Have you ever dreamt of owning a house on a private island? Well, "Blue Island" is where your dream becomes REALITY!! This is a very unique opportunity to purchase one of the best waterfront properties in the area. This home sets on the end of peninsula with water on 3 sides. If the water is what you crave then this property will make you feel connected to it with water views from every room. The home is part of the Whitfield Estates neighborhood which provides some deed restrictions, and a Culinary membership to the Donald Ross designed historic Sara Bay Country club and golf. The location provides easy access to Downtown Sarasota, Downtown Bradenton and all of our world famous beaches, deep water boating with 2 full service marinas, a gas dock, and a Tiki bar all within a 1/4 mile. Boaters will love the location with quick easy access the the Bay and Gulf of Mexico. The home has been completely remodeled and offers 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, plus a 1 bedroom and 1 bath guest house, open kitchen with incredible water and sunset views, large laundry room, 3 car carport, garage/ workshop with sliding barn doors to access your covered boat house, 450 foot of new seawall, new 10, 000 lb direct drive boat lift, 20' x 40' lap pool with huge paver deck, large paver driveway for multiple vehicles, fishing/ lounging dock, almost half an acre of land, all while being only minutes to Sarasota Airport. This property was originally built for the developer of the neighborhood, as it is the absolute best lot. The property was held in the same family for generations until recently, when this property was restored to better than new, with all new Seawall, resurfaced pool, new HVAC, New Metal roof, new hurricane sliding patio doors, new motorized patio roof, new 10, 000lb boat lift, new septic system, new whole house water purifier, the list goes on and on.
