Waterfront views without the waterfront stress? This is the one! Luxury elevated living directly on Sarasota Bay offers stunning waterfront views with mainland convenience and peace of mind. Impact windows, brand-new roofs just installed, milestone structural integrity inspection passed, and association reserves funded (per reserve study). Private two-car garage plus ~250 sq ft of climate-controlled storage on the ground level. Take the private elevator up (no stairs required) to the single-level living area perched directly on Sarasota Bay. Soaring vaulted ceilings with tongue-and-groove finishes, plantation shutters, and a wood-burning fireplace make the Great Room the heart of this 2,100 sq ft coastal retreat, where natural light and breathtaking bayfront views take center stage. This peninsula-like vantage point ensures extraordinary, uninterrupted views — golden sunsets can be enjoyed from the enclosed patio, the formal dining room, and even while standing at the kitchen sink. The enclosed patio offers amazing flexibility: 350+ sq ft with sliders open for a fresh bay breeze or closed with the dedicated AC split system for comfortable water views in all seasons. You simply must see the Downtown Sarasota skyline and Ringling Bridge lit up at night. An updated kitchen with a tasteful coastal ambiance features a custom Italian glass backsplash and premium Bosch dual wall ovens. Tucked away from the entertaining space, the primary suite offers its own water views and a spacious ensuite. The versatile guest bedroom includes a custom Murphy bed built-in — perfect for visiting guests or easily converted back into a quiet home office. Various interior storage closets, along with a full-size washer and dryer, provide the comforts of a single-family home. Tucked quietly away from busy downtown or barrier island traffic, you’ll enjoy a natural waterfront experience while being just a 20-minute drive to Downtown Sarasota or Anna Maria Island. Conquistador Bay Club is a boutique development with only 28 units spread across five buildings, where residents enjoy a community pool and spa along with private kayak access. The elevated block construction stood strong through the active 2024 storm season, offering lasting peace of mind for years to come. IMG Golf and waterfront dining are just a chip shot away in this quiet, bike-friendly neighborhood. A short drive to SRQ Airport, this residence offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility. Easy to show — reach out to see the remarkable waterfront views in person!
