A distinctive expression of Sarasota's celebrated modernist architectural tradition, 430 Acacia Drive combines thoughtful design, clean architectural lines, and an exceptional connection between indoor and outdoor living. Built in 2012 and designed by Michael Epstein of Seibert Architects, this contemporary residence draws inspiration from the Sarasota School of Architecture while offering a fresh interpretation of its timeless design principles. From the moment you enter, the architecture makes an impression. Soaring ceilings, expansive walls of glass, and clerestory windows fill the interiors with natural light, while views of the surrounding courtyards and tropical landscaping bring the outdoors into nearly every room. The open living and dining areas reflect the proportions of Sarasota's original modernist homes, creating an atmosphere that feels both expansive and intimate. Throughout the day, changing light and shadows bring a different character to the spaces. At the heart of the home, the kitchen pairs understated contemporary design with everyday practicality, featuring a generous island, gas range, and walk-in pantry. Its open connection to the dining and living areas allows the spaces to flow naturally, whether enjoying a quiet morning or gathering with friends. Privately positioned at one end of the residence, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat with high ceilings, walls of glass, and a beautifully designed bath featuring dual vanities and a walk-through wardrobe closet system. At the opposite end, a light-filled studio offers flexible space for creative pursuits, a home office, or conversion to a bedroom or family room. Equally compelling are the outdoor spaces, which are integral to the home's design. A series of courtyards and terraces creates intimate places to relax, while the private pool and outdoor shower offer a secluded setting surrounded by thoughtfully designed, low-water landscaping. Expansive glass and carefully placed openings maintain a visual connection between the interior and exterior while preserving privacy. Lifted several feet above grade to meet today’s flood standards while keeping a midcentury lightness, the residence incorporates a steel structural framework, energy-efficient glazing, and hurricane shutters, bringing contemporary considerations to its midcentury-inspired design. The home's architectural distinction has earned recognition well beyond Sarasota. Featured in the February 2016 issue of Dwell and in Sarasota Magazine, the residence has received multiple architectural honors, including recognition from AIA Florida and the Society of Registered American Architects. In 2024, it was also included in Architecture Sarasota's Sarasota 100 / Moderns That Matter collection. Located in Indian Beach–Sapphire Shores, one of Sarasota's most architecturally interesting neighborhoods, the residence is convenient to The Ringling, downtown Sarasota, and the area's cultural attractions. An exceptional opportunity to own a distinctive home that honors Sarasota's architectural heritage while offering a contemporary approach to living.

Nestled on 1.1 acres of pristine bayfront along Sarasota Bay, Etowah stands as a timeless icon of Sarasota’s rich architectural heritage, offering sweeping, wide-open bay views to the north and south, from the manicured lawn at the water’s edge all the way to the distant skyline of downtown Sarasota, with glowing sunset views that unfold nightly across the horizon. Originally built in 1925, this distinguished two-story Mediterranean Revival estate spans over 6,500 square feet and commands captivating views across the bay, all while being just 10 minutes from downtown Sarasota. Following an extensive year-long restoration, Etowah has been meticulously renewed from the inside out. Every major system of the home has been comprehensively replaced or upgraded, including all new electrical, plumbing, heating and air-conditioning systems, roofing, insulation, and drywall, ensuring modern performance while preserving historic integrity. A significant west-side addition by renowned local architect Frank Folsom Smith in 1992 introduced a gracious primary suite, a sophisticated bar area, and a grand great room—enhancements that seamlessly complement the home’s historic character. Upon entry, a vaulted ceiling sets a dramatic and welcoming tone, guiding you into the formal living room anchored by the home’s original fireplace. The adjacent dining room, surrounded by windows crafted with original glass sourced from the nearby Ringling era, creates an extraordinary setting for entertaining and comfortably accommodates gatherings of 12 or more. Designed for both elegance and performance, the chef’s kitchen is outfitted with top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and every modern convenience, while the sun-filled eat-in area offers the perfect spot for morning coffee overlooking the grounds. The west wing of the home unfolds around a serene courtyard, with the great room and owner’s suite positioned on either side—creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. The owner’s suite features sweeping bay views, dual walk-in closets, and a spacious spa-like bath. Upstairs, a second primary bedroom offers its own wood-burning fireplace, picturesque bay vistas, and generous closet space. 3 additional bedrooms on this level are well-proportioned and thoughtfully laid out, complemented by a sunken office or den tucked quietly at the end of the hall. The grounds are equally exceptional, highlighted by a heated, resort-style 15’ x 50’ swimming pool—perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. Completing the waterfront setting is a 4’ x 50’ dock, providing direct access to Sarasota Bay for boating, paddleboarding, and waterfront enjoyment. Completing the property is the original detached garage with an adjoining workshop, gardening space, laundry facilities, and private guest quarters—ideal for visitors or staff. A rare offering of architectural significance and modern luxury, Etowah is a one-of-a-kind estate that seamlessly bridges historic Florida elegance with contemporary living, all set against the unparalleled beauty of Sarasota Bay.
