SARASOTA, FLA. (January 17, 2022) — A unique and secluded gated estate has entered the market. Located at 3736 Meridale Road and nestled on 12.5 lushly landscaped acres, the central Sarasota offering was originally owned by Mr. and Mrs. Honore Palmer, son of the famous Bertha Palmer. Marketed exclusively by Joel Schemmel of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s downtown Sarasota office, the listing details can be viewed here.
The remarkable property was purchased in 1992 by its current owners and transformed into an extraordinary family compound. With six en-suite bedrooms, a first-floor master wing and views of the private and pristine grounds from nearly every room, the spacious two-story main home showcases meticulous craftsmanship lined with warm wood finishes. Seamlessly flowing into an impressive array of entertaining spaces, the light-filled layout includes a game room and bowling alley. Encompassing over 3,800 square feet, a three-bedroom, three-bath guesthouse boasts a two-car garage and its own private entrance.
Walls of glass highlight an outstanding outdoor oasis complete with a spectacular pool and tennis court framed by mature trees. A stand-alone garage and private go-cart track are ideal for both the auto aficionado and hobby enthusiast.
“This one-of-a-kind estate presents a rare opportunity to own a private property with significant acreage in the heart of Sarasota," said Joel Schemmel. "The discerning buyer will appreciate its endless potential to enjoy serene settings or completely redevelop the land.”
