About This Property
Rarely available and beautifully positioned, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath fully furnished residence with UNOBSTRUCTED FULL BAY VIEWS invites you to experience true beach-to-bay living in the coveted community of Banyan Bay on the north end of Longboat Key. From sunrise coffees on your private terrace to evenings spent watching dolphins glide across the bay, this home offers an effortless blend of comfort, coastal elegance, and unforgettable daily moments. Set within an intimate community of just 26 Bayside and 18 Gulf side residences, Banyan Bay provides a peaceful retreat with exceptional amenities. Start your mornings with a stroll along your private Gulf beach access, join neighbors for a friendly match on the tennis/pickleball court, launch a kayak directly onto the bay, or unwind by the heated pool after a day on the water. A day dock/fishing pier, fitness center, clubhouse, and convenient bicycle storage further enhance the lifestyle of this warm, social community. Inside, more than 1,400 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space showcases a spacious kitchen with granite countertops, SS appliances, and a breakfast bar and nook ideal for casual dining or gathering with friends. The open great-room layout features soaring ceilings that fill the home with natural light and frame the captivating bayfront scenery. The primary suite offers its own private terrace overlooking the shimmering water—perfect for quiet mornings or evening breezes. A guest suite on the main level ensures comfort and privacy, while a charming spiral staircase leads to a versatile loft and a spacious third bedroom suite—ideal for hosting visitors, working remotely, or enjoying a dedicated creative space. Terra cotta tile flooring throughout the first level brings warmth and coastal character, while Tommy Bahama inspired finishes make this turnkey furnished residence with a NEW AC (Aug 2026) truly move-in-ready. Beyond the community, you’ll find yourself within walking-distance to restaurants and the Centre Shops. Durante Park and the Longboat Key Center for the Arts are just moments away, adding convenience and charm to the neighborhood. Discover the rare combination of lifestyle, location, and waterfront living that only Banyan Bay can offer—where every day feels like a coastal escape.
