About this home
Some spend years searching for the perfect spot. This is it. A rare buildable lot on Bay Island—known as the gateway to Siesta Key, this intimate 169-home neighborhood at the northern tip of Siesta Key, surrounded by deep turquoise waters and just minutes from everything that makes Sarasota legendary. With Lush mature landscaping that frames the property, create the coastal estate you've always envisioned. Just steps away from America's #1 beach, with Siesta Key's famous powdered sugar-like quartz sand, as well as a Quick drive across the north bridge to downtown Sarasota's world-class dining, arts, and culture or for a trip to St. Armands Circle for a bit of shopping just over the Ringling Bridge. This location truely has it all. Why Bay Island? This isn't just a lot. It's your blank canvas on a barrier island where homes rarely turn over and vacant land is almost unheard of. Picture your custom-designed retreat—morning coffee on a sun-drenched lanai, evening walks to the beach, and weekend cruises. Come see all the possibilities
Local Insight
This bay-view lot in AE flood zone is priced aggressively at $78/sqft, but you'll need to factor in mandatory flood insurance, elevated construction costs, and potential building restrictions before committing—the water view appeal can disappear quickly once you're dealing with compliance and premiums. At less than a third of an acre, you're looking at a tight footprint that limits what you can actually build, so verify setbacks and lot coverage rules with the city before making assumptions about your final home size. The lack of HOA is a plus, but the Bay Island location means you're paying waterfront prices without knowing yet what your out-of-pocket risk will be during hurricane season.
