Property Description

Tucked just moments from Hudson Bayou and Sarasota Bay, this gated mid-century modern compound offers a rare opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Sarasota's architectural and artistic history while embracing a lifestyle that feels both inspired and entirely livable. Originally built in 1954 as a Ruth Richmond design and later reimagined by nationally recognized abstract artist Steve McCallum, the property blends authentic mid-century lines with bold creative character. Set behind walls and framed by lush tropical landscaping, the home unfolds as a private retreat within one of Sarasota's most desirable cultural corridors. A paver drive leads to the striking architectural façade, clerestory windows, and modern courtyard entry. Inside, natural light pours through high transom windows and expansive sliding glass doors, highlighting the openness and warmth that define true mid-century design. The main residence offers three bedrooms and two full baths, with an open living and dining layout that flows effortlessly to the courtyard pool. Clean lines, tile flooring throughout, and thoughtful updates create a space that feels timeless yet comfortable. The private courtyard pool anchors the compound, surrounded by palms, bamboo, and multiple seating areas designed for relaxed evenings or intimate gatherings. The setting offers privacy without sacrificing proximity to downtown and the bayfront. The studio structure truly elevates the estate. Measuring approximately 56 by 32 feet with soaring 16-foot ceilings, it was purpose-built for large-scale creative work and now offers remarkable flexibility. With its own private entrance and a dedicated bathroom, the studio can function independently as a guest retreat, executive workspace, gallery-style studio, or wellness space. The space also includes a walk-in closet area that currently functions as both a walk-in closet and laundry room, adding additional convenience and functionality. An interior hallway also connects it to the main home, allowing seamless use for multigenerational living or extended guests while maintaining the option for complete privacy. For several years, the studio operated as a curated, owner-hosted guest experience, earning more than 200 five-star reviews and establishing itself among Sarasota's earliest luxury short-term stays. That history speaks to its design appeal, comfort, and versatility. In addition to the main living spaces, the property also features an approximately 200 square foot storage room connected to the studio. This flexible area can easily function as an extension of the studio when the roll-up door is opened, creating additional usable space for creative work, storage, or studio expansion. Offering 2,478 square feet under air across both structures, this property delivers architectural authenticity, creative scale, and compound-style living just minutes from downtown dining, galleries, and Sarasota's renowned arts scene. This is a mid-century modern lifestyle property for those who value design, flexibility, and the freedom to shape a home around how they truly want to live. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
