Where the first light of dawn shimmers across the Intracoastal and the glow of sunset melts into the Gulf, this is a once-in-a-generation Gulf-to-Bay estate of uncompromising beauty and distinction. Gracefully positioned on approximately 1.1 acres along the gated north end of Manasota Key, this masterfully curated waterfront compound embodies refined coastal living with private beach access and a bayfront dock and lift. The property offers a balance of serenity and an elevated boating lifestyle. Expertly built by KIMCO and created by Suncoast, the main residence spans 5,839 sf of living space, and the guest house offers 1676 sf. Constructed of concrete at a high elevation with impact-rated windows, with no water intrusion in the main house. Car enthusiasts will appreciate accommodations for 9 vehicles. A tropical, fenced approach leads to an elegant welcome with a private courtyard entry, tranquil fountain, stone steps and bespoke wrought-iron doors. Inside, marble inlays, curated finishes, and sweeping Gulf-to-bay vistas. The great room is a dramatic expression of scale and artistry, crowned by a soaring 35-foot Cypress ceiling, and a two-story curved wall of glass framing panoramic Gulf views. Baccarat chandeliers illuminate the space, anchored by a striking see-through fireplace. The adjacent living salon continues the narrative with a hand-carved marble fireplace, rich mahogany ceiling detail, and bespoke millwork. The culinary suite is both functional and exquisite, showcasing dual islands, exotic stone surfaces, custom cabinetry, paneled Sub-Zero refrigeration, a range hood with brass accents, a Wolf cooktop and double ovens, and a paneled dishwasher, complemented by a butler’s pantry and designer laundry. Formal dining unfolds against sweeping Gulf views. A refined, first-floor guest suite offers exceptional comfort. Two office suites, each with the ability to serve as guest accommodations, offer distinct character:one light-filled with elegant detailing and custom built-ins, the other richly appointed with wood paneling, coffered ceilings, and an onyx-clad full bath. The primary suite is a private sanctuary with a Gulf-front Juliet balcony, intricate cypress ceiling, and a spa-inspired bath featuring Waterford chandeliers, a soaking tub, exquisite marble flooring, and mother-of-pearl adorning the ceiling. An elegant and boutique-style dressing gallery completes the suite. Outdoor living is elevated to an art form with expansive Gulf-front terraces beneath a rotunda-style copper roof, cypress ceilings, and travertine flooring. The pool with LED lighting features a sun shelf, lounging areas, a full bath, and outdoor shower. A fully equipped outdoor kitchen pavilion showcases a custom copper hood, natural stone surfaces, appliances, and a fireplace. The guest house offers unobstructed Intracoastal views, a full kitchen, living room, 2 baths, and a private bedroom, with expansive pocketing doors opening to a scenic balcony. The ground level provides space for vehicles, and a half bath with direct dock access. Boating amenities include approximately 6' of deep water, a 10,000-pound lift, and an updated dock. Modern systems have been meticulously integrated, an elevator, a generator, propane, Starlink internet, intercom, and well for irrigation. Tropical landscaping and a preserved Cuban Laurel enhance the private setting. A rare legacy estate offering architectural excellence, resilience, and an unparalleled Gulf-to-Bay lifestyle.
