About this home
Price improvement! Here is a buyer's opportunity to create your vision and enjoy a unique coastal lifestyle in the sought-after historic Longbeach Village on Longboat Key's north end. The concrete block home has an open living area, two expanded bedrooms, two baths with a lanai and a one-car garage. The home sits on spacious corner lot with mature shade trees in this great neighborhood with no HOA. The roof was replaced in 2019. Bedrooms were enlarged and enhanced to include a storm-rated slider and an expanded window added for natural light. The kitchen was redesigned with designer upper cabinetry, recessed cabinet lighting, quartz countertops, a coordinating backsplash and a frosted glass bar. The screened patio was reconstructed with a knee wall, seamlessly integrating the space into the main living area. The plumbing system had been fully updated, with cast-iron outflow pipes lined and water lines replaced. The fenced backyard features a brick paver patio and mature tropical landscaping, creating a private oasis. The driveway has been upgraded with eye-catching brick pavers. The property experienced water damage from Helene, but offers opportunities for remediating and renovating, elevating the existing structure, adding a pool, or building a custom coastal retreat on its spacious corner lot. The block home's doorways were retrofitted with a flood gate system for added protection from future storms. Easily access the breathtaking turquoise waters and white sandy beaches of the Gulf at the nearby path over the dunes, where you can enjoy days on the beach or take in the stunning Florida sunsets. Just blocks away take advantage of the the Village's waterfront with a boat ramp, two bayfront docks and multiple access points which provide direct entry to Sarasota Bay, ideal for boating, fishing, kayaking and paddleboarding. Dine at renowned neighborhood waterfront restaurants like Mar Vista and The Shore, with additional dining, boutique shops and fitness centers nearby in Whitney Plaza along the scenic bayou. Whether you are looking for a serene retreat, miles of biking trails, a boating paradise or an active island lifestyle, this property is ready to be customized to your vision. Schedule your showing today and experience the charm of Longbeach Village.
