Baywood Colony is a low-rise condominium community built in 1976 with two stories of predominantly one-bedroom residences configured for comfortable Florida living. The complex showcases mature landscaping, shared garden courtyards, and a network of sidewalks and outdoor grilling areas that promote an active outdoor lifestyle. Interiors typically feature period details such as coffered and tray ceilings, crown molding, solid wood cabinetry, solid-surface counters, walk-in closets, and open living/dining plans; many units have been updated with laminate or luxury vinyl plank flooring, granite or solid counters, stainless appliances, and in-unit washers and dryers. Common elements include assigned storage, private mailboxes, irrigation and exterior lighting, and community laundry facilities; units offer ceiling fans, window treatments, and thermostat control. Parking is surface-level; the association permits seasonal and annual rentals with relatively modest monthly fees. Located West of the Trail in Sarasota near Phillippi Estate Park and minutes from Siesta Key and downtown, the community combines a quiet, established neighborhood feel with easy access to beaches, waterfront paths, shops, and restaurants.
