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… Read More 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. Read Less
