## Description

### Agent Description
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Siesta Key, island living at its best. Welcome to your waterside home where you’ll enjoy a carefree, tropical lifestyle all year long. This home has been nicely maintained along with an extensive addition completed in 2015. The original home included two guest bedrooms with adjoining Jack and Jill bath plus a primary suite. The 1,200-square-foot addition included an oversized en suite with double sinks and vanity area, walk-in closet, three-headed walk-in shower plus a wall of linen closets. The addition also included a flex room used as an office, plus a 22-by-20-foot pantry/laundry area. A truck-friendly spacious garage with room to accommodate four vehicles and 8-foot high garage door was also part of the expansion. New can lighting installed in living room, dining area and kitchen in 2016 along with a new generous-sized kitchen island. The entire home has low maintenance polished concrete flooring that flows seamlessly throughout. Walls of sliding glass doors surround the oversized screened-in lanai and oversized pool. It’s easy to open up the entire house to the great outdoors when entertaining friends and family. For the boating enthusiast, the home sits on a canal with direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway and offers a 27-foot dock equipped with a 10,000-pound boat lift plus a dual jet ski lift. This home exemplifies the best of island living and don’t forget, world famous Siesta Key Beach is only a short distance away.
