Set along the Grand Canal on the North End of Siesta Key, 557 Venice Lane presents a rare opportunity to own a waterfront residence that balances architectural character, boating access, and an unmistakable sense of place. Distinguished by one of the few remaining historic boathouses on Siesta Key, the property reflects a legacy of island living that is increasingly difficult to find. Designed for those who value both water and proximity to shore, the home offers direct, protected canal access. From the private dock, boaters follow the Grand Canal into Sarasota Bay, with seamless connectivity to the Intracoastal Waterway and Gulf access beyond. The route is calm, navigable, and ideal for daily use—whether launching a boat, paddleboard, kayak, or jet ski. For beach enthusiasts, Siesta Key’s renowned shoreline is only minutes away, allowing owners to move effortlessly between open water and sand. Interiors are thoughtfully composed, with generous scale and abundant natural light. The main living level is anchored by a refined family room with a marble fireplace, opening into a flexible dining and gathering space suitable for both entertaining and daily living. The expansive eat-in kitchen is complemented by an adjoining lounge area, creating a cohesive environment that feels open yet intentional. The residence includes four well-proportioned bedrooms, each featuring custom closet systems. A junior ensuite primary bedroom on the main living level offers convenience and privacy, while the third-level primary suite is positioned as a true retreat, complete with a sitting area, ensuite bath, and French doors leading to rooftop views over the surrounding neighborhood and waterways. The first floor features a bonus room, ideal for a media space, private office, fitness studio, or guest retreat—adding versatility without compromising the home’s flow. Outdoor living is discreetly private, with a screened pool and lanai framed by mature tropical landscaping. The setting encourages quiet relaxation as well as casual waterfront entertaining, with the dock and boathouse extending the living experience directly onto the canal. With immediate access to Sarasota Bay, nearby beaches, dining, and shopping, the location supports an effortless island lifestyle. The absence of deed restrictions or a neighborhood association further enhances flexibility, making the property suitable as a primary residence, second home, or investment opportunity. 557 Venice Lane stands as a refined waterfront offering, defined by heritage, access, and understated elegance—on one of Siesta Key’s most desirable canals.

If you’ve been searching for a fully renovated waterfront beach home on Siesta Key where everything has already been done for you, this is it. This beautifully updated 3-story coastal contemporary offers 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2,822 square feet of light-filled living space on a saltwater canal with quick access to the Intracoastal Waterway.

For the boating enthusiast, the location is ideal: step out your back door, hop on your boat, and reach the Intracoastal in minutes with no marina fees and no hassle. Spend your mornings fishing, your afternoons at a waterfront restaurant, and your evenings cruising at sunset — all from your own private dock. For the seasonal owner, the home’s higher elevation and minimal storm impact history offer peace of mind, while the updated systems reduce maintenance concerns and make lock-and-leave ownership simple.

Full-time residents will love the space and versatility of three levels, ideal for hosting guests or creating private retreats for family, the oversized driveway in addition to the garage, and the balance of privacy and proximity to everything Siesta Key offers. Inside, the home blends modern design with coastal warmth, featuring stainless steel appliances, solid stone countertops, large plank natural-tone wood flooring, oversized grey tile on the lower level, and a soft neutral palette that enhances natural light throughout. Open living spaces flow seamlessly to the outdoors, creating the perfect environment for entertaining or relaxed island living. The updated pool area feels like a private resort, surrounded by refreshed decking and low-maintenance turf, while expansive composite decks on both the front and rear of the home provide multiple spaces to gather, dine, and unwind. Bike to Siesta Key Village, reach the world-famous white sand beach in minutes, or cruise from your own dock whenever the mood strikes. Priced to sell and positioned as one of the best values for a fully updated canal-front home on Siesta Key, this property delivers lifestyle, flexibility, income potential, and long-term upside in one compelling coastal package.
