Welcome to the enchanting world of La Coquille Cottage, an idyllic, romantic residence where Siesta Key meets Nantucket Island. Tucked away on a private lane on a spectacular, canopied 0.83-acre property in the Sanderling Club, an exclusive guard-gated, Gulf-front community. An island estate like this is rarely offered; with vintage design and the relaxed island lifestyle, this expansive three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath main home with a separate one-bedroom, one-bath guesthouse was designed for entertaining family and friends. Emanating character from the front entry foyer, this open-concept plan features a fireplace in the spacious living room and a dining room that leads to an oversized screened lanai overlooking the pool and Heron Lagoon. With unrivaled privacy, the Sanderling Club on Siesta Key's coveted Gulf of Mexico coast offers unique architecture on meandering lanes in an Old Florida setting. Community members enjoy activities and social events in a clubhouse designed by famed architect Paul Rudolph, with a large waterfront patio and grilling area with Gulf swimming access, private tennis, pickleball, and volleyball courts, and a playground. Enjoy breathtaking views of the Gulf all day from the historic beach cabanas and clubhouse, and savor blazing sunsets each night. A boater's delight, the community also offers a private bayfront marina with direct sailboat access to Sarasota Bay, Intracoastal Waterway, and the Gulf of Mexico. Only minutes to Siesta Key's crystal quartz sands and Siesta Village for shopping and restaurants. Culturally rich downtown Sarasota restaurants, theater, ballet, opera, museums, galleries, and shopping are a short drive away. |
