The story
Under Construction. Introducing 1738 7th Street, a brand-new modern luxury residence offering 3,337 square feet of refined coastal living on a 42 x 130 lot in downtown Sarasota's Gillespie Park neighborhood. This thoughtfully designed 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home delivers the privacy of a standalone property with the architectural cohesion of a boutique collection. Behind a premium plaster facade and 8-foot hand-crafted black iron impact-rated entry doors, the home opens to an expansive open-concept main level anchored by soaring 21-foot ceilings. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the private outdoor living space and flood the interior with natural light. The professional chef's kitchen features a 48-inch Thor gas range with six sealed burners, integrated griddle, and dual convection ovens. A commanding center island anchors the space with a Karran stainless undermount sink, custom-painted bespoke cabinetry, and signature matte black hardware. The adjacent butler's pantry includes an oversized walk-in, 64-inch Electrolux refrigerator and freezer column suite, and built-in microwave. A dedicated beverage gallery with dual-zone wine refrigeration and high-capacity ice maker rounds out the hospitality wing. The first-floor primary suite serves as a private sanctuary overlooking a hedged-in patio, with an adjoining sitting room or home office, a spa-inspired bath with large-format marble tile, an architectural glass-enclosed wet room with deep soaking tub and multi-head shower system, polished nickel double vanity, and a massive custom walk-in closet. Upstairs, 10-foot ceilings continue across four generously proportioned guest bedrooms with high-profile windows. Two oversized Jack-and-Jill marble bathrooms feature floor-to-ceiling showers, custom storage niches, double vanities, and private water closets. A detached two-car garage delivers secure covered off-street parking, a premium and increasingly rare feature in the downtown Sarasota core. Structural provisions are in place for a future ADU above the garage, offering flexibility for a guest suite, studio, or additional living space. The outdoor living space features an expansive large-format paver patio and low-maintenance turf lawn. The backyard is designed to accommodate a future private pool addition, allowing buyers to customize to their preference. Hedged privacy screening frames the space. Additional highlights include a designer powder room, first-floor laundry, 2-zone HVAC, 200-amp electrical, designer LED recessed lighting, 8-foot black iron French doors, weathershed wide-plank flooring, and Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace paint with Revere Pewter cabinetry. Exterior touches include a crushed shell driveway. Est. completion September 30, 2026. Renderings are illustrative; actual construction may vary.
