The interior spaces are bathed in natural light, with an intelligently designed floor plan that flows seamlessly, making it ideal for both everyday living and hosting gatherings. Engineered hardwood floors anchor the home with warmth and durability, while the custom kitchen stands as a centerpiece of both form and function, offering premium finishes and top-tier appliances. With four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, the home balances spaciousness with intimacy. A highlight is the serene sunroom, framed by vaulted ceilings adorned with custom wood accents, a space that invites you to relax while overlooking the lush surroundings. Step outside to a truly breathtaking outdoor sanctuary. The expansive entertaining area features a fully equipped summer kitchen, a covered dining space with remote-controlled hurricane shades, and a large pool and spa. With 100 feet of private waterfront along a deep-water canal, this home is a boater’s dream, complete with a new boat lift and effortless access to Sarasota Bay. Further elevating its appeal, The Banyan House offers peace of mind with impact-rated windows and doors throughout.
