$4,400,000 - 1703 Bayshore Rd, Nokomis

Rarely can one say "This home has it all" but in this case, it is justified. Tucked quietly away on the shores of Sarasota Bay and the ICW sits this impressive estate. While every amenity is in place to satisfy the most discriminating buyer, one can't help but feel at ease and relaxed when passing through the gate and onto the gorgeous grounds of this nearly 2-acre resort-like setting. This isn't about show... this is about living...this is about family and friends...this is about Florida and its natural beauty. Perfectly poised on some of Sarasota's best boating water with easy access to the Venice Jetties & the Gulf of Mexico makes this a bit of paradise. Boaters will immediately be delighted by the dock, 2 boat lifts and accommodations for large vessels. The exceptional main home lacks nothing one would hope to find: gorgeous travertine and hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, expertly crafted millwork and impressive architectural details, high-end appliances and lovely, generous living spaces which include 4 bedroom suites, office, bonus room and wine cellar. The outdoor spaces are idyllic with huge pool, fully-equipped summer kitchen and a third floor veranda with expansive views of the surrounding waterway and fabulous views of the Gulf. What a perfect place to enjoy a breathtaking sunset and wind down after a tiring day of play. There is a gracious guesthouse, 2 serene koi ponds, 9-hole putting green, 12-car motor salon with RV area and hookups (in addition to the 3-car attached garage) and more.
