Property Description

Framed by sweeping Gulf sunset views and the manicured grounds of the Water Club, this expansive third-floor residence in the South Building offers more than 3,000 square feet of refined coastal living. Designed with both privacy and comfort in mind, the residence pairs a thoughtfully updated interior with immediate access to one of Longboat Key’s most sought-after resort-style communities. The true three-bedroom layout was enhanced in 2022 with the enclosure of the den and addition of a closet, creating a more functional and private floor plan. Hardwood flooring flows throughout the main living areas, while all three bathrooms were recently updated in 2024, adding a fresh, modern feel. The open living and dining areas are designed to capture Gulf and sunset views, complemented by built-ins and a wet bar that enhance both everyday living and entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open from the great room, kitchen, and primary suite to two Gulf-facing terraces, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. The eat-in kitchen is both functional and inviting, featuring custom cabinetry, Miele stainless steel appliances, a center island, and a dining nook surrounded by glass to maximize water views. The primary suite offers a private retreat with its own sitting area, an oversized walk-in closet, and dual en-suite bathrooms designed for comfort and convenience. Two guest bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged in a split plan, including one en-suite, ensuring privacy for family and visitors. Additional features include covered parking, a private storage unit, and a beverage locker (assigned). The Water Club is known for its full service, resort-style living, offering a Junior Olympic-size pool, children’s pool, three spas, four Har-Tru tennis courts, and a Mediterranean-inspired clubhouse with fitness center, steam and sauna, library, social spaces, and everyday on-site concierge services. A 24-hour staffed gate provides both privacy and security, while direct access to the Gulf’s sandy beaches completes the experience. Located on the south end of Longboat Key, this residence is just minutes from the Longboat Key Club, St. Armands Circle, and downtown Sarasota’s cultural venues, including The Ringling Museum, Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, Selby Gardens, and waterfront parks—offering a lifestyle that blends coastal beauty with everyday convenience.
