Perched at the merger of New Pass and the Gulf of Mexico, this extraordinary waterfront home dazzles among its peers. Located in the classic Lido Shores neighborhood, the home conveys the rich history of Sarasota through its variety of architectural details. From the elaborate millwork including seven-piece crown molding, three-piece casing and custom base, to the marble floors with brass inlay detail in the Master bath, the residence is a true showcase. Greeting guests upon entry is a giant aquarium while an Oval two-story ceiling detail adds elegance. Exterior rear views captivate the imagination with a terraces outdoor living bonanza. From the massive pool area complete with gro"o and firepits, surprises never stop whether inside or out. The homes design offers the owner excellent privacy from the street while at the same time takes ever advantage of the amazing views that the rear of the property offers of the crystal-clear waters of New Pass as it empties into the Gulf of Mexico. These views can be enjoyed from almost every room in the house and the rear porches that have raised the bar for the highest level of outdoor living. The roof line and plantation shu"ers give a West Indies feel while the contrast of light and dark is characteristically transitional.

The Fish Camp was built to honor the historic stilt homes that dot the waters of Charlo"e Harbor and would serve as dormitories for commercial fishermen during an era where boats only ran several miles offshore and fish were ne"ed by hand. The feeling evoked when arriving at the Fish Camp is that you are 1,000 miles away, detached from the constant of time. There are no cars on the island, and the lush mangroves and tropical native vegetation envelop you like the breeze of salty air. Building on a remote island presents unique building challenges and unusual feats of ingenuity. The vision was to build a family compound, a place where they could unplug and retreat, a place where you could be nothing but in the present. Renowned Architect Paul Konstant designed the structure with a warm, inviting front elevation enticing visitors to stop by for a spell on the front porch—only to discover the expansive master living area inside followed by a cascading row of individual co"ages laddering toward the shoreline. Every detail was taken into consideration to create a seamless integration of the exterior and the interior, including pocketing all the doors into the walls to ensure an uninterrupted flow to the outside. Staying true to Florida’s heritage was defining in their careful selection of materials. More than 22,000 linear feet of Florida Southern yellow pine covers the walls and ceilings, complementing the spirit of the architecture. As a final nod to the old fishing dormitories, the owner Rich Perrone, a builder of luxury custom homes, revisited his early days as a carpenter and handcra!ed a bunk room outfi"ed with rustic bunk beds reminiscent of camp.
