7425 Bay Island Dr S

Bay Island is a low-rise, waterfront condominium complex built in 1972 and arranged in three-story buildings serving a 55+ community. Unit mixes are primarily one- and two-bedroom layouts with conventional features such as open living/dining plans, eat-in kitchens, solid-surface and stone counters, solid wood cabinets, split-bedroom plans, walk-in closets and window treatments. Many homes include screened or covered patios or balconies with water views; hurricane shutters, ceiling fans and thermostats are common. Grounds emphasize resort-style shared spaces: multiple heated pools and spas, separate men’s and women’s fitness rooms with saunas, tennis courts, shuffleboard, outdoor grills, a marina with boat slips, a 1.25–1.5 mile seawall walking path, courtyards and a dog run. A two-story clubhouse contains social rooms, billiards, a library and an upstairs function hall with kitchen for private events; laundry facilities and storage units are available on-site. The gated community offers 24-hour security, covered carport parking and elevators in select buildings. HOA services typically cover exterior maintenance, landscaping, basic cable and internet, water/sewer/trash and common-area flood insurance. Its location in South Pasadena places the complex minutes from St. Pete Beach, restaurants, shopping and downtown St. Petersburg, supporting a relaxed waterfront lifestyle with easy access to regional airports.
