About This Home
Calling all boaters, investors, paradise seekers and people who are looking for incredible value. Welcome to this newly rebuilt home with soft neutral colors and tastefully selected appointments. There is great use of space with an open floor plan, office nook, den/flex room and two spacious bedrooms. This waterfront boating community with deeded beach access, and a lovely community pool overlooking a 40-slip deepwater marina, makes every day feel like a vacation. Explore the endless waterways surrounding Longboat Key, Sarasota Bay and beautiful Gulf waters, as you launch your vessel from your own boat slip, at extremely reasonable rentals fees of $200, $250 or $300 per year. There is a one-time $750 non-refundable fee and slips are available. There is instant access to the Intracoastal Waterway and just minutes to the Gulf waters not only for boating, kayaking, fishing, anchoring and swimming at gorgeous sandbars, but exploring many seaside restaurants and only 30 minutes to downtown Sarasota for additional water excitement and entertainment. Or just experience the soft sandy beaches of Longboat as you access through the deeded beach access for magnificent sunsets, lounging and enjoying this soft, easy lifestyle. Pet-friendly, maintenance-free and an active 55-plus community are added benefits for your enjoyment. Only a short drive to the fantastic shops, restaurants and cultural events Sarasota and St. Armands Circle have to offer. This community is in the build-back stage due to damage from the hurricane in 2024. All 212 units in Spanish Main Yacht Club are under FEMA regulations, guidelines and stringent adherence to rebuild specifications. This unit will be finished end of November with all new kitchen, baths, appliances, interior/exterior doors plus more. New owners will receive any balance of insurance funds that are allotted to this villa. Call for details. Photos reflect the build-back stage after hurricane damage. All FEMA regulations completed including inspections. Ready to enjoy your piece of paradise.
