Exclusive Private Residence on the Gulf of Mexico, a Premier Vacation Retreat

Best kept secret! Uniquely suited for guests who requires both luxury and privacy, this gulf front home offers picture postcard views all day from all rooms. Located directly on the beach via private, gated road, it features beach to bay water access. Enjoy the famously beautiful Siesta Key sunsets nightly right from the lanai or upper level decks. Stroll on the unmatched private beach or take your coffee in the lush tropical gardens on the bay side. Launch a water adventure from the dock--boating, fishing, kayaking with access to Inter-coastal Waterway. Kayaks and stand-up paddle boards are provided.
Wide open spacious kitchen and living area with en suite king bedroom on main level along with additional full bath, laundry on main level and on upper level--double full-size stackable units in master closet. Elevator access from the ground level to every floor. The main level lanai spans the gulf front side and can be enjoyed in all weather as it features sliding glass windows. A romantic and spacious gulf front primary suite plus another gulf front king + twin and third queen garden view bedroom are upstairs which share spacious hall bath. Main level primary with en suite bath plus full hall bath for living area access. All bedrooms feature walk out terrace or lanai for peaceful outdoor relaxation anytime. Since these photos, the upstairs and bedroom carpet has been replaced with beautiful luxury vinyl plank. The staircase has been revamped to include a lovely solid aluminum handrail and new carpet runner. The comfort and peace this home affords are beyond explanation in just a few words.

Aptly named The Patient Heron for the oft sited Great Blue Herons which walk slowly along water's edge, this unique and luxurious home has only just been made available in the last four years. Many of our guests have become repeat guests. This is a very special place. It is exclusively offered for minimum one month stays January through March, two-week minimum April through December. Book your stay in paradise now! You will not regret it! Book this and score major points with the family!
