No water intrusion or damage to residence after past two storms: Exquisite home on the beach. Welcome to ARIA, a modern coastal sanctuary on the Gulf of Mexico, where luxury meets tranquility in a spectacular 3-bedroom plus office (or 4-bedroom) gulf-front residence. This architectural gem features expansive glass walls, clean lines, and angular details, seamlessly merging indoor elegance with the natural beauty of its beachfront setting. Enjoy the ultimate in modern living with a private pool and direct beach access via private walk-down stairs.
Located on the serene coveted south end of Longboat Key, ARIA offers stunning Gulf views from nearly every room. This exclusive enclave is built to the highest coastal construction standards and is secured within a gated community. The property features a scenic half-mile path perfect for walking, running, or simply enjoying the fresh sea air.
The residence boasts floor-to-ceiling impact glass that invites natural light and connects the indoor spaces to expansive sunset terraces with breathtaking Gulf and garden views. The open floor plan provides residents a harmonious blend of privacy and ample space for entertaining guests.
The outdoor summer kitchen, complete with a grilling station, enhances the home's appeal, offering comfort and convenience for alfresco dining. Step into the chef's kitchen, a culinary masterpiece outfitted with top-of-the-line Miele appliances, custom cabinetry, and sleek stone countertops. The walk-in pantry ensures ample storage for all culinary needs, making this kitchen a delight for both everyday meals and grand gatherings.

Modern amenities include advanced telecommunications wiring with high-speed cabling and a "home run" configuration, ensuring seamless communication throughout the residence. Outside, a private infinity-edge lap pool awaits, surrounded by expanded terraces with planters and a fire pit table. Direct access to an oversized, humidity-controlled garage, accommodating 3 to 5 cars, and a separate storage room offers added convenience.
The community amenities are equally impressive. An expansive paver terrace features a beautifully designed 67 ft x 42 ft community pool with a sculptural rain curtain. The elevated terrace and pool area provide picturesque views of the beach and Gulf, creating an ideal setting for relaxation and social gatherings.
At the heart of ARIA is the Wellness Center, a serene space overlooking a tranquil lagoon. It includes the latest fitness equipment, a Pilates and yoga studio, and a private massage salon, complemented by comfortable men's and women's locker rooms.

Adding to ARIA's allure is the historic Villa Am Meer, a 1935 Mediterranean estate meticulously restored to serve as the Aria Residents' Social Room/Clubhouse and resort-style guest suites. This 5,000-square-foot villa, originally built by German immigrant Dr. Hermann Kohl and his wife Hertha, retains its original charm with hand-painted ceramic tiles, stained glass windows, a fireplace, cypress ceilings, stone floors, and arched doorways. The villa features a living room, private dining room, catering kitchen, climate-controlled wine cellar, card room, and sunset terrace with a fire pit, offering a timeless blend of old-world elegance and contemporary luxury.
Experience unparalleled coastal living at ARIA, where every detail is designed for comfort, sophistication, and a seamless connection to the beauty of the Gulf of Mexico.
