Property Description
Discover a rare blend of tropical tranquility and vibrant waterfront living on Siesta Key. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this impeccably maintained Lee Wetherington home exudes warmth and ease from the moment you arrive. Rich wood floors, soaring cathedral ceilings, and sunlit rooms create a bright, welcoming atmosphere that feels both luxurious and relaxed.
Thoughtfully crafted in timeless Key West style, the home sits along a navigable canal with a private dock and boat lift—perfect for spontaneous sunset cruises, paddleboarding, or quick access to the Intracoastal and Gulf. Built in 2015 and presenting like new, it has been lovingly cared for and shows beautifully, offering the peace of mind of elevated construction (main living at 10.5 feet above sea level) and hurricane-rated windows.
The open-concept layout flows seamlessly from the chef's kitchen to a spa-like primary suite, with ensuite guest rooms designed for comfort and privacy. Step outside to your heated saltwater pool, spa, and summer kitchen, ideal for effortless entertaining. The fully fenced yard is perfect for pets, while the 3-car garage with custom built-ins adds functionality to the home's graceful style.
Located just a short walk to Siesta Key Beach, Village restaurants, and boutique shops, the setting offers the best of both worlds—convenient access to everything, yet nestled in a peaceful, no-outlet neighborhood with a true sense of community.
With new HVAC, fresh interior paint, no HOA, and the freedom to live your own island lifestyle, this home offers not just a place to live—but a place to truly belong.
