This stunning 4-bedroom home, located on the tranquil Bay Isles Waterway, offers a luxurious lifestyle within the popular Bayou neighborhood of the Longboat Key Club. With a thoughtfully designed open floor plan, the home features high ceilings and expansive glass walls that allow natural light to flood the space, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. The modern kitchen seamlessly flows into the family room and overlooks the large pool, while the formal dining room is conveniently situated to connect with the elegant living room. On the main level, the private and spacious primary bedroom suite offers a luxurious retreat, complete with a walk-in closet large enough to rival a room. Ideal for both relaxation and entertaining, the outdoor living space is equally impressive, with an outdoor kitchen on the lanai, perfect for al fresco dining while enjoying the large, heated pool. Guests and family will appreciate the privacy offered by the three generously sized bedrooms located on the upper level. The home also features a deep-water dock with the capacity to accommodate a 50-foot boat, providing easy access to the bay and the Gulf of Mexico. The property sits at an elevation of 11.6 feet, meeting FEMA standards, ensuring peace of mind and security. Owning a home in the Bayou includes a membership to the exclusive Bay Isles Beach Club, along with the added security of 24-hour manned guard gates. Ideally located, the community offers easy access to the Longboat Key Club's golf course, tennis courts, pro shops, and restaurants (membership required), as well as the nearby Publix shopping plaza. Situated at the southern tip of Longboat Key, you are just a short distance from St. Armands Circle and its unique boutiques and restaurants, while Sarasota's vibrant cultural and dining attractions are only minutes away across the bay.
