Waterfront resort-style living in a gated community with breathtaking views over Little Sarasota Bay. This third-level end unit, with elevator access, lives like it's new and offers three bedrooms, three full ensuite baths, a screened/glassed-in lanai for entertaining, all while watching spectacular sunsets over the Intracoastal Waterway, Casey Key, Siesta Key and the Gulf of Mexico. This designer renovated unit offers one of the largest floor plans in the development and gives you an open-air feel, with an abundance of natural light. The expansive kitchen has stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, dinette room, quartzite countertops and plenty of pantry storage. You'll also find engineered hardwood floors, volume ceilings, upgraded baseboards, new solid wood, five-panel interior doors and designer chandeliers. And it's great to know that the AC system was installed in 2019, along with the electrical panel, water heater in 2023, and new impact windows and lanai sliding glass doors installed in 2023, just in case the weather gets fickle. The community has a renovated clubhouse featuring a catering kitchen with countertop seating, a fully stocked reading library, a professional fitness room, an entertainment and media area and a dining room. The amenities also include a heated pool and spa with an expansive sundeck, a grass-thatched tiki hut with grilling stations, a lit tennis court, two lit pickleball courts, a kayak launch and a 500-yard elevated wood boardwalk that meanders through lush mangrove and palm fields that lead out to a handsome observation pier that provides stunning sunsets and excellent fishing. This is an amazing location because you're on the water, inside a gated community and are very close to nearby restaurants and shopping. Bike the Legacy Trail which offers 20 miles of bicycling. The beaches are so close, eight miles to Siesta Key, the No. 1 beach in the U.S., and just four miles to Nokomis Beach. It's a quick drive to downtown Venice and Sarasota for restaurants and the performing arts, including ballet, opera, concerts and musicals. Visit this unique waterfront community and don't forget to check out the private oversized two-car garage.
