Rare Waterfront Lot with Direct Intracoastal and Easy Gulf Access. A Boater’s Dream in Baywood Colony.
Discover a truly unique opportunity to build your custom waterfront retreat on this prime 0.36-acre lot in the highly desirable Baywood Colony. With direct views of the Intracoastal Waterway and breathtaking western sunsets, this Premium Lot offers the perfect combination of privacy, water access, and location.
This exceptional lot is already equipped with a private dock, a 16,000 lb boat lift, a jet-ski lift, and a dredged passage—providing seamless access to the Gulf with no fixed bridges. It’s a rare find for boating enthusiasts seeking convenience and open water freedom.
The lot was previously improved with a home, and existing utilities remain on-site, potentially qualifying the buyer for reduced or waived impact fees for new construction.
A standout feature is the transferable mangrove trimming permit, ensuring you’ll always enjoy unobstructed views across the Bay, a valuable and uncommon advantage for waterfront living.
Ideally located just minutes from downtown Sarasota, Siesta Key Beach, and Sarasota Memorial Hospital, this homesite offers quick access to world-class dining, shopping, healthcare, and cultural experiences, all while providing a peaceful and private retreat.
This is one of the few remaining waterfront parcels offering this level of access, infrastructure, and scenic beauty. Don’t miss your chance to create your dream home in one of Sarasota’s most coveted coastal enclaves.
