140 N CASEY KEY ROAD Now offered under $2M on the coveted Casey Key barrier island, this elevated waterfront retreat captures sweeping open-bay views the moment you walk through the door. Positioned along the Intracoastal Waterway, the home offers a front-row seat to boating activity, kayaking, coastal birds, and even dolphins gliding across the water - while remaining just far enough away to enjoy peaceful privacy. The open floor plan fills with natural light and keeps the water in view from the main living areas and primary suite, while upstairs bedroom provides an even higher vantage point across the bay. Step outside to an expansive composite deck designed for entertaining, with multiple seating areas and panoramic water views that make every gathering feel like a vacation. The resort-style Aqua-Tech infinity edge heated pool with therapy jet ledge invites relaxation while watching boats cruise by. The chef's kitchen features sleek cabinetry, premium stainless steel appliances, a dramatic stone island, glass tile backsplash, and a stylish dry bar with leaded glass barn door. Set on a generous .49-acre lot with lush tropical landscaping, fresh exterior lighting, brand-new shell driveway, and beautifully re-stained cedar siding (2025), the home blends island charm with modern updates. All three bedrooms offer private ensuite baths, while the loft provides flexible space for an office, den, or creative retreat overlooking the main living area. Dock replacement is underway with the seller escrowing her required contribution at closing, providing peace of mind and future enjoyment of a newly replaced dock. A shared deeded boat slip offers quick access to the Intracoastal for sunset cruises, fishing trips, or waterfront dining. Enjoy island living just minutes from the Deep Lagoon Restaurant, Mariner Jack Marina, boat rentals, fishing spots, and Sarasota's vibrant dining, arts, and culture. This is Casey Key-where open water views, wildlife, and coastal lifestyle come together in one unforgettable setting.
