This beautiful modern, contemporary courtyard home was designed by Chicago architect Michael Damore with artful geometry and an openness to nature. Featured in House Beautiful Magazine, it won a design award from the American Institute of Architects. At the quiet end of a private street on over 2.5 acres, the property allows serene access to nature, yet is only 10 minutes from Southwest International Airport, many restaurants, golf courses, beaches, shops and top-quality health care. Inside this courtyard home you'll find three bedrooms, a den, large living room, galleries, formal dining, Poggenpohl kitchen with built-in seating, walk-in closets and pantry, floor-to-ceiling impact-resistant glass windows and doors, and gleaming, polished concrete floors. The spaces flow from inside to outside, to a reflecting pond, the 16x32' heated lap pool, the central, lushly planted courtyard and beyond, to a beautiful indigenous forest. The long driveway leads to a three-car garage with solar charging, and a special 16-by-33-foot studio mech and storage space above. Between Sarasota and Naples, this property is not in a flood zone. Note: Architect's floor plans are available for your kind review. Sellers will pay Title.
