The epitome of luxury living awaits in the prestigious gated community of Tidy Island on Sarasota Bay.<br />
Presenting itself as Manatee County’s largest condominium, this opulent residence stands as a<br />
testament to unrivaled ambition and visionary design. Commissioned and curated by none other than<br />
the esteemed Hall of Fame Tennis coach and IMG Academy pioneer, Nick Bollettieri, this residence<br />
seamlessly combines two oversized condos into an expansive grand bayfront home with 6,900 of<br />
living space. Renowned for training some of tennis’ biggest stars, Bollettieri created this commanding<br />
residence for his family, long-term guests and rising star students. As you enter, a dramatic<br />
foyer and imposing vaulted ceilings create an ambiance of grandeur and sophistication, while touches<br />
like a dual-sided fireplace add a touch of warmth to both a formal living room and dining room. The cantilevered Florida Room, suspended over the pool brings 180 degree views of Sarasota Bay from Longboat Key to Downtown Sarasota. A haven for culinary enthusiasts, the chef’s kitchen is equipped with the finest appliances including a Sub-Zero<br />
refrigerator, Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, wall ovens, vent hood, comfort height microwave and<br />
magnificent 10-foot-long Island. A distinctive feature of this one-of-a-kind property is the two-level<br />
primary suite providing a private retreat with unparalleled space. Features include a private sitting area<br />
with dual sided fireplace, wet bar, balcony, ensuite bath with dual walk-in closets and a 2nd floor Loft<br />
that lends itself for use as a personal wellness area or a boutique-style dressing room with display for bags,<br />
designer shoes or sneaker collection. Entertainment is elevated within the game room with wet bar<br />
and adjacent home theater room offering the ultimate cinematic experience. Guest<br />
quarters on the third level include three full bedrooms, three full bathrooms and a large loft living<br />
area with wet bar for the comfort of long-term guests or to provide multi-generational flexibility. A private elevator<br />
services all three levels for added convenience. Indulge in the outdoors, where a 50-foot-long<br />
lap pool with spa beckons for leisurely afternoons in the sun. Nearly 4,500 square feet of outdoor<br />
entertaining space, easily host large gatherings for all to enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding<br />
beauty. Blending the care-free lifestyle and lower maintenance commitment of a condominium, with the privacy of<br />
a free-standing home, this marvelous residence would make a great second home for<br />
seasonal living, or the right incentive to enjoy year-round minutes from Anna Maria Island. Private jet<br />
and charter service at nearby Sarasota (SRQ) International Airport, or Tampa (TPA) International is less<br />
than an hour’s drive. For Boaters, numerous Yacht Clubs, marinas & boat storage nearby. Tidy Island is home to less than 100 residents, and those fortunate few enjoy unparalleled privacy, 24/7 guard-gated access and a lifestyle that cannot be replicated. Enjoy<br />
early morning or late evening walks along the nature trails and boardwalks traversing the surrounding coastal conservation area. Community amenities include two Pools, tennis courts, clubhouse, small gym and a bayside park with kayak launch. On-site<br />
maintenance & property management provide building exterior maintenance, grounds/shoreline<br />
maintenance and a host of other services. You’ll love the ease and exclusivity of the Tidy Island lifestyle. |
