7208 POINT OF ROCKS RD, Sarasota, FL 34242

Timeless design and panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico on a secluded beach make this newer coastal home one to cherish for generations. This elegant beachfront residence is perfectly situated on nearly one acre in the historic Point of Rocks neighborhood at the southern tip of award winning Siesta Key Beach. It is an artistic use of an "Old Florida" site where majestic oaks, lush tropical landscaping, a charming cottage (Circa 1920), French-inspired Gulf-side pool, and the main residence blend seamlessly to create the perfect island retreat. The main residence, custom designed to emphasize natural light and sweeping Gulf vistas, consists of 5 en-suite bedrooms, with a master bedroom on each floor; an open layout; wide-planked wood floors; plantation shutters; granite and marble finishes; cathedral ceilings and large, private Gulf-side balconies. The interior's sea-inspired palette, enhanced by whimsical accents, provides an aura of tranquility instantly connecting you with the beach and surrounding environment. Generously sized living areas, a music room, and a 600 sq ft loft provide both an abundance of privacy and room for entertaining family and guests. A separate, 3 bedroom guest cottage adjoins the main residence via a stone and jasmine covered walkway, and provides an additional 1,100 sq ft with numerous options for use as a studio, private retreat, or caretaker's home. A beautiful property in a coveted location.
