8218 SANDERLING RD, Sarasota, FL 34242

Welcome to unparalleled tropical splendor in the prestigious Sanderling Club, the only gated single-family home community on gorgeous Siesta Key. Sprawling from the shimmering waters of the Gulf of Mexico to the serenity of Heron Lagoon, this world-class, 3.64-acre property presents a rare opportunity in one of the region’s most sought-after destinations. A winding drive with towering palms leads to the grand façade of this expansive three-story, five-bedroom estate. The elegant floor plan of the approximately 8,638-sq.-ft. main home is ideal for a sophisticated but comfortable lifestyle, where walls of glass invite the stunning beauty of its surrounds inside. The dramatic foyer flows to the spacious living areas, which include formal living and dining rooms, a large family room, a safe room, and an indoor sauna and steam room. Built in 2007, the two-bedroom guest home features approximately 1,986 square feet, two full baths and a dock on Heron Lagoon. The well-manicured grounds include 304’ of beachfront, 305’ of Heron Lagoon frontage, a private clay tennis court, an open pool and spa, and a detached RV garage. Members of The Sanderling Club enjoy a lifestyle distinct from the hustle and bustle of Siesta Key, as community amenities include 24-hour security, a bay-side marina, 2 Har-Tru tennis courts, cozy waterfront cabanas and more. The community centerpiece is the Paul Rudolph-designed clubhouse, poised directly on the Gulf to showcase sweeping views from the large patio and grill area.
