Premier Access to Downtown Sarasota! Private Pool, Game Room, & More!

Welcome to The Ringling House, a historic home located west of the trail in downtown Sarasota, near Southside Village, Selby Gardens, Marina Jack, and just a short drive to St. Armands Circle and the beaches of Lido Key, Longboat Key, and Siesta Key! This historic home, originally built in 1923 by Leon Pickett, Chief Engineer for the Ringling Brothers, preserves its historic features, including beamed ceilings and wood floors, while adding modern conveniences like a large stainless steel and granite kitchen and updated bathrooms.

The spacious four-bedroom, three-bath, two-story home is filled with natural light from large windows that overlook the lush tropical surroundings of a walled and gated estate-sized lawn and courtyard with a private heated pool, spa, and pavers. This unique home offers two king bedroom suites, each with its own attached bath. One is on the main level with French doors leading to its own patio area, and the second suite is upstairs. Two additional guest bedrooms and one more full bathroom complete the house, making it the perfect vacation space for up to eight people and ideal for two families to share.

With wood floors, high ceilings, built-in cabinets, and bookshelves, this home is beautifully and fully turnkey furnished for your comfort as a home away from home while on vacation. The expansive living room features polished Saltillo tiles and large glass windows that bring the tropical gardens indoors. The light, bright kitchen boasts white cabinetry, granite counters, a glass tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, with a conveniently located laundry room off the kitchen. The dining area offers seating for over eight people to gather around the table together, with a smaller eating area in the kitchen for more relaxed gatherings.

You'll cherish both the indoor and outdoor space and privacy this estate provides while savoring the downtown lifestyle near restaurants, boutiques, and an endless variety of arts and culture. The outdoor heated pool and spa offer hours of relaxation with several lounge chairs, sitting areas, and a BBQ gas grill. Additionally, the Cabana House/garage provides a separate game/entertainment area with a pool table. Lido Beach, Longboat Key, and Siesta Key Beach are all just 10-15 minutes away. You will never run out of things to do when you choose The Ringling House as your home base!
