Completely reimagined by award-winning architect Michael Halflants of Halflants + Pichette Studio for Modern Architecture, the residence received the prestigious AIA Florida/Caribbean Honor Award of Excellence in Interior Design and was featured in Sarasota Magazine's Dream Homes issue. Original interior walls were removed to reveal uninterrupted vistas that extend along the shoreline of Siesta Key, across Sarasota Bay, and to the downtown Sarasota skyline. The result is a flowing two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence where panoramic views, exceptional materials, and thoughtful design exist in perfect balance.
