When you turn onto Bay Oaks Circle, the hands of time disappear. This peaceful tree lined street sets the stage for a remarkable Artist Retreat style home, perfectly situated on over 1/4 acre of tropical landscaping lusciousness on the highly desirable Manasota Key. The outdoor living space is reminiscent of a “secret garden” with shade trees, exotic plants, and a patio area where you will spend many hours enjoying countless varieties of plants, trees, birds and butterflies in the privacy of your fenced yard. As you enter this studio inspired oasis, the never-ending custom upgrades and artistic elements are immediately apparent. The gleaming tile and bamboo laminate flooring guide you through your custom retreat. Designer lighting, abundant natural light, and attractive wall colors create a welcoming atmosphere. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s delight, with beautiful granite countertops and backsplash, abundant upgraded cabinets, and newer stainless appliances. The Florida Room is the perfect place to have breakfast as you plan your day. Your deeded access to both the Beach and Bay gives you the opportunity to enjoy white sand and spectacular sunsets, or you can jump on your boat for a day of fishing in the Gulf of Mexico! Come home and rinse off in your outside shower before you head to a nearby local favorite restaurant for dinner and live entertainment. This a rare opportunity to live the Manasota Key lifestyle without a waterfront price tag! Feel the magic for yourself, call today!
