Welcome to your own slice of paradise—an elevated, Key West–style home where mornings begin with dolphin sightings and evenings end in golden Gulf Coast sunsets. Custom-built in 2015 by Lee Wetherington and enhanced with over $500K in upgrades, this beautifully updated, turnkey residence blends modern comfort with island elegance.
A PRIVATE, SERENE SETTING
Tucked at the quiet end of a cul-de-sac in highly desirable Sara Sands, this elevated home offers privacy just moments from Siesta Key Beach—ranked #1 in the U.S. and #3 globally in 2025—and all the charm of Siesta Village. Whether strolling to dinner, biking the island, or paddleboarding from your dock, this location makes it easy to live the Florida dream.
INSPIRED DESIGN & NATURAL FLOW
Inside, discover 12-ft ceilings, rich wood floors, and an open-concept layout that unites the living, dining, and chef’s kitchen—outfitted with Thermador appliances, quartz countertops, and a walk-in pantry. The interiors invite connection and retreat, perfect for both casual mornings and elegant entertaining.
PRIMARY SUITE RETREAT + PRIVATE GUEST SPACES
The main-level primary suite offers spa-like serenity and abundant space, while two upstairs guest suites with ensuite baths ensure comfort and privacy for visitors.
INDOOR-OUTDOOR LIVING AT ITS BEST
Glass doors open to a covered lanai, heated saltwater pool and spa, and a full summer kitchen with built-in grill and prep sink. Your private dock with boat lift and fish-cleaning station opens to Gulf waters—ready for your next adventure.
PEACE OF MIND & PRACTICAL LUXURY
Hurricane-rated windows, new HVAC, fresh interior paint, and 10.5-ft elevated construction ensure durability and ease. A 3-car split garage provides room for hobbies, storage, or a golf cart. With no HOA, you’ll enjoy freedom to live your way.
A SMART CONDO ALTERNATIVE
For those seeking luxury island living with more space, more privacy, and fewer restrictions, this is the ideal alternative to condo life.
