and reimagined in 1992, the home embraces an open-concept floor plan that
harmoniously connects the indoors with the stunning natural surroundings. Floor-toceiling

see. Set on nearly half-an-acre of gated and fenced land, this legacy estate boasts an
impressive 120 feet of direct waterfront on North Sarasota Bay. A dream come true for
