About this home
482 E ROYAL FLAMINGO DRIVE
Under Construction. Bird Key—Sarasota’s premier island address nestled just off the John Ringling Causeway between vibrant downtown Sarasota and the beaches of Lido and Longboat—provides the setting for this custom-built Allegra Homes masterpiece. The “Laurie Coastal” floor plan delivers approx. 2,757 sq ft of refined, light-filled living with 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a dedicated study, and a versatile bonus room that adapts beautifully as media, fitness, or play space. A chef’s kitchen anchors the home with Wolf cooking, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and a Cove dishwasher, complemented by an oversized island and generous cabinetry. The great room’s pocketing glass sliders dissolve the boundary to a screened lanai appointed for true Florida living with a private saltwater pool/spa and tongue-and-groove ceiling—an effortless backdrop for everyday relaxation and elegant entertaining. Engineered for coastal living, the residence features impact Low-E windows/doors and an elevated foundation: a 3-course stem wall constructed above the Base Flood Elevation. Additional upgrades include a tankless water heater, professional landscaping, paver driveway, and a 3-car garage with epoxy flooring. From this coveted island of beautifully manicured streets and canal/bayfront homes, you’re moments to St. Armands Circle, downtown dining and arts, world-class marinas, and under construction is the new Bird Key Yacht Club; convenient to Sarasota–Bradenton International Airport (SRQ).

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.
