RARE OFFERING of a CANAL FRONT HOME located in LONG BEACH VILLAGE on LONGBOAT KEY, 4 blocks to the SOFT SAND BEACHES of the AQUA WATERS of the GULF OF MEXICO! This canal's location with beautiful VEGETATION across the canal makes it one of the MOST PICTURESQUE and SECLUDED expanses of land and water in all of Longboat. It is a fishers dream home with the waters teeming with fish/wildlife and a 2 year, all aluminum, elevator style 7,000 POUND BOAT LIFT with platform, ramp and ladder. This canal has DIRECT ACCESS to LONGBOAT PASS, BEER CAN AND JEWFISH ISLANDS. No bridges to go under! As you walk up the coral-like stone path, the sturdy (METAL ROOF and CONCRETE BLOCK CONSTRUCTION) 2 bdrm/2 bth ISLAND HOME prioritizes the comfortable beauty of the FLORIDA-STYLE and welcomes you with a walkway of tropical flowering plantings. This light and bright coastal design styled home will immediately take your breath away with the spectacular view from the WALL OF WINDOWS of the mangrove lined waterway where you can WATCH DAILY VOGAGES of MANATEES and DOLPHINS. The dramatic style of the high ceiling in the dining area (popcorn ceilings removed throughout) of the open floor plan of the kitchen/living room/dining room, brings everyday spacious living that is perfect for entertaining friends and family. It will be a fun afternoon to be on the REBUILT COMPOSIT DECKING for your friend's luncheon. Or be cozy sitting around the wood burning fireplace for after dinner drinks. The chef will appreciate serving on the dining counter of the new kitchen with plentiful quartz countertops, wood cabinetry, and stainless-steel newer appliances highlighted by exquisitely beautiful, tiled backsplash. Some of the impressive and highly skilled upgrades from the remodel are fiber cement panel walls (AKA HARDIE BOARD) a few feet up from the PVC baseboards. All windows, the entry door and back slider are new PGT impact low E with argon gas filled. The remodeled bathrooms are updated with today's favorite choices of tiled showers, new sinks and cabinets. There are updated light fixtures, plantation shutters and blinds through-out. Outside you'll have a carport (could be converted to a garage), storage and washer/dryer closets. Your lifestyle doesn't end at boating. Take a stroll 4 blocks to the soft sand beach to play in the inviting and calm aqua waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Stay for the spectacular GREEN FLASH SUNSET! On the way back home stop in to socialize with the neighbors at one of the Village's favorite dining/drinking establishments on the BAYSIDE. You'll be convenient to the arts and entertainment districts of Sarasota/Bradenton, the world renown Ringling Museum and St. Armand's circle, many tennis/pickle ball courts and golf courses/clubs and places of worship. Nearby is SRQ airport and I-75 for trips to Orlando's amusement parks, Tampa, Naples or Miami's night life! ARE YOU READY FOR THE LIFESTYLE YOU DESERVE?
