Renowned architect, William Rupp, created this gem in 1965 as one of the newer, mid-century modern style homes in Sarasota's iconic Lido Shores neighborhood. Recently added to the National Register of Historic Places, this home showcases the Sarasota School of Architecture's affinity for open floor plans, an abundance of windows, and indoor-outdoor living. While preserving the original features characteristic of the period, including terrazzo floors, exposed concrete block walls, and wood panel ceilings and beams, the current owners recently updated the kitchen and baths in keeping with the modernistic design. It is fabulous! A private courtyard entry welcomes your guests and tropical gardens surround the home with concrete block walls adding privacy and interest to the design. The interior feels even larger than its footprint due to the openness of rooms and walls of windows. The primary bedroom and main rooms of the home overlook the sun kissed backyard and pool which is perfectly fitting for hosting a 1960's Palm Springs, Hollywood celebrity soiree! 4 bedrooms/4 ensuite baths, large kitchen overlooking the living areas, glamourous owner's suite, fireplaces in the great room and upstairs guest suite, well equipped kitchen and laundry room, two car garage. Lido Shores homeowners enjoy private, deeded access to Lido Beach, sidewalk one mile to St. Armands, and easily accessible to Longboat Key and downtown Sarasota restaurants, dining, shopping, and culture.
