Property Description
Now is your chance to own an important mid-century modern classic! The Bechtel House (1967), was designed by Seibert Architects' Edward "Tim" Seibert FAIA, one of the Founders of the Sarasota School of Architecture. This iconic property is all about private courtyard living at its finest, with polished concrete floors, soaring ceilings, clerestory windows and sliding walls of glass which open interior rooms to an outstanding 40'x40' walled-in private patio complete with central gardens and a 28'x14' inground swimming pool. Recent improvements include new roof (2025), new water heater and electrical updates. This one-of-a-kind home is located near the Ringling Museum of Art, universities and the 1920s-era Sara Bay Golf & Country Club. Its great location provides easy access to the best shopping, airport, museums, restaurants, celebrated contemporary and classic performing and visual arts, first class sandy beaches and everything Sarasota and the Gulf Coast of Florida is known for. Flood insurance is NOT required. NOTE: Architectural Drawings and survey are available for your kind review.
