Property Description

A distinctive expression of Sarasota's celebrated modernist architectural tradition, 430 Acacia Drive combines thoughtful design, clean architectural lines, and an exceptional connection between indoor and outdoor living. Built in 2012 and designed by Michael Epstein of Seibert Architects, this contemporary residence draws inspiration from the Sarasota School of Architecture while offering a fresh interpretation of its timeless design principles. From the moment you enter, the architecture makes an impression. Soaring ceilings, expansive walls of glass, and clerestory windows fill the interiors with natural light, while views of the surrounding courtyards and tropical landscaping bring the outdoors into nearly every room. The open living and dining areas reflect the proportions of Sarasota's original modernist homes, creating an atmosphere that feels both expansive and intimate. Throughout the day, changing light and shadows bring a different character to the spaces. At the heart of the home, the kitchen pairs understated contemporary design with everyday practicality, featuring a generous island, gas range, and walk-in pantry. Its open connection to the dining and living areas allows the spaces to flow naturally, whether enjoying a quiet morning or gathering with friends. Privately positioned at one end of the residence, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat with high ceilings, walls of glass, and a beautifully designed bath featuring dual vanities and a walk-through wardrobe closet system. At the opposite end, a light-filled studio offers flexible space for creative pursuits, a home office, or conversion to a bedroom or family room. Equally compelling are the outdoor spaces, which are integral to the home's design. A series of courtyards and terraces creates intimate places to relax, while the private pool and outdoor shower offer a secluded setting surrounded by thoughtfully designed, low-water landscaping. Expansive glass and carefully placed openings maintain a visual connection between the interior and exterior while preserving privacy. Lifted several feet above grade to meet today's flood standards while keeping a midcentury lightness, the residence incorporates a steel structural framework, energy-efficient glazing, and hurricane shutters, bringing contemporary considerations to its midcentury-inspired design. The home's architectural distinction has earned recognition well beyond Sarasota. Featured in the February 2016 issue of Dwell and in Sarasota Magazine, the residence has received multiple architectural honors, including recognition from AIA Florida and the Society of Registered American Architects. In 2024, it was also included in Architecture Sarasota's Sarasota 100 / Moderns That Matter collection. Located in Indian Beach–Sapphire Shores, one of Sarasota's most architecturally interesting neighborhoods, the residence is convenient to The Ringling, downtown Sarasota, and the area's cultural attractions. An exceptional opportunity to own a distinctive home that honors Sarasota's architectural heritage while offering a contemporary approach to living.
