Property Description

Nestled behind stately wrought-iron gates, this 38-acre private estate at 4610 Hidden River Road features two riverfront homes along the tranquil Myakka River: a grand main residence with two oversized garages (each for two cars plus workspace) & a private guest or caretaker’s cottage in the exclusive Hidden River Aviation Community. This exceptional property blends manicured pastures, private skies, abundant wildlife, & unspoiled vistas with timeless European craftsmanship, offering an unparalleled lifestyle in East Sarasota’s countryside. A sweeping circular drive with majestic porte cochère leads to an impressive main residence. Inside, soaring wood-beamed ceilings & an antique-brick fireplace rise to the rafters as sunlight pours through walls of glass. The open floor plan frames stunning views of a tranquil pond, sparkling saltwater pool, & screened cabana surrounded by mature palms & oaks. The showpiece kitchen pairs beauty & performance with granite countertops, professional-grade stainless appliances, gas cooktop, smart refrigeration, wine storage, & custom lighting. A nearby powder room & full laundry add convenience. The dining room opens to a spacious deck overlooking pastoral scenery, perfect for sunset gatherings or evenings by the fire pit. The 1,472-square-foot primary retreat features a 13-foot ceiling, triple sliding doors, private decks, dual walk-in closets, seating area, kitchenette, & additional laundry. The spa-like bath offers marble vanities, dual water closets, linen storage, & a walk-in shower with three showerheads supported by a tankless gas system. A versatile bonus room with full bath serves as an office, media lounge, or guest bedroom. Travertine & wood flooring, a three-zone climate system & integrated security ensure comfort & peace of mind. The garages double as workshops with sinks, storage, & a pet station. Across the drive, a charming two-bedroom cottage ideal for guests or staff includes kitchen, bath, laundry & fenced yard. Outdoors, the estate feels like a private resort. A resurfaced saltwater pool and screened cabana with outdoor shower invite year-round enjoyment. Equestrian amenities include a goat barn, two-stall horse barn with tack room, four fenced pastures, multiple wells under agricultural exemption. A large hangar & metal storage building for aircraft, hobbies, or business use served by a private fuel station. With no HOA or deed restrictions, owners have total flexibility. For aviation enthusiasts, neighborhood roads function as taxiways leading to a 2,525-foot illuminated runway at Hidden River Airport (FAA 22FA). Minutes from downtown Sarasota, UTC, dining, arts & Gulf beaches, this estate offers rare versatility, perhaps the most unique property in all of Florida!
