Exquisite Bayfront Living with Unparalleled Panoramic Views
Immerse yourself in breathtaking day-to-night bay views from every room in this impeccably maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom corner end-unit condo (1, 523 SF). Boasting the largest floor plan in the community, this elevated 2nd-floor retreat, effortlessly combines elegance, comfort, and the beauty of its natural surroundings —accessible by elevator.

A true showstopper, the 22-foot-long, full-height glass-enclosed lanai creates a seamless connection to the stunning bay, offering panoramic waterfront views that transform from tranquil sunrises to dazzling moonlit reflections or just a short walk across the street to put your feet in the sand.

Step inside to discover designer vinyl wood flooring throughout (no carpet!), providing effortless maintenance and a sleek, modern aesthetic. The stunning new kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring quartz waterfall countertops, new stainless steel Bosch appliances, a spacious breakfast island, refined cabinetry, and a stylish new glass backsplash.

The serene bay views extend into the luxurious primary suite, where you’ll enjoy direct lanai access, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-like ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, double vanity, and quartz countertops. The guest bedroom, also showcasing breathtaking bay views and lanai access, includes a spacious closet and sits adjacent to a beautifully updated guest bath—perfect for hosting visitors or creating a sophisticated home office.

Throughout the condo, elegant crown molding, three pairs of double glass doors, motorized Hunter Douglas sun shades, and a state-of-the-art alarm system add to the refined ambiance.

Designed for modern convenience, this home offers hurricane-impact windows, a 2018 HVAC system, and a 2023 water heater. Additional perks include in-unit laundry, a private storage room, and an assigned under-building parking space.

Unrivaled Amenities in Windward Bay
Nestled in the coveted bayfront community of Windward Bay, this home offers a premier Gulf and Bay lifestyle. Residents also enjoy an array of resort-style amenities.
