Downtown Waterfront! Seeking instant gratification? Welcome to one of downtown Sarasota’s most hidden gems. Located in Lincoln Park on Hudson Bayou, this intimate enclave of just eight residences offers a rare blend of privacy, charm, and immediate access to the very best of Sarasota’s cultural and waterfront lifestyle. Tucked along the tranquil waters of Hudson Bayou, the setting is serene yet remarkably close to downtown’s celebrated restaurants, theaters, art venues, and the iconic Marie Selby Botanical Gardens. As you arrive along the tree-lined street, the home’s Craftsman-style architecture immediately captures attention. A freshly painted exterior featuring HardieBoard siding and accents delivers timeless appeal with low maintenance living in mind. Inside, the residence strikes a perfect balance between comfort and modern sophistication. Every detail reflects the owner’s discerning eye for design. A charming brick-lined front porch leads to an inviting entry and a versatile sitting room—ideal as a home office, reading nook, or a sunlit spot to enjoy morning coffee. The curated eat-in kitchen is the centerpiece of the home, appointed with upgraded Bosch appliances, a gas cooktop, and thoughtful finishes that elevate both form and function. Adjacent, the spacious living room features a custom built-in entertainment center and offers the perfect setting for relaxed evenings, family gatherings, or conversation with friends. French doors open to a true waterfront sanctuary—an outdoor retreat complete with Brazilian Ipe decking, a heated pool and spa, and peaceful bayou views. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level, offering a luxurious, spa-inspired bathroom with custom tile work. Upstairs, three generously sized guest bedrooms provide ample space and flexibility. One functions beautifully as a second primary suite, featuring a stunning custom bath that rivals the main suite. A fourth bedroom is currently configured as a den with an armoire and custom built-in cabinetry. Adding to the home’s rare appeal is a deeded boat slip with a 10,000-pound lift directly on Hudson Bayou, offering immediate access to Sarasota Bay and beyond. Perfectly positioned between downtown Sarasota and Southside Village, this exceptional residence places dining, shopping, recreation, and culture just moments away. It would be remiss not to mention your choice of award-winning beaches a few minutes’ drive away. Private showings available by appointment.
