About this home
Welcome to 1849 Baywood Drive in Sarasota, Florida 34231 Situated on a .26-acre lot with an impressive 92-foot seawall, this cleared and ready-to-build property offers direct canal access to little Sarasota bay with no fixed bridges and just minutes from the Gulf of Mexico. The property is also walking distance to Siesta Key Beach, consistently ranked as America’s #1 beach, celebrated for its powdery white quartz sand and turquoise water. Whether you’re an avid boater, fisherman, or simply love being near the water, this property is your gateway to the quintessential Florida lifestyle.
Imagine stepping out of your custom-built home and cruising through the open waters of Sarasota Bay in minutes, or exploring the turquoise waters near Midnight Pass, less than ten minutes away by boat. Living on a deep-water canal offers year-round enjoyment, from sunrise paddle boarding and kayaking to evening fishing and dolphin watching right from your own backyard. Local marine life includes snook, redfish, tarpon, mangrove snapper, and even gentle manatees that frequent these calm channels.
This highly desirable area of Sarasota has county-approved residential construction, saving you time and streamlining the path to building your custom coastal retreat. Custom builders in the area are well-versed in designing elevated, contemporary, and Key West–inspired homes to complement the waterfront setting—perfect for showcasing panoramic canal views and breathtaking sunsets.
