Virtually Staged. Directly across the street from one of the most exceptional community-owned marinas on Florida’s west coast, this beautifully renovated waterfront residence offers remarkable views and an extraordinary boating lifestyle in Southbay Yacht and Racquet Club. Recent exterior enhancements include a brand-new tile roof, fresh exterior paint, a redesigned front vestibule with a more modern aesthetic, and updated outdoor lighting at the front of the home. Considered one of the region’s finest private residential marinas, Southbay’s seven-acre deep-water basin accommodates kayaks, jet skis, sailboats, powerboats, catamarans and yachts up to 55 feet. With six feet of water at mean low tide, the marina offers slips for 175 resident-owned boats. Southbay’s HOA fees are just $218.87 per month, and marina slips remain highly affordable, with water and electric included. With the marina quite literally in your front yard and the charming Southbay neighborhood stretching behind you, this fully renovated residence sits on one of only two waterfront streets in the community. It features three bedrooms, four full baths and a versatile flex space that can serve as an office or fourth bedroom, with beautiful water views from many rooms. Inside, an elegant tray-ceiling entry opens to porcelain plank tile flooring and expansive living spaces filled with natural light from abundant impact-rated windows and sliding glass doors. The beautifully designed entertainment kitchen and breakfast area flow seamlessly into the spacious family and dining rooms, creating a refined yet relaxed setting for everyday living and entertaining. The outdoor living space is equally impressive, with a custom-built pool and spa framed by a panoramic clear-span pool cage, an expansive stone-tile sun deck and generous covered areas for outdoor dining and entertaining. The private primary suite offers double-door access to the pool and spa, plus a luxurious bath with a deep soaking tub, frameless glass shower, dual vanities, large-format tile and two custom walk-in closets with built-in organization systems. Two guest suites each feature a private en-suite bath and custom closets; one enjoys marina views, while the other opens directly to the pool terrace. Additional features include a three-car garage, brick-paver driveway and mature tropical landscaping. Just steps away, the recently renovated Southbay Yacht and Racquet Club clubhouse overlooks the marina and offers a 99-person ballroom with catering kitchen and dance floor, community gathering room with piano and entertainment area, fitness center, card room, library and meeting room. Residents also enjoy a geothermal-heated pool, youth pool, covered waterfront patios, three tennis courts, four pickleball courts, bocce ball, shuffleboard, basketball court, kayak storage, waterfront park, 20 acres of common grounds and five miles of scenic sidewalks. Southbay is golf-cart friendly, with an active social calendar featuring weekly gatherings, seasonal events and a vibrant Power and Sail Club. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy marina views, waterfront living and one of the Gulf Coast’s most beloved boating communities.
