Open WaterDockOnly
This dock fronts open water — a bay, harbor or marina basin rather than a canal.
There is no across-the-canal bank here, so no canal width applies and boat length is not limited by room to turn around. Check depth, beam and slip dimensions with the listing agent.

Description
Imagine beginning your morning with coffee overlooking the water, spending the afternoon exploring Sarasota Bay by boat, and returning home for an evening beside the pool. At 1749 Sandalwood Drive, this is the appeal of waterfront living in Southpointe Shores, an established Sarasota neighborhood just a short drive from Siesta Key Beach. Surrounded by mature palms and tropical landscaping, this furnished residence offers a private, compound-style setting with distinctive architectural character. Its thoughtfully redesigned kitchen, dining, bar, and living areas create inviting spaces for both everyday routines and memorable gatherings. The transformation features imported Lube of Italy custom cabinetry, Thermador appliances including a warming drawer, Brazilian granite with semi-precious stone detailing, Italian marble flooring, and carefully selected lighting. Here, the transition from indoors to outdoors feels natural. Expansive gathering areas connect to a generous lanai, pool, and spa, inviting you to enjoy a quiet morning, an afternoon swim, or dinner with friends. The outdoor setting provides room to relax and make the most of Sarasota's warm coastal climate. For boating enthusiasts, the waterfront location adds another dimension to daily life. Situated just two homes from the Intracoastal Waterway, the property offers deepwater access, a 12,000-pound boat lift, and 50-amp dock service. Set out along the waterways toward Sarasota Bay, enjoy time on the water, and return to your own dock at the end of the day. Southpointe Shores is appreciated for its wide canals, boating culture, and established residential surroundings. Away from the water, the location keeps much of Sarasota within convenient reach. Enjoy the quartz sand of Siesta Key Beach, explore nearby dining and shopping, or take advantage of downtown Sarasota's galleries, theaters, and cultural attractions. The setting balances a quieter residential atmosphere with access to the activities that define the Gulf Coast lifestyle. Thoughtful improvements add comfort and convenience, including impact glass windows and doors, integrated indoor and outdoor Sonos audio, dedicated electronics infrastructure, and a whole-house security system with 12 cameras installed in 2024. Additional updates include a roof and room addition in 2018, full re-pipe in 2021, pool equipment replacement in 2023, and new air-conditioning systems in 2024. More than a collection of impressive finishes, 1749 Sandalwood Drive offers the opportunity to enjoy Sarasota from the water, welcome guests into beautifully designed spaces, and come home to a tropical waterfront setting. Discover the possibilities of life in Southpointe Shores.
