Public showings are now available for the first time on 5/2/2026. After months of restricted access due to a tenant, this residence is finally available for public showings. Restricted access resulted in only a handful of private showings, giving today’s buyers a rare chance to discover a home that’s been under the radar. SELLER SAYS “SELL!” Unbeatable opportunity at $649,900 for a full Bayfront Waterview, corner end-unit on Longboat Key. Exceptionally priced below market value—this residence represents the lowest-priced Bayfront end unit in the highly desirable community of Windward Bay, in over 5 years. A compelling price point, providing rare access for those seeking to own a premium waterfront residence at an extraordinary price. Encompassing 1,523 square feet, this stylishly furnished, two-bedroom, two-bath residence is thoughtfully designed to showcase uninterrupted panoramic Bay views from every room. Natural light fills the open living and dining areas, where expansive windows frame ever-changing Bay views from sunrise through the evening’s sunset. The remodeled 2024 kitchen opens seamlessly to the main living area and features recently completed upper cabinetry and a sophisticated yet functional layout ideal for both relaxed daily living and entertaining. Recently acquired “chic” French doors in both bedrooms open to the Florida Room, a signature feature for Longboat Key residences, offering additional living space to enjoy morning light and serene Bay vistas. The spacious primary suite includes a private en-suite bath and a generous walk-in closet, providing comfort, supporting everyday living, and abundant storage. “Pet Friendly” Windward Bay is a well-established waterfront community known for its mature landscaping, waterfront setting, resort-style amenities, a strong proactive association with solid reserves, and an enduring reputation as one of Longboat Key’s most welcoming communities. (Attributes that continue to attract owners who value lifestyle as much as long-term stability.) The Milestone Inspection and Capital Reserve Study are complete. Windward Bay’s Monthly Condo Fees for 2025 were actually reduced and for 2026 only increased slightly by $13 a month, demonstrating a financially healthy Condo Association. Offered furnished and move-in ready, this corner end-unit provides flexibility as a full-time residence, seasonal retreat, or investment opportunity.
