1021 BAY ESPLANADE CLEARWATER BEACH FL 33767

Overview of 1021 Bay Esplanade

Near the tip of an island, among an enclave of luxury homes, this bayfront estate offers the rare combination of enduring architectural beauty and the easy rhythm of coastal living. Just a short walk brings you to deeded access to the white sands and gentle surf of the gulf, while at home, the dock extends into calm waters where dolphins play and sunsets shimmer across the bay. Mornings begin with coffee on the dock, the sound of water lapping below and the flash of silver as fish break the surface. In the afternoon, a walk along the beach gives way to golden skies and the sun’s slow descent beyond the gulf. Evenings invite a stroll to dinner at the nearby carlouel beach and yacht club, where island living feels both intimate and elevated. Built in an era when grace, character, and quality were expected, this home has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its timeless soul while embracing the comfort of modern life. The result is a beautiful blend of casual sophistication and classic refinement—a home that feels equally suited for quiet reflection or grand entertaining. Gracious square footage offers space and privacy for family and guests alike. Entry is through a courtyard framed in limestone, leading into a grand living room with gleaming wood floors and expansive palladian windows that showcase breathtaking water views. It’s a room designed not just for living, but for gathering—an invitation to celebrate every moment with style and ease. The dining room shares the same gracious proportions, filled with light and views that make even everyday meals feel like an occasion. Every great home has a kitchen that serves as its heart, and this one does not disappoint. A chef’s showplace, it looks as if it were designed for a magazine spread, yet it’s warm and welcoming. The adjoining spaces encourage laughter and conversation, with a large bar for watching the chef at work, a comfortable breakfast nook, and a cozy gathering room anchored by a fireplace. The primary suite is located on the ground floor, where mornings begin with serene bayfront views and soft light filtering through palms. The ground floor also includes a private office and small library, creating quiet nooks for work or reflection—each with a connection to the water and the rhythm of island life. Upstairs, flexibility meets charm. Whether for family or guests, the space offers three generous bedrooms and a second family room with stunning water views—a perfect place for games, movies, or simply watching the bay change colors with the sky. Thoughtful details abound, from abundant storage to inviting alcoves that make every corner feel special.
