Nestled on 1.1 acres of pristine bayfront along Sarasota Bay, Etowah stands as a timeless icon of Sarasota's rich heritage. Originally built in 1925, this two-story Mediterranean revival estate spans over 6,500 square feet, offering captivating views of the bay while being 10-minutes away from Sarasota's downtown. Following an extensive year-long renovation, Etowah has been meticulously restored to its former glory, honoring its storied past with an unparalleled attention to detail. Previously in 1992, local architect Frank Folson Smith added a large extension to the West-side of the home, including an extensive master bedroom, bar-area and great room.

Adjacent, the dining room, surrounded by windows crafted from original glass sourced from the nearby Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey, sets the stage for entertaining, comfortably accommodating a table for 12 guests.For the culinary enthusiast, the modern kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, a SubZero refrigerator, and every amenity required for a master chef. Plus, the eat-in kitchen makes the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee. Moving to the west-side of the home, the owners suite and great room are flanked on either side of a spacious courtyard. Making this a true destination for indoor and outdoor living and entertaining. The owners suite features his and hers walk-in closets, bay views and a spacious bath. The second-level of the home features a second primary bedroom with a wood burning fireplace, views of the bay and plenty of closet space.

The property's covered boathouse, a designated historical gem, adds a unique touch that cannot be replicated (with a private channel with boatable water).
