Virtually Staged. Imagine the possibilities of Gulf-to-Bay living on Casey Key, where deeded private beach access, deep-water boating and a resort-style bayfront setting create the foundation for an extraordinary coastal retreat. Set on more than half an acre with frontage on Blackburn Bay, 2116 Casey Key Road offers more than 5,500 square feet and an exceptional opportunity to enjoy a substantial island residence around one of Sarasota County’s most coveted waterfront lifestyles. The exterior has been thoughtfully enhanced for enjoying life on the water. Along the bayfront, a multi-level tropical setting unfolds through expansive pavered terraces, covered lounge areas and a gazebo-style dining pavilion with a fully equipped summer kitchen and built-in grilling station. At the center is a heated swimming pool and spa finished in PebbleTec, creating a private resort environment framed by mature tropical surroundings and the waters of Blackburn Bay. A screened second-level bayfront terrace provides another inviting place to relax. For boaters, the property is equally compelling. The extended dock, updated in 2018, includes a lift and provides deep-water access, accommodating both powerboats and sailboats. Deeded private beach access places the Gulf’s turquoise waters and spectacular sunsets just steps from home—creating the increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy both boating and the beach from a single property. Inside is where the next chapter begins. Soaring cathedral ceilings, generous room proportions and walls of oversized impact windows and sliders establish an impressive framework, filling the residence with natural light while capturing sweeping views across Blackburn Bay. The home’s substantial footprint and flexible two-level configuration offer tremendous potential for a thoughtful renovation tailored to today’s coastal lifestyle. Select virtually staged images illustrate just one vision for how the existing spaces could be transformed with a more contemporary aesthetic. The first level provides exceptional flexibility for family and guests, with a family room, game room, two guest bedroom suites, an office with built-ins that can also function as a fourth bedroom, and a convenient kitchenette. This arrangement lends itself beautifully to extended family, visiting guests or the creation of private living quarters within the home. Upstairs, the main living spaces take full advantage of the elevated bayfront setting. The living and dining rooms are joined by a kitchen with granite countertops, center island, informal dining area and stainless steel appliances, along with a wet bar and wine cooler. The primary suite is also located on this level, allowing the principal living spaces to share the home’s expansive water views. A three-stop elevator and interior staircase connect the levels. Considerable improvements include a 2022 metal roof, multiple A/C replacements from 2017–2024, replacement of non-impact windows with Andersen impact windows, updated dock and lift pilings, new ductwork, electrical upgrades and re-piping. Located on the quieter southern end of Casey Key, the property feels wonderfully removed while remaining convenient to Nokomis, Venice and Sarasota. Nearby destinations include Nokomis Beach, the restaurants and boutiques of Venice Island, area marinas and the Legacy Trail, while Downtown Sarasota’s dining, performing arts, cultural attractions and waterfront are within comfortable reach.

A rare Gulf-to-Bay opportunity on Casey Key, where nearly an acre of land stretches from the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico to the protected waters of the bay. With just over 100 feet of water frontage on both the Gulf and bay sides (and more than 400-feet of depth), this exceptional property presents an opportunity to create a custom waterfront retreat tailored entirely to your vision. Set along one of Sarasota’s most coveted barrier islands, the expansive homesite offers the extraordinary combination of a private Gulf beach, spectacular sunset views and direct boating access—all from one property.

Approximately 104 feet of Gulf frontage and a newer seawall, completed in 2004, establish an impressive setting for a future coastal residence designed around the water, sunsets and relaxed Casey Key lifestyle. Mature tropical landscaping and the parcel’s generous proportions create a wonderful sense of privacy rarely found along the coast. Across the property, approximately 104 feet of bay frontage opens another dimension of waterfront living. The dock and boat lift, both added in 2022, provide convenient access to the Intracoastal Waterway and the exceptional boating, fishing and cruising opportunities of Southwest Florida. Spend the morning on the boat, return home by water and finish the day watching the sun disappear into the Gulf from your own backyard. The nearly one-acre parcel provides remarkable flexibility for designing a custom residence that takes full advantage of its Gulf-to-Bay orientation, with the potential to capture water views in both directions. Imagine expansive indoor-outdoor living spaces, elevated terraces, a resort-style pool environment and private gathering areas framed by tropical landscaping—all designed specifically around this extraordinary coastal setting. Casey Key remains one of the Gulf Coast’s most distinctive residential enclaves, prized for its natural beauty, privacy and laid-back character.

Downtown Sarasota’s cultural attractions, dining and shopping are also within comfortable reach, while the Intracoastal and Gulf of Mexico are quite literally at your doorstep. 2417 Casey Key Road is more than a waterfront homesite—it is an opportunity to create a legacy property on one of Southwest Florida’s most treasured barrier islands, with the Gulf at one door and the bay at the other.
