Property Description

DEEDED BEACH ACCESS AND DEEP WATER CANAL at this beautifully renovated mid-key beach house on the barrier island of Longboat Key.  You can enjoy a 3-minute walk to the beach using your private beach access or step outside and enjoy the canal on your trex dock. The uncrowded beach with natural surroundings, fine sand beaches, warm breezes, and clear turquoise waters is truly a special place.

Entering the home, you are greeted by terrazzo floors, stunning 2 story foyer and a water view of the canal.   All new wood kitchen cabinets including island and coffee bar with quartz countertops making this a great area to entertain guests.  All 3 bathrooms have been completely renovated and include custom tile showers. Large master bedroom with en-suite bathroom. An enclosed lanai overlooking the canal is a perfect spot for an office or tropical retreat. Large living room with wood burning fireplace and new tile flooring provides a relaxing space. New kitchen and bath fixtures throughout.  Ceiling fans in each room.

Being in the middle of LBK provides easy access to Anna Maria Island and Bradenton to the north, St. Armands and Sarasota to the south. SRQ airport is less than 45 minutes.

Completely restored home by licensed general contractor and professionally mitigated after hurricane Helene flood damage. The house shares a driveway, deeded beach and canal access with 5924 Gulf of Mexico Drive making it a perfect guest house or family compound when purchased together (or use one as a rental for an ongoing revenue stream}. The property is being sold as-is.
