The home’s wood floors have a story all their own. They were reclaimed from wood used at the Sears Tower in Chicago. The knotty pine trim, crafted by Roberts Hardwood Lumber with a custom-cut blade, reflects an updated style of the Eastlake style so popular back in the 1800’s. The chef inspired kitchen features professional appliances including Viking and Sub Zero, surrounded by custom cabinetry and exotic granite and butcher block countertops. It is big and bright, with highbeamed ceilings. The breakfast area opens to a pergola covered organic herb garden featuring basil, cilantro, peppers and rosemary. The vast family room is for entertaining with a custom bar and wood burning flagstone fireplace. The home’s dining room is where the western theme reaches its peak. A chandelier from Colorado, crafted from elk and caribou antlers, fills the room with light, reflecting off a massive rope-trimmed dining table and a custom-built hutch with pulls fashioned from antlers.
The home graciously opens to the expansive outdoor living area with refreshing pool and spa, covered living spaces and wood burning fireplace. You don’t have to be an equestrian to relish the Polo Club lifestyle. Enjoy the best of rural living minutes to world class beaches and shopping, the Lakewood Ranch Country Club, golf, tennis, and highly rated private and public schools, and of course, The Sarasota Polo Club.

http://bit.ly/13bwDQQ Spanish Point Shores is a unique opportunity in a historically significant neighborhood rich in character. The properties along the bay front on Palmetto Avenue were developed to maintain this areas unique feel of the old Florida aesthetic with enormous canopy Oak trees beautiful architecture and rolling lawns, it is an aesthetic that is truly one of a kind for Sarasota bay front properties. This, the last of the properties developed as part of the Spanish Point shores enclave has a special set of features that make it particularly interesting. The neighborhood begins to take on its charm immediately after leaving Tamiami Trail and pulling on to Webb Street which is named after John Webb the man who gave Osprey its name and established a winter resort for northerners on Little Sarasota Bay in the late 1800’s. As you drive down Webb Street this area takes on a very special feel with large protected canopy oak trees covering the
roads giving this quiet neighborhood a nice old Florida feel. At the northern part of the neighborhood a short walk from the property is the Spanish Point Historical Park. Spanish Point has a deep history dating back to the time of the native people through to the time that Bertha Palmer made it her winter home adorning the massive property with lavish formal gardens and lawns while at the same time maintaining its historical significance which preceded her. This large bay front tract sits at 1.19 acres which slopes gently from Palmetto Avenue down to the protected waters of Little Sarasota Bay. Of note is a large basin with boat shelter and adjacent dock, something that is difficult if not impossible to build these days, a relic from a by gone time for the future owners enjoyment. The property is also conveniently located 1.5 miles from Pine View School, a nationally acclaimed learning institution. Home to be constructed by Perrone Construction.
