Waterfront Luxury Home in Sarasota’s Prestigious Bay Point! This waterfront luxury home on coveted Bay Point Drive offers the perfect blend of timeless Georgian Colonial architecture and modern, high-end upgrades. With over 6,300 sq. ft. of high-and-dry living space, this move-in ready residence remained untouched by recent hurricanes—an exceptional advantage in a prime coastal location. Inside, the home showcases high ceilings, an open floor plan, and multiple living spaces designed for both comfort and sophistication. The grand foyer leads to a formal dining room ideal for entertaining and a classic living room perfect for quiet gatherings. The expansive great room flows seamlessly into the chef’s kitchen, featuring premium appliances, abundant counter space, and a true gourmet layout designed for everyday living and hosting. The home offers four bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms, each recently updated with luxury finishes, and upgraded fixtures. A private home theater/media room provides an immersive retreat for movie nights and entertaining. The oversized primary suite is a standout, boasting a spa-like bathroom and an extraordinary walk-in closet with room for even the most extensive wardrobe. Every detail throughout the home reflects thoughtful design and elevated comfort. Car enthusiasts will appreciate the eight-car garage, offering extensive room for collectors, storage, or creative hobbies. Outdoors, the property embraces its waterfront setting along the picturesque Hudson Bayou. Enjoy breathtaking water views, enhanced by lush, refreshed landscaping and the iconic Selby Gardens as your backdrop. This is truly a boater’s paradise, offering direct deep-water access to Sarasota Bay in under two minutes via a private dock with a 27,000 lb lift (removable for a 70’ shallow-draft boat), 4’ depth at mean low water, and approximately 6 in the channel. The manicured landscape, shaded seating areas, and expansive terraces create a resort-style outdoor living experience perfect for both everyday relaxation and unforgettable events. This enchanting property has hosted weddings, milestone celebrations, and family gatherings—all framed by the natural beauty of the bayou. Situated between Harbor Acres and Downtown Sarasota, the home offers unmatched convenience—just minutes from world-class beaches, dining, shopping, marinas, parks, and cultural attractions. More than a home, this is a legacy waterfront estate where luxury, lifestyle, and location come together in the most extraordinary way. Welcome to Bay Point!
