Siesta Key offers a myriad of neighborhoods that offer the many architectural styles that define island living. Siesta Key was first settled in 1846. Since then this paradise has become one of the most popular destinations for tourists and vacation home owners in Florida. One of the premier locations to own a home on Siesta Key is Bay Island.
As soon as you cross the bridge from the mainland on Siesta Drive you will be on Bay Island. Bay Island features some of the finest homes located on the Sarasota Bay-front of Siesta Key. Equally as spectacular as the home, the views of downtown Sarasota, Ringling Causeway, Bird Key, Lido Key and Harbor Acres are positively amazing. The homes on Norsota way can easily top the $15 million dollar mark and they offer deep water access to Sarasota Bay for those who love sailing or prefer a large watercraft for cruising on the bay. This location is also on big pass which provides direct gulf access for those who enjoy bending a rod catching some of the many species of fish that can be caught in these waters.
The streets on this island that forms the north east point of Siesta Key features 169 homes that begin in the high $300s. When doing a property search for Bay Island real estate opportunities can be found on Flamingo Avenue, Hamilton Avenue, Hiegel Avenue, Anglin Drive, Seagrape Drive and Freeling Drive.
Though Bay Island is totally separated from Siesta Key buy canals it is still classed as part of Siesta. The famous Siesta Key Beach is located five minutes further south from Bay Island. The benefit of living in this community is its close proximity to downtown Sarasota and the amenities the city has to offer. You are also much closer to the supermarket and Westfield Shopping Center which is a big plus during the winter season.
