About this property

Best location. End of March and April 2024 now available!

***March and April 2024 available****
Private home located in the prime desirable quiet neighborhood of Country Club Shores. (sought after southern end with bonus of avoiding traffic) This 3 bedroom / 3 bath home is on a deep water canal, fourth in from the Sarasota Bay. Wake up to water views of Sarasota Bay in this newly refurnished and painted home in south Longboat Key. Printer, 55 inch monitor, sit/stand desk and large spaces to work from home!!!

Take a short walk to the deeded powdery white sandy beaches and calm turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Stay for the incredible beach sunsets which are breathtaking and very private.

Four new bikes, games, kayaks and family fun located on site at property. Deep water canal with excellent water views. See the dolphins in our back yard! Fantastic private pool to relax in at the end of the day.

This home has been recently furnished. Each room has been redecorated with an industrial coastal decor. Beautiful caged pool that overlooks the canal where you can sit and have your morning breakfast at the bistro table.

Our home is only three miles from the famous St. Armand’s Circle and Lido Beach where you can indulge in incredible restaurants and shopping. Publix supermarket and CVS shopping center are under two miles away. The Sarasota airport is a quick 15 minute drive.

Perfect home for our family
This 3 BR 3 BA home was perfect for our month long escape. Little touches made it convenient to work from paradise (desk, laser printer/scanner, and good internet which can be hit or miss on other vacation homes!). The owners checked on us often to be sure we had everything we needed. The beach access is amazingly quiet! Even on weekends there were no crowds. Our kids want to stay the entire summer next time!

What fun!
A fine time was had by all in and about Mairead and Mike's comfortable, roomy and attractive vacation house! We enjoyed biking, kayaking, fishing, swimming and just relaxing in the dock chairs, watching the sun set and night fall, as seabirds foraged. It was great place to return "home" to after the beach! All the best!

Tropical oasis with canal
We loved it! Our family had so much fun fishing off of the canal, swimming in the pool, and relaxing on the private beach that's walking distance from the house! House was clean, well equipped and close to the grocery store. Our family of six could stretch out and relax at this tropical oasis.

Longboat Key
My family and I had a lovely time at this property! The house is in a quiet neighborhood that is just a short walk to the beach, but is also close to everything Longboat Key has to offer. The kitchen is fully stocked and we enjoyed the bikes and kayaks. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Found our happy place. Come see why! Just bought this home and have completed extensive renovations. It just keeps getting better. Let us know how we can make your stay more enjoyable!
**update** I love spending time at our home so much that I decided to move down and become a realtor at the Longboat Key Coldwell Banker office. Please reach out if I can also help you find your dream home! Now is the time to love where you live!

Why they chose this property

Truly peaceful paradise. The new large outdoor dock space is so relaxing, beautiful and tranquil!

What makes this property unique

Unplug and get away from it all. Need more? Sarasota just a ten minute drive. Best of both worlds! Come see the dolphins play in my back yard.
