  • Description
    Welcome to Casa Della Fontana The Fountain House. Nestled on the tranquil north end of Siesta Key, this gated waterfront estate is a blend of seaside serenity, architectural distinction, and lifestyle luxury. Perched on a deep, sailboat accessible bayou that connects to the Intracoastal Waterway, the almost half acre lot provides generous room for outdoor living, boat docking, and privacy. Built by Magnum Builders, this residence was recently transformed through a multi year, high end renovation to blend modern amenities with timeless character. The home is engineered with concrete footings, steel pilings, and reinforced concrete/rebar, designed for storm resilience. A Spanish barrel tile roof (2024), hurricane rated garage doors and a whole house generator round out the safety and durability features. This residence spans 6,827?sq.?ft of air conditioned living space offering 4 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and 1 half bath. At the heart of the home is the great room, soaring to 20 foot ceilings, commanding sweeping water views, and anchored by a two story library wall. A gallery and loft overlook the formal dining space, and elegant iron railings and hand hewn wood trestles bring an artisanal, Old World feel. A hidden wood paneled staircase adds a dramatic, secretive touch. The gourmet kitchen is outfitted with Wolf, Sub Zero, and Miele appliances, quartzite countertops, a coffered ceiling, a waterfront breakfast nook, and a walk in pantry. Hand hewn beams extend throughout the kitchen and lanai, harmonizing the interior and exterior aesthetic. The primary suite is a sanctuary: two private balconies, dual bathrooms, a central walk in shower with dual entry, and twin walk in closets. The guest wing, with three bedrooms and three baths, provides privacy and independent access to the driveway. Additional interior amenities include a media/game room, office/library, elevator, high ceilings, built in features, central vacuum, and smart home automation (Control4).
