This house is a gem! It is beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a very comfortable stay- inside and outside. It’s a pleasure to cook in, so comfortable to sleep and wonderful to sit by the pool over morning coffee. The house was stocked with the basics and very clean. We loved it and hope to return! Also the owner was very attentive and although we had zero issues I am confident if we had they would have been immediately addressed! Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Great place to experience Sarasota!

We stayed here for almost 5 weeks. This property was perfect for what we were there for. The location was great and central to many activities and beaches. We loved the very private pool area, and the mid century vibe of the house. We were here when hurrican Milton came through. Bill, the owner and Larry the property manager were very informative. We would definitely stay at this property again!

Lovely

We had a lovely stay. Property manager was very nice. The pool was absolutely wonderful! We spent most of our time outside, the garden is gorgeous. Made most of our meals and the kitchen was great. Very beautiful property, would definitely stay there again. The only complaint was the master bed needs replacing but it wasn't bad enough that we tried sleeping in a different room.

Sarasota doesn't need to be all about the beach...

Absolutely charming little house in a quiet neighborhood in South Sarasota. The house is bright, cheerful and has a lap pool in the well landscaped backyard. The best seafood restaurant / market, a Trader Joes and great empanadas are within easy walking distance. We're coming back.

Brilliant - we loved it

One of the best places we have ever stayed. Very spacious and tastefully decorated we found everything we needed for our holiday. Great kitchen and pantry with lots of store cupboard basics to get you going. Comfy bedrooms and great showers! The property is very private and the pool and gadens were beautifully maintained. This was our first time in Sarasota and we found it very smart with lots of supermarkets, restaurants and stunning beaches. We found the prices of food etc expensive so would recommend trying Detwilers for fresh fruit, veg, meat and fish. Overall we absolutely loved the property and Sarasota in general. Also looking at a return visit in 2024. One point - for rainy days (there were a few in November) there are puzzles and games though be warned, one of the puzzles has a single piece missing. 😉

Beautiful old Florida with modern conveniences

Eden-like, completely private pool and garden. Pool was 85-90 degrees F. in late April, (since pool is heated by sun only, it would be too cold for me in winter). We felt no need to go to Selby Gardens because we had our own garden here. Floating in the pool, we had butterflies fly by, and lots of birds sang. Very large 3 bed, 3 bath 1970’s Florida house. Lovely neighborhood, close to uncountable number of restaurants. 5 minutes from Philippi Creek restaurant. I drove 15 minutes to Siesta Beach every morning at sun-up and it was just wonderful. Air conditioning is excellent—78 degrees was plenty cool for us. Ceiling fans in bedrooms but not in living room area. New, large washer/dryer and good dishwasher. Charcoal grill in pool area.

Cool MCM house with pool

Bill’s MCM house was a fun place to stay for my family during spring break. We had plenty of room to spread out and also have together time in the stylish great room. The home contained lots of MCM furniture and décor throughout which was right up our alley. The patio, gardens, and pool area was a dream. We spent lots of time hanging out and sunning ourselves in the beautiful backyard. The only downside was the pool waterfall wasn’t in working order so we were unable to enjoy it during our stay. When we wanted a change of scenery we hit the beach which was a short drive away. We loved the quiet neighborhood and appreciated that the house was on a dead end street to maximize that vibe. With that said, we had so much to see and do all within a short drive. As for areas of opportunity, the beds and pillows weren’t the most comfortable, but I admit I’m picky when it comes to these things. They were mostly fine, but a refresh would take this home to the next level. Also, I’m not a fan of wall to wall carpet which was in the main bedrooms, but again that’s my personal preference. I would still definitely recommend Bill’s place.

We had an amazing time. We loved our stay. The home was perfect and met all our expectations. The tropical garden that surrounded the home was absolutely beautiful. Each morning, I would turn on the waterfall, sit by the pool, surrounded by the garden, while I drank my coffee. It was surreal and a peaceful way to start my mornings. Everything went smoothly and the communication was excellent. I would highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Great relaxing property. The gardens are spectacular and the space allowed us to spread out and enjoy together time for meals and relaxing time to take in the beautiful artwork. The kitchen was well stocked allowing us to prepare meals and close enough to restaurants and activities. We’ll come back!

This property had everything we were desiring for our honeymoon. As avid mid century modern enthusiasts, we were overjoyed to find this listing, it did not disappoint. We had a minor snafu upon arrival/checking, but all was rectified. The worst part was having to leave. We would definitely stay here again.

Why they chose this property

the house is part of the sarasota architectural heritage of modern homes. much of florida is a sort of faux mediterranean pastiche but this house has character and is casual and simple. it is also very private and the garden surrounding the pool is tranquil and lush.

What makes this property unique

on a quiet dead end street with little traffic but still very close even walkable to shopping restaurants and bikable to the beach.
