Perfectly situated along a serene canal with direct access to the bay, this charming waterfront retreat offers both convenience and coastal charm. Located just two blocks from the picturesque Shell Beach and a short drive from the Village, Crescent Beach, and the renowned Siesta Key beaches, you'll have some of the area's best attractions right at your fingertips. Enjoy exploring nearby gems such as Red Rock Park, Lido Beach Pavilion, Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, Ted Sperling Park Nature Trail, and South Lido County Park—all within easy reach for a day of adventure or relaxation.
Upon entering the home, you're welcomed by a bright and airy coastal-themed open floor plan that seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The spacious living room features a comfortable sectional sofa and a smart TV with streaming services for cozy evenings in. Whether you're enjoying a formal dinner or a fun board game night, the adjoining dining area is the perfect gathering space. The modern kitchen is beautifully equipped with stainless steel appliances, a stunning kitchen island with bar seating, and everything a home chef needs to prepare meals with ease.
Step outside onto the expansive deck overlooking the tranquil canal, where unforgettable sunsets and warm breezes await. Dine alfresco at the outdoor dining table or fire up the gas grill for a relaxed summer barbecue. A set of stairs leads down to the canal-front patio, complete with a tropical-style bar—the ideal setting to unwind after a day at the beach. Additional amenities include central air conditioning, beach gear, and six beach chairs for your convenience. Whether you're seeking adventure or serenity, this canal-front oasis offers the best of both worlds.
