About This Home
Experience the ultimate in Longboat Key living with this beautifully remodeled and elevated single-family home that captures the essence of luxury coastal living on Florida's most prestigious barrier island. This move-in-ready residence offers deeded beach access, direct views, and access to the surrounding Joan M. Durante Park, and a quiet street that dead-ends to Sarasota Bay, making it the perfect retreat for those seeking both privacy and connection to nature. Inside, you'll find a stunning open-concept layout filled with natural light, featuring a gourmet kitchen with soft-close white shaker cabinets, expansive quartz countertops, a generous island with breakfast bar, and an extra-large built-in pantry—ideal for entertaining or relaxing after a day at the beach. The spacious primary suite is thoughtfully separated from the other bedrooms for maximum tranquility and offers a renovated ensuite bathroom with a luxurious tile shower and a large walk-in closet. The second bedroom opens directly onto a southeast-facing front porch, perfect for enjoying morning sunrises, while the versatile third bedroom easily adapts as a guest room, home office, or creative studio. Both bathrooms have been fully renovated with elegant tile showers and modern finishes. This elevated home provides enhanced security and peace of mind, while the oversized two-car garage offers ample storage, space for a home gym, and plenty of room for bikes, kayaks, or paddleboards. Step outside to savor your coffee on the private porch or unwind on the back deck as you watch birds and wildlife in the lush 32-acre nature preserve. The expansive, 18,000 square foot, double lot provides endless possibilities for expansion, adding a private pool, or exploring subdivision opportunities (subject to permitting). Recent upgrades ensure a worry-free lifestyle, including a new roof, water heater, plumbing, AC, floors, bathrooms, kitchen, exterior paint, soffits, gutters, garage doors, and wiring—all completed between 2022 and 2024. 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, vacation getaway, or investment property. Enjoy the convenience of nearby dining at Lo’ Key Island Grille, pick up a gourmet sandwich from Harry’s Deli & Bakery on your way to the beach, or cool off with a cone from Tyler’s Gourmet Ice Cream—all just minutes from shopping, Longboat Key Club golf courses, and local marinas. Embrace the coveted Longboat Key lifestyle, where every sunrise brings new possibilities and where the blend of luxury, natural beauty, and coastal adventure creates a true paradise. Discover your dream home at 691 Gulf Bay Road and make every day feel like a vacation on Florida's most prestigious barrier island.
