Welcome to Villa Fortaleza, a name that reflects the strength and character of this elegant residence located on one of the most desirable streets on Bird Key. With approximately 100-foot frontage on the first deep-water canal from the open waters of Sarasota Bay. This impressive property with a boat dock and 19,000 lbs lift appeals to boating enthusiasts and connoisseurs. The expansive doorway opens to a gloriously large courtyard that links the 3-bed/3-bath plus den/office main house to a La Casita, a separate spacious air conditioned suite that can be utilized as a guest accommodation, home office/study, or workout room. The open floor plan allows for stylish entertaining with dazzling water views visible through the wall of French doors connecting to the Florentine marble pool area and balustrade terrace.
