Perched on the eighth floor of Grand Bay's Building 3, this updated Cayman residence captures sweeping Gulf-to-bay views that stretch across the Harbourside Golf Course, Sarasota Bay, downtown skyline, and the Gulf of Mexico. With more than 2,500 square feet of interior living space and multiple terraces, the residence offers a refined blend of comfort, flexibility, and panoramic scenery in one of Longboat Key's premier gated communities. The open floor plan has been thoughtfully reimagined to enhance everyday living and entertaining. The current configuration features a spacious great room, a casual family room in place of the traditional dining area, and a dining room reallocated to the den/third bedroom"”offering versatility that can easily be adapted to suit a buyer's preferred layout. Walls of glass sliders frame expansive water, city, and golf course views while filling the interior with natural light. The kitchen has been refreshed in 2025 with new countertops, backsplash, sink, faucet, and disposal, complementing solid wood cabinetry, quartz surfaces, and a breakfast bar that connects seamlessly to the surrounding living spaces. This central hub is designed for both functionality and gathering, with clear sightlines to the terraces and beyond. Recent improvements throughout the residence provide both comfort and peace of mind, including two new HVAC systems (2023 and 2024), a renovated primary bath with updated shower (2022), a new powder room (2020), and oversized tile flooring extending throughout the interior and both terraces (2019). Additional enhancements include a stunning built-in living room wall unit with inset lighting, whole-house Sonos sound system, updated guest bath, and electric storm shutters protecting the waterfront openings. The primary suite is privately positioned and offers direct terrace access, a spacious walk-in closet, and a well-appointed en-suite marble bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower. Guest accommodations are arranged in a split layout for privacy, including a generously sized second bedroom and a flexible third bedroom or office (currently being used as the dining room). Grand Bay residents enjoy a resort-style lifestyle within the gated Bay Isles community, featuring two heated swimming pools, Har-Tru tennis courts, a fitness center, clubhouse, and 24-hour guard-gated security. Ongoing community enhancements include newly updated elevators, refreshed clubhouse and pool furnishings, exterior painting (2025), and a new roof on Building 3, scheduled for completion in 2026"”further elevating the long-term value of the community. Ownership also includes deeded access to the private Bay Isles Beach Club, offering Gulf-front parking, pavilions, and direct access to Longboat Key's white-sand beaches.

St. Armands Circle and downtown Sarasota are just minutes away, where boutique shopping, fine dining, theaters, galleries, and cultural venues define the region's renowned coastal lifestyle.
