Virtually Staged. VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING NEW — BOAT IN YOUR BACKYARD, PRIVATE BEACH DOWN THE STREET. This is the Longboat Key lifestyle buyers dream about: boating from home, sunset walks on the Gulf, and a beautifully reimagined coastal residence that is truly move-in ready. Previously appraised at $1.65 million late last year and most recently at $1.5 million, with no material changes to the home, it is now offered at $1.35 million—an opportunity to purchase below its most recent appraised value. Set along 120 feet of canal frontage, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront home offers DIRECT BOATING ACCESS TO SARASOTA BAY AND THE INTRACOASTAL plus PRIVATE DEEDED GULF BEACH ACCESS JUST EIGHT HOMES AWAY.
