About this home

Tucked inside the private enclave of Siesta Cove, this beautifully updated island home offers that rare blend of privacy, space, and an easy walk to world-famous Siesta Key Beach. Set on an oversized 0.35-acre lot, the property features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and more than 2,500 square feet of bright, open living space designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beam detail anchor the main living area, where expansive sliders open to a screened lanai and private saltwater pool framed by mature tropical landscaping. Porcelain tile runs throughout, creating a clean, cohesive feel that fits perfectly with relaxed island living. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, generous prep space, and a built-in wine refrigerator, flowing naturally into multiple living and dining areas. Whether you’re hosting friends after a beach day or enjoying a quiet evening at home, the layout simply works. The primary suite feels tucked away and private, complete with an updated bath featuring a rain shower and elevated finishes. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for guests, family, or a dedicated office space. Impact windows and doors provide added peace of mind, and the home did not experience water intrusion during recent hurricanes. Additional features include a fireplace for cooler winter nights, an interior laundry room, circular driveway, and attached two-car garage. Siesta Cove is ideally positioned between Midnight Pass Road and the Intracoastal Waterway, just a short stroll to the powder-soft quartz sands of Siesta Key Beach. Here, mornings start with beach walks, afternoons are spent boating or biking the island, and evenings wind down with sunset skies and dinner in the Village. This is not just a home — it’s the kind of island living people move here for.
