Property Description

Welcome to your cozy island townhome at the north end of Longboat Key. Perfect as a fulltime residence, seasonal retreat, or investment property, this one-bedroom, two-bath unit fits your needs. This two-story property weathered three hurricanes in 2024, sustaining only minor flooding in the garage during Hurricane Helene and a cracked top-floor window during Hurricane Milton. The HOA will cover and replace the window. On the ground floor, enjoy your private parking garage and storage space. The main living area on the first floor features an open-concept living room and kitchen, ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Step out onto the screened balcony to enjoy the natural beauty of Florida or unwind with your morning coffee. This floor also has a full bathroom and a pull-out sofa for hosting guests. The second floor boasts a spacious master bedroom with a king-sized bed and two walk-in closets, filled with natural light from large windows. This level includes a second bathroom and a sun deck with an outdoor shower, offering peaceful views of a natural reserve. It’s the perfect spot to soak up the sun or enjoy a good book in a hammock. Short-term rentals with a 14-day minimum stay are allowed, adding investment potential. From July 2024 – July 2025, the home already has booked rental income booked totaling $45, 0000. With some cosmetic upgrades, this could be even more! The unit is part of a top-notch tennis club that now includes two pickleball courts. You’ll be close to the pool and the island’s beaches. Pet-friendly and welcoming, the community features a Junior Olympic-sized pool, a Tiki Bar, and a restaurant for a resort-like feel. Nature trails wind through the property, leading to a dock with stunning views of Sarasota Bay— perfect for launching your kayak to explore mangrove tunnels or paddle alongside manatees and dolphins.
