About this home
4035 BAY SHORE ROAD
An Architectural Masterpiece on Sarasota Bay. Commanding one of Sarasota’s most spectacular bayfront settings, this gated estate blends cutting-edge engineering with timeless coastal living. Built on 55 deep concrete piles extending 30 feet underground, the home is constructed entirely of cast-in-place concrete and masonry, including every slab and the roof, creating a true hurricane fortress designed to endure generations. A massive 8-car garage sits beneath this elevated residence on an oversized, fenced lot, offering both privacy and security. Inside, the open-concept layout was intentionally designed with no interior bearing walls, supported only by a few discreet columns per floor—allowing future owners to reimagine the floor plan freely to suit any lifestyle. Outdoors, the property feels like a private resort. The waterfront pool area features sunken seating and a swim-up bar, perfect for entertaining or soaking in Sarasota’s sunsets over the bay. An elevator serves all levels, including the roof, where there’s potential for an extraordinary rooftop terrace with panoramic views of Sarasota Bay and the skyline. Documents are currently being finalized for a dock permit, which will enhance the property’s existing direct Sarasota Bay access and allow for private boat docking in the future. 4035 Bay Shore Road isn’t just built, it’s engineered to impress. A home where modern strength meets pure waterfront serenity.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
