Welcome to Coucher du Soleil — French for “Sunset” — a magnificent gated waterfront estate styled after the grand French residences of New Orleans. Breathtaking views of Little Sarasota Bay, Siesta Key, and spectacular daily sunsets greet you from every room of this one-of-a-kind home. Impeccable craftsmanship is evident throughout, from the custom sapele mahogany front doors and hand-carved fireplace mantel to the handmade crown moldings and exotic sucupira hardwood floors. An elevator, exquisite lighting fixtures, exterior gas lanterns, and thoughtful hardware selections make this residence as functional as it is beautiful. The open-concept living and dining room flows seamlessly through numerous French doors onto an expansive covered balcony, also accessible from the guest suite and solarium. A custom library offers a tranquil retreat, while the entire top floor is dedicated to the primary suite, complete with a private office, morning kitchen, spacious dressing room, and private balcony with unsurpassed views. The carriage house provides an ideal in-law or guest suite with its own entrance, kitchen, bath, and balcony. Outdoors, enjoy the sprawling verandah overlooking the saltwater pool or head out on the water from your 50-foot composite dock with lift, electric, water, and sailboat access. Truly a one-of-a-kind Sarasota estate, do not miss this opportunity.
