About this Property
Experience the best of Florida’s Gulf Coast in this remodeled and elevated single-family home, ideally located on a quiet street that ends at Sarasota Bay and includes deeded beach access. Surrounded by the tropical beauty of Joan M. Durante Park’s nature preserve, this residence blends modern coastal design with the serenity of island living. Inside, an open-concept floor plan welcomes abundant natural light throughout. The gourmet kitchen features soft-close white shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, an expansive island, breakfast bar, and oversized pantry, ideal for entertaining or casual gatherings after a day at the beach. Designed for privacy, the primary suite is thoughtfully separated from the guest bedrooms and offers an ensuite bathroom with a luxurious tiled shower and a spacious walk-in closet. The second bedroom opens directly onto a southeast-facing, sun-filled porch, perfect for enjoying morning light, while the versatile third bedroom can serve as a guest room, home office, or creative studio. Both bathrooms have been fully renovated with elegant tilework and modern finishes. Enjoy peace of mind with elevated construction and comprehensive updates, including a new roof, HVAC system, plumbing, electrical, flooring, garage doors, and more (2022–2024). The oversized two-car garage provides ample space for a home gym, kayaks, or paddleboards. Step outside to the back deck overlooking the 32-acre nature preserve and take in the sights and sounds of island wildlife. The expansive 18,000-square-foot double lot offers endless possibilities for expansion—add a private pool or explore potential subdivision opportunities (subject to permitting). With no HOA and easy access to Longboat Key’s pristine white-sand beaches and the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Mexico, this home is ideal as a primary residence, seasonal retreat, or investment property. Savor the convenience of nearby favorites like Euphemia Haye, grab a gourmet sandwich from Harry’s Deli & Bakery before heading to the beach, or cool off with a cone from Tyler’s Gourmet Ice Cream. All this, plus proximity to shopping, Longboat Key Club golf courses, and local marinas, makes this home the perfect blend of luxury, natural beauty, and coastal adventure. Embrace the coveted Longboat Key lifestyle—where every sunrise brings new possibilities.
