Named the House of Columns by world-renowned, award-winning architect Carl Abbott, this palatial Bayfront estate stands as a singular expression of architectural distinction and craftsmanship. Encompassing close to five acres on the north end of Longboat Key spanning Sarasota Bay, the combined offering of 6610 and 6630 Gulf of Mexico Drive represents one of the most significant residential holdings available in the area, a legacy estate where endless views of sea and sky create an unforgettable backdrop for living. The property unfolds like a private peninsula, offering exceptional width, depth and privacy. On the eastern shoreline, calm bay waters reflect the morning light with open water, protected shoreline and bridgeless access to the Gulf of Mexico. The primary residence is gracefully positioned on the bayfront, designed to capture eastern exposure and long, tranquil water views across Sarasota Bay. Clean architectural lines, soaring interior volumes, and walls of glass create a continuous dialogue between interior and exterior. Ceilings soar up to 21 feet, allowing light to move freely throughout the home while maintaining warmth and livability. The elevator provides access across levels, while Lutron lighting and automated shades on every window and door allow the home to respond intuitively to the changing light of day. The residence has been impeccably maintained by its original owner, reflecting a level of care and stewardship rarely found. Infrastructure has been thoughtfully addressed, including a whole-home generator that ensures continuity and peace of mind. The owner’s garage sits under a cantilever with access to the interior elevator and an additional air-conditioned four-car garage with large workspace offers a total space for 6 cars and exceptional flexibility for collectors, hobbies or future customization. A lagoon-style pool sits within the landscape, offering a resort-like atmosphere while preserving privacy and water views. A private dock with two boat lifts provides immediate access to Sarasota Bay and the Intracoastal Waterway, creating a seamless boating lifestyle that complements the estate’s waterfrontage. The inclusion of 6630 Gulf of Mexico Drive allows owners to construct a guest house or secondary structure, offering flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, or staff accommodations, offering extraordinary future optionality and ensures the next owner retains control over one of Longboat Key’s irreplaceable resources, land. What ultimately distinguishes this offering is its irreplaceability. Estates of this size, with this combination of architectural pedigree, boating infrastructure, development flexibility and maintained condition are no longer being created. Despite its scale and seclusion, you are moments from the refined lifestyle Longboat Key is known for, private clubs, championship golf, fine dining, IMG Academy and the cultural offerings of Anna Maria Island, St. Armands Circle and downtown Sarasota just beyond the bridge. This is not merely a waterfront home, it is a generational legacy, unmatched in design, scale, privacy and location.

Regent’s Court: The Pinnacle of Luxury on Florida’s West Coast Regents Court: Where Legend Meets Luxury Beyond the gates of the Longboat Key Club lies an estate that doesn’t just live — it performs. A dramatic masterpiece perched on Florida’s west coast, this estate commands over an acre of pure beachfront with 150 feet of unspoiled Gulf frontage, where sky and water fuse in ever-changing hues at dawn and dusk. Your arrival is nothing short of cinematic: majestic wrought-iron gates part to reveal a sweeping driveway paved in artistic stone, each curve leading closer to the heart of the home. A side-entry garage, cavernous in its capacity, hides generous storage; beside it, a full-house generator promises unbroken comfort even when the world goes dark. Inside, every surface and silhouette feels sculpted for impact. Cream marble floors echo with light. Designer lighting drapes each room in mood and elegance. Premium stainless steel appliances anchor a gourmet kitchen, with a bar area that’s built for both intimate soirées and lavish celebrations. Across stately arches, French doors open into an office and dining space. Ascend via elevator through all four levels, each floor unveiling rooms with cathedral ceilings, balconies with sweeping views over the Gulf. The two-story library has custom woodwork. Adjacent to the large primary bedroom is the super-master bath with both tub and shower framing the Gulf in panoramic glory. On the second living level are three guest suites with private porches that render a daily spectacle — mornings bathed in soft dawn light over the sand dunes and the Gulf, evenings lit by fading sun dancing across the waves. French doors open wide, blurring the boundary between indoors and the beach. The third living level includes an all inclusive guest quarters—your private sky-retreat. Two bedrooms, two baths, a full kitchen, a spacious living and TV room. From its large, sweeping porch, the views stretch across Sarasota Bay and the Gulf’s glassy expanse. By day the Bay shimmers under sunlight, by dusk the city lights begin their soft glow. This is a space where family, friends—or guests—can escape, entertain, or simply soak in nature’s most breathtaking performances. Outside is not secondary, but rather the heart of this sanctuary. Lush tropical landscaping surrounds the estate. There is a NCAA lap pool with motorized cover, a deck edged with gas torches, fire pits that flicker under the stars. There’s an outdoor ice tub plus an outdoor kitchen with refrigerator and a gas grill. A special gym on the second floor is cooled to perfection, central control at your fingertips. Roll-safe shutters provide safety without sacrificing style. At every moment, this home evokes a rare elegance — you’re not just observing the sunset over the Gulf, you are enveloped by it. Minutes from Sarasota, St. Armand’s Circle, Anna Maria — yet here, time moves differently, more luxuriously. This is not just a home. This is a legacy.
