Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, where two canals meet and the water moves slow and easy, sits a waterfront home built for people who understand the rhythm of the sea. Where a boat isn't a luxury...it's how you move through the world. Six minutes. That's all it takes to get from your dock to open water. Sailboat access. No bridges. No hassle. Just you, the boat, and the Gulf calling your name.
Completed in 2022, the house doesn't try hard...it doesn't have to. High trayed ceilings give the place room to breathe. Tile floors keep things cool under bare feet after a long day on the water. And the kitchen? That's where things start getting serious. A chef's setup anchored by a massive island that invites conversation, late-night drinks, and the kind of meals that stretch into stories.
The great room is the soul of the house. A custom feature wall with a 10-foot fireplace sets the mood, while 32 feet of sliding glass erase the line between indoors and outdoors. Because in Florida, walls are optional.
Step outside and the whole place opens up. A 43-foot lanai stretches out in front of you like the deck of a ship...wood ceilings overhead, three fans moving the air, an outdoor kitchen ready for grilled snapper or steaks, and a stone fireplace that takes the edge off those cooler winter evenings.
Then there's the pool. Leathered marble underfoot. Saltwater. Infinity edge. A glass-tiled spa spilling over like something out of a dream. Sunsets paint the water every night while the intersecting canals stretch out beyond the pool cage like liquid highways.
Morning brings the sunrise through massive picture windows. Evening brings the sky on fire over the water. You get both here.
Inside, the house keeps things smart and comfortable. A quiet den with synchronized double doors. Split bedrooms for privacy. A pool bath with storage for all the gear that inevitably follows a life lived outdoors.
The master suite? That's your escape hatch. Sliders open to the lanai. The shower feels like something out of a boutique resort--rainhead above, wall spray, handheld, seating. And the walk-in closet is big enough to lose things in.
Behind the scenes, the house is built like it means business: metal roof, impact glass, buried propane tank feeding the outdoor fireplace and grill, tankless hot water, pool heater, whole-home surge protection, Halo filtration, fiber internet, and generator readiness. Even the garage is mini-split ready.
For boaters, the details matter. A 10,000-pound lift sits discreetly on the side canal so it never blocks your view. Water and electric at the dock. Thirty-five feet of dockage--and 230 feet of seawall--so there's plenty of room for an upgrade. When the sun finally sinks into the canal and the water goes quiet, you'll understand something the Rosen Brothers figured out a long time ago: Gulf access real estate is desirable.
