About this home
Set within a living canopy of mangroves and coastal trees, this BAYFRONT residence invites a more immersive relationship with Sarasota Bay—where filtered light, birdsong, and gentle water movement define everyday living. Behind the gates of Bay Isles on Longboat Key, this approximately 3,000-square-foot waterfront residence offers the ease and scale of a single-family home with the security and convenience of condominium living. With three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, the layout lives expansively, enhanced by abundant storage and thoughtful separation of living spaces.
Floor-to-ceiling glass sliders in the main living areas and primary suite face east, capturing peaceful sunrise light over Sarasota Bay in a setting best described as park-like waterfront—where mature coastal trees frame the water, creating a serene, private “treehouse” ambiance. Boats glide through the mangrove preserve and lagoon toward open bay waters, accompanied by birdsong and rustling leaves. Two balconies extend the living space outdoors, including a nearly 400 sq ft screened lanai ideal for relaxed coastal living.
The primary suite features bay views from bed, terrace access, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-like bath with a freestanding soaking tub, dual vanities, and a glass-enclosed shower. The second and third bedrooms share access to a west-facing balcony, offering sunset light and cross-breezes. The kitchen is both functional and social, featuring quartz countertops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, generous prep space, a built-in desk nook, mini-fridge and wet bar—well suited for entertaining or casual mornings.
A dedicated walk-in laundry room adds practicality with a butcher-block workspace, hutch, and tool cubby. Comfort and peace of mind are prioritized with two A/C zones, new condensers (2025), and two hot water tanks (2021) equipped with a flood-stop device. Brand new carpet and paint.
Additional highlights include air-conditioned storage, one assigned garage parking space, and exceptional closet capacity—five linen closets, three pantry closets, and three walk-in closets. Residents enjoy on-site management, a fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, a heated resort-style pool, car washing area, and EV charging stations. The building features a brand-new roof completed in 2025.
Pet-friendly. The location is as compelling as the home itself: secure, serene, and walkable. Adjacent to the Longboat Key Club Marina, and just blocks from Publix, CVS, the post office, and banking, this location allows for a genuinely walkable daily rhythm—rare on Longboat Key.
As part of Bay Isles, residents also enjoy access to the Bay Isles Beach Club, a private Gulf-front retreat with gated parking, pavilions, grilling areas, restrooms, and seating for sunset views. Deeded beach access ensures a premier spot on the sand. Membership to the nearby Longboat Key Club is available, offering championship golf, world-class tennis, a full-service spa and wellness center, waterfront dining.

The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
Actual list price: $1,495,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 27% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
- Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures; sq ft can't see it.
- The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
- Outliers skew it — one flip or distressed sale in the comps drags the whole $/sq ft up or down.
- Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
- This home: 130 days on market vs. a 45-day community median
- 4831 active listings competing, 1581 under contract
For reference, this home is listed at $1,495,000 ($487/sq ft) — a number set with analysis a Messtimate can't do.

Frequently asked questions
Why might my property taxes differ from the current owner's?
Florida's Save Our Homes rule caps annual assessment increases for homesteaded owners, and the assessment can be re-set after a sale. As a result a new owner's bill may differ from the seller's. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Where does the flood-zone information come from?
The flood designation shown (Zone X) comes from the FEMA flood map and is provided for general information. Confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
