Tucked along an extraordinary 225 feet of waterfront, this custom coastal retreat distills the very essence of island living—breathtaking water views, exceptional privacy, and thoughtfully designed spaces that move effortlessly between serene relaxation and spirited entertaining. A palm-lined driveway sets the tone, where timeless architecture and lush tropical landscaping leave an unforgettable first impression. This residence carries rare local significance as the very first custom home built by Ross Built Construction, masterfully designed by renowned architect Gene Aubry. It stands as a lasting testament to their craftsmanship and creativity—and their contribution to luxury coastal living on Anna Maria Island. Their influence resonates throughout: a thoughtful floor plan, an exceptional command of natural light, and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Inside, travertine tile and hand-scraped maple flooring flow through a light-filled interior crowned by soaring vaulted ceilings in the living and kitchen areas. The chef's kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, appointed with stone countertops, copper sinks, a gas range with pot filler, premium appliances, and a generous center island that anchors the home's main gathering spaces. Five spacious ensuite bedrooms, a dedicated den/office, and an upstairs bonus room offer effortless flexibility for family and guests. The primary suite is a private sanctuary unto itself, featuring a remodeled spa-inspired bath with custom built-in shelving and elegant finishes throughout. Designed to embrace the waterfront lifestyle, expansive glass doors open to an impressive 1,400-square-foot veranda overlooking the sparkling saltwater pool and tranquil waterways beyond. Boaters will appreciate the private dock and 10,000-lb boat lift for effortless access to open water, while an oversized three-car garage, elevator, impact-rated windows and doors, Sonos sound system, mosquito misting system, rainwater cistern, and exterior irrigation system deliver convenience and lasting peace of mind. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Holmes Beach, the property is just moments from the sugar-sand beaches of the Gulf, beloved local restaurants, boutiques, and island shops—a rare pairing of private waterfront sanctuary and walkable island convenience. Whether savoring spectacular sunsets from the veranda, entertaining poolside, strolling to nearby dining, or setting out for a day on the water, this remarkable residence offers something exceedingly rare: not only an extraordinary waterfront home, but a meaningful piece of island history, where inspired architecture, enduring craftsmanship, and an unrivaled setting come together in perfect harmony.
