About this home

Perched at an impressive 19+ foot elevation, this Modern Mediterranean masterpiece offers a rare blend of architectural significance and waterfront tranquility. Designed by the renowned Thorning Little, the residence spans nearly 6,200 square feet under roof, combining an immensely robust concrete structure with the warmth of high-end finishes. Inside, the craftsmanship is undeniable, featuring solid Brazilian cherry floors, trim, and doors, complemented by Italian porcelain tile and real stone accents.

The home was built for those who love to host. The entire first floor functions as a premier entertainment hub, featuring a full bar, pool bath, and a versatile apartment suite that flows seamlessly to the outdoors. Transitioning between spaces is effortless thanks to 24 linear feet of pocketing glass sliders and 57 feet of floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the water. Upstairs features 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, an office/nursery, and a large 4th room, which offers oodles of flexibility for a large family or entertainer. Double the fun with a giant balcony overlooking the sunset on the water. Outside, the oversized pool is surrounded by expansive decking, providing a sprawling footprint for sun-drenched gatherings.

Beyond the aesthetics, the home is engineered for longevity. The R-30 aerated autoclaved concrete walls and eight-inch thick floors create a fortress-like environment, while the high elevation keeps flood insurance remarkably stable at just $310 per year.

Life here is defined by the water overlooking the sunset. Located near the acclaimed Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve, the property includes a floating dock perfect for an afternoon of fishing. With the ability to add a lift and accommodate boats up to 28 feet, this is a true gateway to the Gulf. Despite this secluded feel, you remain perfectly positioned for a quick commute to St. Pete or Bradenton, offering the best of the Florida lifestyle without compromise.
