About this home

Virtually Staged. This exquisite turnkey-furnished 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom villa has been completely and meticulously renovated, with no expense spared. Beyond its stunning finishes, this home offers something even more valuable: Exceptional Peace of Mind! Major infrastructure updates include Hurricane-Impact Windows and Sliders throughout, new electrical and plumbing, a 2023 HVAC system, 2026 water heater, 2021 roof, and fresh interior and exterior paint. EVEN BETTER...Insurance (including Flood, Hurricane, and Hazard coverage) and Exterior Building Maintenance/Repairs, are all included in the monthly HOA fee, creating a truly low-stress ownership experience. Inside, the open-concept floor plan is bright, inviting, and effortlessly elegant. A soothing neutral palette, recessed LED lighting, solid-core doors with iron hardware, and wood-look luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout create a sophisticated, modern, and allergen-friendly living environment. The expansive eat-in kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Features include GE stainless steel appliances, a slide-in 5-burner convection range, exterior-vented architectural hood, French-door refrigerator with bottom freezer, custom cabinetry with crown molding, soft-close hardware, dovetail drawers, and gorgeous quartzite countertops with a full-height backsplash. The adjacent dining area is enhanced by a custom buffet bar with lighted glass display cabinetry, offering both stylish storage and functionality. A spacious utility and storage area provides ample room for bikes, beach gear, and recreational equipment, along with a 2026 GE stackable washer and dryer for added convenience. Single-story living makes daily life effortless, while the covered carport includes a Tesla charging outlet. Outside, your private patio overlooks lush tropical landscaping, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, grilling, or simply relaxing in the Florida sunshine. Windward Bay offers an exceptional resort-style lifestyle on 26 beautifully landscaped bayfront acres. Residents enjoy three beach accesses, direct bay access, kayak and paddleboard launches and storage ($35/year), plus two marinas with boat slips available on a first-come, first-served basis for just $50/month. Owners may even install their own boat lift, as lifts are permitted. Community amenities include two heated pools, tennis courts, pickleball, shuffleboard, a clubhouse with fitness center, locker rooms, saunas, lending library, and a fully equipped catering kitchen with banquet hall for social gatherings and special events. The grounds stretch along nearly half a mile of Sarasota Bay and feature scenic walking and biking paths shaded by majestic banyan trees, accented by colorful bougainvillea and fragrant lemon trees. Windward Bay is both pet-friendly, allowing two pets up to 75 pounds each (for owners and renters!), and rental-friendly, permitting two leases per year with a one-month minimum. Adding another layer of confidence for buyers, the community has successfully completed its structural Milestone Inspection and has been re-certified for 10 years. This is a rare opportunity to own a fully renovated, move-in-ready villa that combines luxury, convenience, storm resilience, and carefree coastal living in one of Longboat Key's most desirable bay-to-beach communities.
