Description
Villa Meraviglia is a rare waterfront estate where architectural distinction and modern comfort come together in a home designed for an exceptional way of life. Fully reimagined and completed in 2020, the estate's architecture, exterior grounds, and interiors are inspired by the world's most iconic villas. Set on 1.22 bayfront acres in Oyster Bay Estates, the residence commands 146 feet of direct frontage along the shimmering waters of Little Sarasota Bay. Here, mornings begin with light dancing across the water, afternoons unfold poolside, and evenings linger over dinner as the sun slips below the horizon. With panoramic western views and year-round sunsets, every day offers a front-row seat to the ever-changing beauty of the bay. A striking custom gate creates a memorable arrival, while two gold-leafed gates provide privacy and discreet access-including a private entrance to the neighboring yacht club. Inside, nearly 10,700 square feet of refined living space is complemented by more than 4,000 additional air-conditioned space designed for leisure, entertainment, and everyday enjoyment. Four beautifully appointed en-suite bedrooms offer private retreats, complemented by two stylish powder rooms for guests. Covered terraces extend from the main living areas on both levels to enjoy spectacular sunsets and sweeping bay views. The heart of the home is designed around gathering. With dual Clive Christian-inspired kitchens, every occasion, from a quiet breakfast to a celebratory dinner, unfolds with ease. Throughout the residence, Venetian plaster walls, 23-carat gold-gilded millwork, hand-painted frescoes, pecky cypress ceilings, stone-inlaid courtyards, and imported Italian materials create an atmosphere that feels timeless, distinctive, and deeply personal. Thoughtful luxuries extend throughout, from bespoke hardware, statement lighting and finishes to an elevator, whole-house generator and three-car garage. And then there are the spaces designed simply for enjoying life. Whether it is a family movie night, a spirited game of pool, or an evening gathered with friends, every space encourages connection. Outside, life naturally moves toward the water. Layered terraces create intimate settings for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, and quiet evenings beneath the stars. The resort-style pool becomes the center of days spent outdoors. The octagonal pavilion and beautifully crafted summer kitchen, with Chicago brick and a herringbone ceiling adding warmth and character, set the stage for effortless outdoor entertaining. The pool terrace is a destination in itself. Italian marble unfolds across the deck with intricate mosaics framing the water. A dramatic Medusa-inspired walkway draws you toward the private dock, where boat and jet-ski lifts make spontaneous days on the bay part of everyday life. From a morning cruise to a sunset ride across the water, the bay is always within reach. Here, luxury is something to experience. It is barefoot afternoons by the pool, dinners that stretch late into the evening, boats heading out at golden hour, and quiet mornings when the bay is perfectly still. Private and serene, yet close to The Field Club, Sarasota's celebrated arts and dining scene, and the Gulf's beautiful beaches, Villa Meraviglia offers a rare opportunity to live surrounded by beauty while remaining within easy reach of everything that makes Sarasota special. A remarkable home, an extraordinary setting, and a lifestyle meant to be savored.
