Property Description
Discover the ease of elevated island living in this beautifully updated 3-bed + den, 3.5-bath Key West–style private residence. Built in 2015 by Lee Wetherington and enhanced with over $500K in upgrades, this turnkey, no-HOA home is nestled on a wide canal in coveted Sara Sands — just minutes from Siesta Key Beach (#1 in the U.S., #3 globally in 2025).
Wake to dolphin sightings, spend afternoons boating from your private dock with 13,000 lb boat lift, and wind down with golden Gulf Coast sunsets — all in a quiet, walkable, and bike-friendly neighborhood with no through traffic

• Chef's kitchen with Thermador appliances, propane stove, quartz counters, and walk-in pantry
• Main-level primary suite with spa bath, walk-in closet, and en suite laundry
• Two guest suites upstairs with private baths
• Fresh paint throughout, new HVAC, hurricane-rated windows, and tankless propane water heater
Step outside to:
• Covered lanai, heated saltwater pool + spa
• Summer kitchen with built-in grill
• Private dock on WIDE CANAL with direct Gulf access via the Intracoastal Waterway
• 10.5-ft elevated construction for peace of mind
• 3-car split garage for cars, golf cart, hobbies, and organized storage
Additional features include a whole-house generator and propane utilities for reliable comfort.
