Property Description

Longboat Key Waterfront Estate Lifestyle
Unrivaled in privacy, craftsmanship, and waterfront lifestyle, this gated Lighthouse Point residence lives like a grand coastal estate, with 4 Bedrooms, 4-1/2 Baths, and nearly 5,000 square feet of refined interiors opening to sweeping terraces on two levels and serene views over a secluded, bridgeless-access lagoon leading directly to the Gulf of Mexico. Extensively renovated in 2021, the two-story Mediterranean-inspired home blends timeless architecture with a sophisticated contemporary aesthetic, framed by manicured tropical grounds on over one-third of an acre in one of Longboat Key’s most exclusive enclaves.
Dramatic Arrival & Entertaining Spaces
A soaring central foyer with coffered tongue-and-groove ceiling, arched French casement doors, and an elegant wraparound catwalk establishes a dramatic sense of arrival while capturing water, sky, and lush landscaping in every direction. The main living area is designed for effortless entertaining, with a sleek wood-and-stone feature wall, modern fireplace, and sculptural Tom Dixon lighting flowing through expansive glass sliders to the waterfront terrace and saltwater pool and spa.
Gourmet Kitchen & Waterfront Lounge
The fully reimagined Cucina Ricci kitchen serves as a chef’s workspace and social hub, with minimalist custom cabinetry, a generous island with seating, and an ultra-premium Miele VitroLine suite including double ovens, induction cooktop, and integrated coffee station. Just beyond, a waterfront lounge or media den opens directly to the covered loggia, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience enhanced by an integrated Yamaha sound system for both interior and exterior zones.
Owner’s Retreat & Guest Level
Perfectly positioned for privacy, the main-level owner’s retreat is a secluded sanctuary with its own hallway entrance, multiple terrace access points, tray ceiling, recessed lighting, and windows on three sides framing tranquil water views. The suite is completed by dual renovated walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bath with oversized vanities, private water closet, and expansive walk-in shower with rain head, while upstairs three en suite guest suites and a mezzanine den provide luxurious accommodations and flexible space.
Resort-Caliber Grounds & Boating
Outside, meticulously lit landscaping, a travertine-framed saltwater pool and spa, and a private dock with 14,000 lb lift, new motors, and enhanced WiFi create a turnkey boating haven with immediate access to Sarasota Bay and the Gulf. Practical amenities include whole-house Kohler generator, hurricane protection, impact glass, large utility room with dual Sub-Zero wine refrigerators, and an oversized three-car garage with EV charger wiring.
Premier Longboat Key Location
Set behind the gates of Lighthouse Point, residents enjoy private tennis, a serene low-density streetscape, and a short walk to the beach. The address is just minutes from the Longboat Key Club’s golf and tennis, the boutiques and restaurants of St. Armands Circle, and the cultural attractions of downtown Sarasota.
