Description

Welcome to ‘The Retreat at Tidewood’, a boater’s paradise nestled in one of Sarasota’s most desirable and secluded waterfront communities. Imagine living just minutes from downtown, fine dining, and shopping, all without the hassle of an HOA. This home offers the perfect blend of convenience and tranquility for those who love life on the water. Elevated 12 feet, this residence ensures peace of mind protection from flooding. Step inside to discover an updated gourmet kitchen with custom cabinetry and premium finishes, a spacious living and dining room, and a luxurious master suite with Venetian Plastering and his-and-hers closets. Every room on the ground floor opens directly to the pool, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow to over 2,500 sq. ft. of screened outdoor living — perfect for entertaining or relaxing in total privacy. For the avid boater, the property features a concrete seawall for easy canoe or kayak launching, making it effortless to explore the serene Intercoastal Waterway. Additionally, a boat yard just a short distance away accommodates larger watercraft and offers concierge services, ensuring your boating adventures are always within reach. Upstairs, a private “in-law suite” is accessible by elevator or stairs and includes three flexible rooms, full bath with tub/shower combo, kitchenette, a large walk-in closet, room to add an additional bathroom, and a screened porch overlooking the tranquil waterway, Siesta Key, and timeless sunsets. Surrounded by protected mangroves, the views are as peaceful as they are timeless. Designed for multi-generational living or hosting guests with ease, this home blends thoughtful functionality with waterfront luxury. Its location combines seclusion and convenience — tucked away in a peaceful community, yet close to everything Sarasota has to offer. The adjacent lot could also be purchased for additional acreage, offering even more space and potential. The ‘Retreat at Tidewood’ offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of paradise. This unique experience awaits you with the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, coastal beauty, and a lifestyle tailored for those who cherish the water.
