1100 Pinellas Bayway S

A low-rise waterfront condominium complex built in 1983, Sterling on the Gulf comprises four stories of single-level three-bedroom residences arranged around landscaped grounds and marina facilities. The architecture reads as tropical-contemporary with broad balconies, large sliding and French doors, and impact-rated window treatments added to many units. Interiors tend to favor open, high-ceiling plans — cathedral and vaulted ceilings, high baseboards and crown molding — with features such as wet/dry bars, eat-in kitchens, skylights, solid wood cabinetry and stone or solid-surface counters. Units commonly offer primary suites on the main living level, split-bedroom layouts, generous walk-in closets and bonus rooms off attached one-car garages that double as workshops or storage. Shared amenities are focused on coastal recreation and social life: an expansive pool and spa area, clubhouse and multiple gazebo and screened-cabana spaces, a fishing pier and extensive docks with deeded or assigned deep-water boat slips and lifts. The property is secured by keyed/elevator entry and provides covered parking, individual garages and supplemental storage. Exterior provisions include hurricane shutters, irrigation and outdoor kitchen/grill spaces. Located on Tierra Verde island, the building sits steps from a small downtown of restaurants and services, minutes from Fort De Soto and other award-winning Gulf beaches, and offers immediate boating access to Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. The HOA permits pets with certain size limits and manages common-area maintenance and ongoing dock and exterior renovations.
