SARASOTA, FLA. (June 3, 2022) — A captivating bayfront estate has sold for $9.342 million — the most expensive sale in Harbor Acres year-to-date. Located at 1486 Hillview Drive, this magnificent residential offering overlooks Sarasota Bay on 100 feet of waterfront. The residence was listed and sold exclusively by Louis Wery of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s downtown Sarasota office.
With over 8,400 square feet of luxurious living space, this custom four-bedroom, four-and-two-half-bath home embodies the ultimate in careful craftsmanship, elegance and artful design. A tranquil canopy of mature oaks welcomes guests into the private retreat’s open floor plan that captures spectacular Siesta Key, Lido Key and Big Pass views throughout two spacious levels. The gourmet kitchen is crafted with a large center island, a Wolf gas range, double ovens, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine cooler. Multiple walls of French doors provide an easy transition between the interior and exterior spaces to ensure effortless entertaining. Additional appointments include a billiard room, elevator and a butler's pantry with another Sub-Zero refrigerator.
Outside, a tropical resort-style oasis awaits, with outdoor kitchen and covered living area boasting a fireplace and deck overlooking the infinity-edge pool and spa. A private dock offers direct access to the bay and Gulf of Mexico. The property is equipped with an elevator, generator, three-car garage and motor court, as well as three additional covered parking spots.
“This exquisite estate offers a unique combination of sophistication, state-of-the-art features and a prime West of Trail location," said Louis Wery. "Despite seeing a shift in the market, and for higher-priced properties in particular, the significant sale price indicates that the demand for luxury real estate in Sarasota continues to be strong.”
