Waterfront living in Sarasota offers a lifestyle shaped by natural beauty — wide water views, daily sunsets that feel like artwork, and effortless access to boating and coastal recreation. Whether it’s watching the light change across the bay, stepping onto your dock for a morning cruise, or enjoying the calm of the shoreline, these homes create a connection to the water that’s hard to match. Understanding the nuances of waterfront ownership — from views and orientation to boating access and lifestyle features — is essential, and my experience with Sarasota’s coastal communities allows me to guide buyers and sellers with clarity and confidence.

Introducing The Ivy — The first chapter in a new collaboration. Born from the partnership of Emily Moss Designs and Moss Builders, The Ivy marks the debut of their shared vision on Anna Maria Island — a carefully crafted waterfront residence where refined design and thoughtful construction meet. As the inaugural home in what will become a growing collection, The Ivy sets the tone for the work to come: elevated, intentional, and deeply rooted in the island’s quiet luxury. Step through the front entry — sheltered beneath a soaring tongue-and-groove wood ceiling — into a great room where large-format stone flooring, disappearing glass sliders, and a sculptural wood ceiling detail set a calm, organic tone. The chef's kitchen anchors the main level with a monumental waterfall-edge stone island, custom dark wood cabinetry, and sculptural globe pendant lighting, flowing seamlessly into a dining room defined by a dramatic wood-beamed vaulted ceiling, a statement orb chandelier, and floor-to-ceiling glass that frames water views from every seat at the table. Directly off the kitchen you’ll find a huge walk in pantry. Six bedrooms offer their own quiet retreats — from a serene primary suite with an upholstered headboard and private glass sliders, to a playful bunk room with built-in cubby storage for kids. The six and a half bathrooms are spa-like in their own right, with freestanding vessel sinks, brass fixtures, and dramatic veined stone and designer tile work throughout. Outside, The Ivy truly comes alive. A resort-style pool is anchored by an elevated spa with a cascading water feature, framed by a turfed lawn, lounge chairs, and a covered wood-ceilinged loggia built for shaded entertaining. A dramatic timber trellis staircase first leads up to the outdoor kitchen, massive TV and hanging swings. As you continue to make your way up to the crown jewel: a expansive rooftop deck with built-in bench seating, a private hot tub to enjoy sunsets, lounge chairs and seating around a fire pit. Direct canal front access completes the picture, with a brand-new dock and boat lift ready for a day on the water — all just a short, palm-lined walk to the shops and restaurants of Pine Avenue.
