About this home
Virtually Staged. Completely renovated and ideally located in the waterfront community of Baywood Colony, this beautifully updated villa offers the perfect blend of modern comfort and coastal lifestyle. Just one block from Little Sarasota Bay and only moments to Siesta Key, this home places you right where you want to be. Inside, the updates shine from the moment you walk in. The open living and dining areas feel bright and welcoming, enhanced by new flooring and a warm wood-paneled ceiling that adds character and charm. Large sliding glass doors lead to the enclosed lanai, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow and offering a versatile space to relax or entertain. The kitchen has been fully renovated with new cabinetry, countertops, and stainless steel appliances, delivering a clean, modern look with functional design. Both bathrooms have also been beautifully updated, and new hurricane impact windows in the main living areas provide added peace of mind along with energy efficiency. The layout offers two comfortable bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with its own private bath. The second bedroom is well-positioned for guests or flexible use as a home office. Step outside and enjoy the community’s true highlight—direct access to Little Sarasota Bay, where residents can take in stunning water views, launch a kayak, or simply relax by the water. Baywood Colony also features a heated community pool and well-maintained grounds, creating a laid-back, coastal atmosphere. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a seasonal retreat, this move-in ready villa combines thoughtful updates, a functional layout, and an unbeatable location near Siesta Key, dining, and shopping. **THIS PROPERTY QUALIFIES FOR A 1% LENDER INCENTIVE IF USING PREFERRED LENDER.
