Property Description
Step into a piece of Siesta Key history with The Morrison House, a charming Key West-style home nestled on one of the island’s most coveted canals. Located just 15 minutes from the open Gulf and a short distance to Sarasota Bay, this property is a boater’s paradise offering direct water access and beach access just a 10-minute walk away at the end of Shell Road. Originally built in the 1940s as part of the island’s original fishing village, the home underwent significant expansions in 1995 and later updates between 2007 and 2014. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and a versatile loft, this spacious home is ideal for hosting family and friends. With its historic designation and in-city limits, the property comes with unique benefits, including 7-day rental approval, relaxed building codes, and exemption from the FEMA-50 rule, giving you unparalleled flexibility for remodeling or expansion.
Recent updates include a new pool pump, repaired dock lift, a new electrical panel, a second AC system, and completed remediation, with mold testing confirming no presence of mold. The home is ready for your vision—whether restoring its heart pine floors and vintage architectural details or modernizing with premium finishes, the possibilities are endless. Outside, enjoy a working pool and spa, and a private dock with a lift, offering the ultimate coastal lifestyle. Picture yourself crafting a personalized retreat where you can relax in your custom-designed outdoor space, entertain with serene canal views, or take your boat directly to the Gulf for adventures.
With its prime location, historical charm, and boater-friendly features, The Morrison House is more than a home—it’s an opportunity to create a luxurious waterfront escape that blends timeless character with modern comforts. Don’t miss this rare chance to own a piece of Siesta Key’s past while living the waterfront lifestyle of your dreams.
