Set along an exclusive, banyan-lined enclave of Manasota Key, this exceptional bayfront residence offers a rare blend of privacy, refinement, and effortless coastal living. With approximately 120 feet of direct frontage on Lemon Bay and a deeded 6-foot beach access just across the street, the property delivers an enviable bay-to-Gulf lifestyle in one of Florida’s last unspoiled barrier island settings. A comprehensive series of recent upgrades—including a new tile roof (2023), dual A/C systems (2024), new septic and water lines (2025), new sod and landscaping (April 2026), and impact-resistant windows & protection with electric hurricane shutters—ensures a turnkey experience defined by both sophistication and peace of mind. Inside, the light-filled interior reflects a relaxed yet sophisticated coastal aesthetic, highlighted by a completely remodeled kitchen (2025) with 42” soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, decorative backsplash, and stainless appliances. The flexible floor plan offers a first-level primary suite—currently utilized as a home office—along with guest accommodations, while the second level is dedicated to two private master suites with walk-in closets and a shared sitting area, creating an ideal retreat for family or guests. Expansive living spaces transition seamlessly outdoors to a full-length screened lanai with new composite decking, where tranquil bay views, passing boats, and abundant wildlife create a constantly evolving backdrop. An additional paver patio offers the perfect setting to create your own firepit retreat, inviting cozy evenings under the stars. This freshly landscaped residence also features a circular drive, shared dock, and outdoor shower, completing this private waterfront sanctuary. Perfectly positioned for both seclusion and convenience, this remarkable property offers close proximity to waterfront dining, marinas, golf, and the cultural offerings of nearby Englewood, Venice, and Sarasota—while remaining a peaceful retreat defined by natural beauty, quiet surroundings, and direct access to the best of Southwest Florida coastal living.
