320 S Shore Dr, Sarasota

Positioned at the apex of Stephens Point is an award winning architectural achievement...a beacon to modern design, with sharp planes and high drama that offers infinite water views and stunning sunsets over North Sarasota Bay. Completely transformed in 1992 by award-winning architect Michael Shepherd, the residence is a testament to open concept design, where natural light flows freely within the space bringing the outside into the home. A masterfully executed living room is expanded by a back "wall" of sliding glass floor-to-ceiling panels which open to the lap pool and Sarasota Bay beyond. The open air feel to the home is easily transformed as mahogany panels slide out to close the dining room from the kitchen and two sandblasted glass doors separate the kitchen from the living area. A large statement kitchen, with views of Sarasota Bay, features granite counter tops, elegant black cabinetry and an expansive tucked away breakfast nook that could also be utilized as a work space/buffet. The spacious master bedroom wing and attached bath boast bay views. A second bedroom with ample custom closets plus an office face the East and both fill with glorious morning light. The 3rd guest bedroom/en suite bath flank the opposite side of the home, affording privacy and Bay views. An attached 3 car garage, 120 feet of water frontage, an expansive dock with 18,000 lb. boat lift, and close proximity to downtown Sarasota/world class beaches are the finishing touches to this idyllic bay front retreat.
