Location: In Sarasota, south of Bee Ridge Road. Quick access to South Gate Shoppingtown and my favorite Thai restaurant in the most popular high school district in town.

Description: This contemporary house has vaulted ceilings and clerestory windows to let lots of light in to the large living room. A relaxing water view from various indoor sitting areas, from the long lanais across the back of the house, and from the pool area, will help you enjoy the calm Florida atmosphere that lent it's name to the famous Siesta Key nearby! Dock your boat or jet skiis behind your house.
