Now you too can live the vacation lifestyle you always dreamed of. The 80’ deep water dock with lift, power & water will accommodate an assortment of water toys. The waterway is only minutes to the open bay and ICW with no bridges and is also perfect for kayaking and paddle boarding while taking in all the wildlife that frequents it. Surrounded by lush landscaping with a southwestern exposure the home has privacy and still bright and sunny all day. A strip of mangroves along the waterway keeps the home protected and is in the process of being trimmed to open full water views of Cranes Bayou and Buttonwood Harbor. With high ceilings throughout, the home feels spacious in size with an open living room, formal dining room, large kitchen and an adjacent den. The 3 bedrooms each have a private bath and are appointed with plenty of closet space. The master suite on the 2nd level features a spacious bath and 2 large closets. French glass doors stretch across the back of the home and opens on to a large caged deck overlooking a 50’ heated pool with spa and outdoor entertaining area. It offers the perfect atmosphere for watching the amazing sunsets at the end of the day. Various memberships are available to the Longboat Key Club with 45 holes of golf, Har-Tru lighted tennis courts, spa, state of the art fitness center and 4 restaurants. Included in your home ownership is a membership to the exclusive Bay Isles Beach Club located direct on the azure waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Overall, you could not ask for a more perfect location close to the world-famous St Armands Circle known for its shopping and dining and then across the bridge to the city of Sarasota and all its cultural amenities. Just outside the resort gates you will find a grocery, pharmacy, banks, post office, and town hall.
