About this home
There are homes that feel renovated and there are homes that feel resolved.
Set along the quiet, tree lined stretch of South Washington Drive, this home carries the rare ease of a property that was thoughtfully reimagined and then simply lived in. Renovated approximately ten years ago, the work was executed to standards and sensibilities that remain entirely current today from construction methods to material choices to the way the home opens to light, water, and daily life. Nothing feels dated. Nothing feels forced. It feels quite simple and right.
While extensively renovated, the home presents today with the clarity and restraint of new construction.
The architecture is clean and intentional, allowing spaces to flow naturally from indoors to out. Wide folding doors dissolve the rear of the home, opening living areas to the pool and waterfront setting beyond, where mornings begin quietly and evenings settle in with peace and beauty. Upstairs, the perspective shifts offering elevated views across the surrounding neighborhood and toward the breathtaking skyline, with a rooftop deck that becomes a natural place to watch the light change at the end of the day.
Throughout the home, systems and finishes were selected not only for style, but for longevity and performance. The result is a home that looks as though it could have been completed yesterday, yet has already proven itself through time, weather, and use.
Outdoors, the property invites a slower rhythm: an easy transition from the primary suite to the pool, a private outdoor shower, and direct access to the water for boating, paddle or kayak, small moments that become daily rituals. This is a home that does not announce itself, but rewards those who understand it.
Located just steps to St. Armands Circle, the home is quietly connected to one of Sarasota’s most enduring coastal destinations known for its walkable charm, thoughtful boutiques, and some of the area’s most established restaurants. Lido Beach, the Ritz-Carlton Beach Club, St. Regis, and Longboat Key Club are all close at hand, while downtown Sarasota remains an easy drive away when the evening calls for it.
541 South Washington Drive is not about renovation or reinvention.
It is about arriving at something already complete.
