One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to the ideally located and coveted Esplanade by Siesta Key—where convenience meets luxury living. Located just minutes from the crystal-sand beaches of Siesta Key, this comfortable, maintenance-free home sits on a large lot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. The Taylor Morrison–built Farnese model offers a practical and inviting layout, featuring two en-suite bedrooms, and a den that can easily serve as a third bedroom. The gourmet kitchen is a highlight, boasting a large granite island, solid wood cabinetry, a gas cooktop, and a bright breakfast nook. The spacious primary suite has bay windows overlooking the serene pond, while the primary bathroom includes neutral countertops, double sinks, and a generous walk-in shower. The den provides an ideal office, reading room, or guest retreat. From the great room, sliding glass doors lead to the expansive lanai, where you can enjoy peaceful mornings taking in pond views and local wildlife. Additional features include an outdoor kitchen, tray ceilings, a large laundry room with cabinetry, a half bath, and a two-car garage. Notable upgrades—impact windows and sliders plus a whole-house Generac generator—provide peace of mind during hurricane season. The community’s exceptional amenity center offers a state-of-the-art fitness facility, on site manager, social spaces, a resort-style pool and spa, tennis court, pickleball courts, bocce ball, and a Paw Park. Whether you prefer an active lifestyle or relaxing with friends and neighbors, Esplanade has something for everyone. Centrally located, the community offers convenient access to downtown Sarasota, shopping, dining, and the world-famous Siesta Key.
