare feature for this neighborhood and era. Designed as a private oasis, the light-filled bedroom includes a picture window and charming window seat, thoughtfully separated from the two guest bedrooms on the opposite wing of the home. The spacious en-suite bathroom is professionally interior designed and features high-end fixtures, a large walk-in shower, a freestanding spa tub, double vanity, and a walk-in closet. An exterior door provides direct access to the outdoor spa area for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Ideally located, this home is within a short distance to multiple beautiful waterfront parks and the renowned The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art. Just five minutes to downtown Sarasota and ten minutes to the pristine beaches of Lido Key, you’ll enjoy the very best of Sarasota’s natural beauty and vibrant cultural scene — all from the comfort of your exquisitely restored mid-century home in one of the city’s most beloved neighborhoods.
