1556 Eastbrook Drive

On an elevated lot in the quiet, refined community of Kentwood Estates near Oyster Bay, this modern residence exudes Zen-like sophistication. From its contemporary architecture to its park-like half-acre grounds, 1556 Eastbrook Drive offers a uniquely compelling experience. Vaulted ceilings and insightfully placed windows create an ethereal ambiance as you enter this home. Bleached oak flooring (throughout the entire home) and abundant LED lighting create a bright, inviting environment. And, with concrete block construction, impact windows and doors, and a location well above flood zone, you’ll be secure no matter what the environment. Created for entertaining and effortless daily living, the upscale kitchen provides everything a home-chef wants, such as Thermador appliance package including custom separate built-in refrigerator and freezer, 48-inch dual fuel professional range and dishwasher; built-in drawer microwave, custom cabinetry, aluminum tambour, quartz countertops, rare quartzite backsplash, two sinks with disposals, Kohler Karbon articulating faucets and reverse osmosis drinking water system. Tucked behind the kitchen is a large utility area functioning as a butler’s pantry/work zone with John Boos countertops and wine cooler. On the other side of the kitchen is a full bath that serves as the pool bath. The main living area presents a 20-foot vaulted ceiling, architectural windows, gas fireplace, built-ins with accent lighting and a wall of sliding glass that leads to the outdoor retreat and pool. This central living area, including the open kitchen and dining space, ideally separates the guest rooms from the owners’ suite. Going from the main living area into the owners’ suite, you enter a large private area that can serve as an office/den, exercise space or quiet reflection area with its five oversized windows. The suite continues with a generous sleeping area and sliding glass doors. The adjacent spa-like bath is exquisite with floor-to-ceiling tile, designer fixtures, a multi-head shower and views of the tropical foliage outside. Walk-in closets include built-in custom cabinetry and remote control hangers. On the other side of the home are two generous guest rooms and full bath. The outdoor living area provides the epitome of Florida lifestyle. Accessed from the main living area and the owners’ suite, it offers ample covered sitting areas to accompany the outdoor kitchen with an Alfresco Grill, dining area and entertaining space with cypress ceiling and cabinetry. The heated saltwater pool includes fountains, underwater lighting, and an abundance of deck space to take in the sun and fun. The professionally landscaped half-acre lot is ideal for sports, pets, gardening or simply a park-like respite in daily life. The significantly oversized, climate-controlled garage is large enough for two full-sized vehicles and a work area, and it also includes an electric car charger. Essentially a smart home, most functions can be controlled through apps on your smartphone, as audio, security, climate, lighting and more are in your hands. Additionally, the owners replaced all three HVAC systems and invested more than $100,000 in landscaping. Optimally in the desired West of Trail area, this residence is close to Red Rock Park, The Field Club (historic private waterfront club with boating facilities), South Side Village, access to Siesta Key and everything that makes Sarasota a place to call home.
