- Pool
- Waterfront
A rare, irreplaceable Gulf-to-Bay legacy compound situated on the private, gated north end of North Manasota Key: 756 North Manasota Key Road commands an extraordinary coastal position spanning from 155 feet of private Gulf of Mexico beach frontage to 155 feet of protected deep-water dockage on Lemon Bay. Cherished by the same family for nearly three decades, this compound-sized parcel captures both glowing bay sunrises and vibrant Gulf sunsets across nearly 300 feet of pristine depth. Anchored by an exceptional 12.9-foot site elevation and comprehensive capital infrastructure—including a 2021 metal roof, three updated HVAC units, modern PVC plumbing, a 2016 septic system, a 2025 pool cage, and selected impact-rated openings within a fully fenced perimeter—this estate delivers rare barrier island peace of mind. Offering 4,033 square feet of living area, the property is thoughtfully configured for multi-generational living or refined host-guest separation. The main residence features 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, soaring cathedral ceilings with rich cypress accents, custom millwork, integrated surround sound, and Andersen windows framing sweeping water views. At its center, the chef’s kitchen is appointed with solid wood cabinetry, dual pantries, a Thermador cooktop, and GE Monogram appliances that look directly out over Lemon Bay. Providing ultimate privacy, a self-contained 2-bedroom guest apartment with its own dedicated living room is set above the garage. Outdoor living is engineered for world-class recreation. Step from the main living area to the heated screened pool and an expansive 18x48 open lanai just strides from the sand, or walk to the protected bay side to your private 89-foot deep-water dock—newly re-decked in 2025 and equipped with power, water, and a cleaning station. Boating is effortless with sheltered mooring on Lemon Bay and bridge-free navigation through Stump Pass straight into the Gulf, as well as easy cruising to local waterfront dining. Whether enjoyed immediately as an authentic coastal sanctuary or reimagined into an architectural showpiece, opportunities pairing this caliber of dual frontage, high elevation, and seclusion are virtually impossible to replicate.
