Bayway Isles is a gated, deed-restricted neighborhood in St. Petersburg consisting of two islands in the southwestern part of the city. The islands are home to almost 200 families and a variety of single family homes, condos and townhomes. The community extends southward from the Pinellas Bayway causeway into the waters of southern Boca Ciega Bay. Unlike other nearby island communities, Bayway Isles is located within the City of St. Petersburg affording its residents all the amenities of a growing and prosperous city including excellent fire and police protection, libraries and a wide range of cultural and sports events.
This upscale community began in the early 1960s. During 1986, new home construction began on the final phase of development on the island of Bayway II. Architectural design throughout the community is appealing and styles range from modern to Spanish and European. Beautiful lush landscaping, combined with architecturally designed homes sets Bayway Isles apart as a truly unique island community. The Bayway Isles community also benefits from the use of reclaimed water for lawn and gardening purposes.
The residents of Bayway Isles enjoy a quiet island lifestyle and agree that their community has been a well-kept secret for many years. The neighborhood is located adjacent to the famous St. Pete Beach and close to public schools, Eckerd College, grocery and boutique shops, hospitals, banks and restaurants. The neighborhood has an added convenience with a local country store featuring every-day needs as well as sandwiches, gourmet meats, and food and wine. This quick stop as you come to the island can provide you with all of the gourmet dinner essentials.
Deed restrictions and architectural guidelines enhance property values in Bayway Isles. For instance, no signs are permitted (this includes For Sale real estate signs) thus maintaining the neat appearance of the island for guests and residents alike. One of the most rewarding and appreciated features is the 24-hour entry protection, allowing Bayway residents the freedom to walk, bike or roller blade at their leisure at any hour and to especially enjoy evening walks outside. Other nearby amenities include golf courses, yacht clubs, fabulous fishing, Ft. DeSoto Park and the white sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico.
