PRICE IMPROVEMENT on this exquisite home also, now being offered fully furnished, ensuring a seamless transition for new owners and providing instant enjoyment to create memories for a lifetime. Sellers have taken proactive measures by contracting and paying for a new roof, even though the existing roof has an estimated 5-7 years of life remaining. This enhancement provides added peace of mind and long term value. Furthermore, the home has shown no signs of water intrusion following the recent tropical storm, highlighting its robust construction.
Welcome to your sanctuary on the famous Siesta Key, located on Big Pass at the entrance to the Gulf of Mexico. This extraordinary timeless residence offers beach access, boat dock, and, of course, those incredible views that never go out of style. You can have it all in this exquisite home!

This home is the epitome of "Location! Location! Location!" Brilliantly designed and lavishly appointed, it showcases the very best of everything as far as the eye can see. Imagine instant enjoyment, with coveted sunrises, sunsets, and the serenity of the island living in this exquisite waterfront estate on the coveted north end of Siesta Key steps away from beach access.

Step inside and be greeted by the stunning vistas you've only dreamed about, and embrace every day with the 5-star lifestyle that Sarasota and her islands are famous for, including the world-renowned crystal white sands of Siesta Beach. The open-concept living area, complete with high-end appliances, offers the perfect space for intimate gatherings and grand entertaining.

A private elevator whisks you between levels, while high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling impact glass windows frame an expansive 180-degree view that seems to go on forever. Every generous bedroom--five in total--has an ensuite bathroom, allowing you and your guests to bask in natural light and gorgeous views from every corner of the home.

Waterfront properties like 3500 Bayou Louise Lane are truly a rarity, making this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a true gem. One of Architect Thorning Little's most transcendent designs, this home boasts a distinctive symmetry, beautifully balanced by the ever-changing canvas of Big Pass and the Gulf of Mexico.

Nearly every room offers breathtaking views of the Caribbean turquoise waters, providing a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. With over $3 million in upgrades since 2020, no detail has been overlooked. Bespoke finishes adorn every room, including Italian plaster, book-matched Calcutta Gold slab marble, hand-carved limestone, a hand-finished Clive Christian kitchen, custom-designed authentic wood floors, a Palm Beach Designer ceiling, and a custom American walnut library.

Thoroughly modern and automated, the home features Lutron lighting, a hardwired camera and security system, and commercial-quality Wi-Fi in every room for seamless coverage. The amenities continue with a four-car garage, a 40x20 pool and spa, a 24K lbs. beamless boat lift, three fireplaces (outdoor, library, and living room), ample storage, two Tesla high-speed charging stations, a cellular gate call box, and Seura TV mirrors in the master and in-law bathroom suites. Programmable motorized window blinds complete the package, adding a touch of luxury and convenience to every day.
