Property Description

Exquisite Sarasota bayfront estate and iconic modern design with unmatched views. At the apex of Stephens Point, this exceptional property offers one of the most desired locations in Sarasota, with panoramic, 180-degree views of North Sarasota Bay, sparkling downtown lights and architectural beauty of the Ringling Bridge. Whether you're captivated by vibrant sunset skies or tranquil waters below, this home delivers a living experience that is simply unparalleled. Recognized as one of the most architecturally significant homes in the area, the former Baker Residence stands as a beacon of modern design. Designed by the award-winning architect Michael Shepherd and reimagined in 1992, the home embraces an open-concept floor plan that harmoniously connects indoors with stunning natural surroundings. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light, offering breathtaking vistas from almost every room. From the moment you step into the all-glass foyer and pass the sleek privacy wall, you’ll be captivated by the incredible water views that stretch as far as the eye can 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 boating enthusiasts, water sports aficionados and fishing lovers, the private dock provides effortless access to the bay for all your aquatic adventures. Nature enthusiasts will be equally delighted, with dolphins, marine life and a variety of bird species gracing the waters just outside your door. This stunning residence has undergone extensive updates in the last four years, ensuring the ideal blend of modern comforts and timeless design. Recent improvements include a new metal roof, impact-resistant glass windows and sliding doors, retractable Kevlar storm panels, and a completely refinished pool with contemporary glass tile. Inside, the gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring granite countertops, mahogany paneling and unobstructed views of the bay, making it an ideal space for cooking and entertaining. The spacious owner's suite is a serene retreat, with an indoor/outdoor spa, ideal for unwinding while taking in the waterfront vistas. The property also offers the ultimate in convenience and privacy, with a fully fenced perimeter, a Wi-Fi enabled gate, and a three-car garage with an epoxied floor. The lush front landscape is anchored by a stately banyan tree, adding a touch of grandeur to the estate. At the rear, the designer pool and expansive pool deck invite relaxation and entertaining, offering ample space for gatherings, while you enjoy the full sweep of Sarasota Bay views, second to none. Whether you're seeking a peaceful sanctuary to call home or an entertainer's paradise with incomparable vistas, this iconic Sarasota estate checks every box. Experience the beauty, serenity and exclusivity of one of the finest waterfront homes in the area. Minor flooding affected this home, according to the owner. It is being sold as-is.
