Property Description

A premier West of Trail address in Granada. A property rarely duplicated in Sarasota. Casa de Flores is a 1920s Spanish Revival compound designed for modern flexibility — multi-generational living, private guest quarters, and exceptional indoor-outdoor entertaining — all set within one of Sarasota’s most coveted neighborhoods of Granada. The main residence offers two bedrooms and two baths, anchored by a charming, well-appointed kitchen that blends character and functionality. Equipped with a 6-burner Dacor gas range, double ovens, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and artisan tile accents, the space is intimate yet efficient — perfectly suited for everyday living or hosting close friends. Formal and informal living areas provide architectural depth, while the spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a dedicated sitting area, a rare feature for a home of this era. What truly distinguishes the property are the two detached guest residences, creating a private compound atmosphere. The two-story pool house features a balcony overlooking the courtyard, with a bedroom/office and 2nd laundry access on the first level, and an additional bedroom, full kitchen, and dining area upstairs — ideal for extended family, separated living, or income potential. A separate guest casita includes a bedroom, full bath, kitchenette, and offering flexibility for in-laws, visiting guests, a private office, or creative studio. The layout allows connection when desired and privacy when needed — a rare offering West of the Trail. Original architectural details — hand-carved wood doors, arched passageways, textured plaster walls, a clawfoot tub, parquet and tile floors, and built-in bookcases — preserve the romance of Spanish Mediterranean design while thoughtful updates support modern comfort. Outdoors, the walled courtyard creates a true retreat centered around a heated pool and spa, framed by lush tropical landscaping and a trellis-covered dining area. The front patio adds another inviting gathering space, and ample parking ensures effortless hosting. Other important features are new roofs in 2021, a whole-house generator, and hurricane shutters, offering confidence for year-round or seasonal use. Minutes to Siesta Key Beach and close to Southside Village, this is a rare opportunity to own a versatile Sarasota estate property in one of the city’s most enduring and desirable neighborhoods.
