Discover a rare opportunity on Palm Island, one of Siesta Key’s most distinctive residential enclaves, where quiet island living meets exceptional access to the very best of Sarasota’s Gulf Coast lifestyle. Ideally located at 5334 Calle Florida, this custom-built residence offers privacy and character while remaining just moments from the white sands of Siesta Key Beach, the Village, boating, dining, and everything that makes this part of the island so desirable. Set on a generously sized lot and elevated approximately 10 feet above sea level, the home was thoughtfully constructed with island living in mind. The elevated Key West-inspired design provides an added sense of security, with the main residence having never experienced flooding during any storm. Inside, the home immediately makes an impression. Soaring 20-foot ceilings rise above the dramatic great room, while the open-concept design allows the kitchen, dining, and living spaces to flow naturally together. Abundant natural light and the impressive ceiling height create a bright, airy atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and relaxed. With 2,838 square feet of living space, four bedrooms, and three bathrooms, the home offers the scale and flexibility for full-time living, entertaining, or an exceptional Siesta Key retreat. The oversized primary suite provides a private escape with a custom-built window seat, two walk-in closets, and a spacious primary bath. Built-in speakers extend throughout the residence and onto the back porch, creating a seamless atmosphere for everyday living and entertaining. Outdoor living is equally impressive. The elevated heated pool and hot tub create a private resort-like setting complemented by an outdoor shower and generous areas for relaxing or gathering with friends and family. Thoughtful exterior details include landscape lighting and electrical power in the soffits for seasonal or year-round accent lighting. The home is also well equipped for coastal living with three-zone air conditioning, hurricane-rated Kevlar screens, a hurricane-rated front door and garage door, and a spacious two-car garage with ample storage. Recent improvements include a new roof in 2021, pool resurfacing in 2024, pool cage repainting and rescreening in 2025, and a new water heater in 2025. What truly sets 5334 Calle Florida apart is the combination of location and architecture: a custom, elevated residence with dramatic ceiling heights and open living spaces, tucked away on Palm Island yet remarkably close to the beach and Siesta Key lifestyle. It is a distinctive opportunity to enjoy privacy, elevation, and luxury in one of Sarasota’s most sought-after island settings.
