Piazza On The Bay. This iconic modern home rises above a curb to seawall plaza that incorporates the design of the home and the property itself into a unified whole. The property and the home enjoy clarity of design from the "Bismarkia Palm" - palm court guest parking area, through the private courtyard and entry way, thereafter giving way to the reflecting pond, water elements, pool and Sarasota Bay beyond. Sophisticated details from top to bottom this property represents a modern and current interpretation of Bauhaus principals and up to date execution of the concepts incorporated in the Sarasota School of Architecture. All designed by renowned Sarasota Architect, Guy Peterson. This unique and custom home provides all expected amenities such as gourmet kitchen with redundant appliances, main floor master bedroom, extravagant master bath, formal and informal living and entertaining areas. Upstairs are four versatile bedrooms and three baths and includes an amazing second master suite, currently used as an office and exercise space. The flooring inside and outside decking walkways and driveway of the residence are a form of Terrazzo know as shell topping. This unifying element underscores the expansive space and enhances the way the home joins the interior to the exterior seamlessly. The spectacular and expansive east and south facing views are enjoyed from every room and as well from the expansive decking rarely found on a modern bayfront home.
