Waterfront 3BR/2BA Pool Home on Terra Ceia Bay with Dock & Stunning Sunsets

Luxury Waterfront Pool Home on Terra Ceia Bay
Welcome to your private Florida retreat, perfectly positioned on the sparkling waters of Terra Ceia Bay. This fully furnished 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers everything you need for a relaxing seasonal escape. With a heated pool, expansive dock, paddleboard, fire pit, and sweeping water views, this property captures the true essence of coastal living.
Located in Palmetto, Florida, Terra Ceia Bay is a hidden gem on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Nestled between St. Petersburg and Sarasota, this tranquil bay community offers direct access to open waters, incredible sunsets, and abundant opportunities for fishing, boating, and wildlife watching. From the comfort of your backyard, you can watch dolphins glide across the bay, pelicans diving for their dinner, and breathtaking skies as the sun dips below the horizon.
Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee on the pool deck, floating in the heated pool, or gathering with loved ones around the fire pit, every moment here feels like a postcard come to life.
The outdoor areas of this home were designed for both relaxation and entertainment. Step outside to your new heated pool, perfect for year-round enjoyment. Surrounded by a completely pavered backyard, the pool deck provides plenty of room for sunbathing, dining al fresco, or simply lounging with a good book.
Just beyond the pool lies the large private dock, a true highlight of the property. Cast a line for some of Florida’s most popular fish species, launch the included paddleboard for a calm morning on the water, or simply sit at the edge and take in the view. A fish cleaning station makes it easy to prepare your catch of the day for the grill.
In the evenings, gather around the fire pit set with your group. Share stories and enjoy the cool bay breezes as the sky transforms into hues of orange, pink, and purple. Outdoor games like cornhole are also available for a fun family competition.
Inside, the home features a bright, open floor plan with plenty of natural light and comfortable furnishings.
