3040 Grand Bay Blvd

Grand Bay is a gated, mid-rise condominium community on Longboat Key completed in 1996 and organized as multiple 10-story buildings offering primarily two- and three-bedroom residences. Architecturally the development favors low-profile coastal massing with large expanses of glass and wraparound terraces that maximize water, golf course, and city views. Interiors commonly feature high or vaulted ceilings, formal living and dining layouts, built-ins, marble or hardwood floors, tray and coffered ceilings, and luxury touches such as stone counters, solid wood cabinetry, wet bars, and spa-style primary baths. Most homes include elevator access to a private foyer, generous walk-in closets and under-building parking with storage lockers. Communal amenities are resort-oriented: a staffed gate complex with 24-hour security and on-site management, a clubhouse with game and social rooms, a fitness center, two heated pools and spas, Har-Tru tennis courts, sauna, outdoor grilling and picnic areas, irrigation and landscaped grounds, and deeded access to the private Bay Isles Beach Club. Practical coastal features include hurricane shutters, outdoor showers, covered parking, and building storage; the community is pet friendly (board approval required) and situated within easy reach of marinas, golf facilities, and downtown Sarasota services and dining.
