Sailboat water, no bridges to the Gulf, a 10,000 lb boat lift, and room for a 37+ foot vessel or larger right in your backyard. Welcome to one of Burnt Store Isles' most impressive waterfront estates, where the lifestyle sells itself before you ever step inside. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in Burnt Store Isles, this elevated Craftsman-style home makes a statement from the moment you arrive. Steps lead up to an expansive covered front porch, the kind of space that immediately tells you this home lives differently than everything else on the market. With 77 feet of saltwater canal frontage, direct bridge-free Gulf access, and 3,241 square feet of heated living space plus an additional 1,229 square feet of covered outdoor areas, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom two-story residence checks every box for the serious Florida waterfront buyer. Inside, a dramatic two-story foyer sets the tone with soaring ceilings and an open staircase. The chef's kitchen features solid wood shaker cabinets, stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances, all overlooking the pool, canal, and dock. Multiple French doors connect the living and dining areas to the outdoors, and wide-plank 12x48 tile runs continuously throughout the entire home. A wood-burning stone fireplace with stone surround anchors the living room, while crown molding and high ceilings carry through every space. The main floor includes three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a generously sized laundry room with utility sink, folding station, and cabinetry. Upstairs, the private primary suite spans approximately 775 square feet and opens to a screened balcony with sweeping canal views. The ensuite bathroom features a double vanity, dedicated dressing vanity, garden tub, and separate glass-enclosed shower. A custom walk-in closet measuring 18x13 completes the retreat. Step outside to a 30x15 screened, heated saltwater pool with a newly replaced screen enclosure (2023), surrounded by covered lanai space ideal for year-round
