HUGH PRICE REDUCTION!!!Welcome to historic Longbeach Village, the first neighborhood, established on Longboat Key in 1885. As you enter The Village you will notice a variety of architectural home styles from the 1930s to the present day reflecting the diversity of the folks who live here. This wonderful home has stunning water views of Sarasota Bay, The Village harbor with its small public beach, the town dock, and the boat ramp all of which serve as community gathering spots to launch your boat, kayaks, canoes, and view sunrises, sunsets, dolphins, manatees, and aquatic birds. Pelicans love this placid harbor. Capture and immerse yourself in these magical surroundings from the spacious elevated second level front deck. The open concept great room with the three sets of French doors and seven windows is flooded with natural light. The kitchen offers bay views and will be the envy of amateur as well as gourmet cooks. Here you will enjoy a Sub-Zero refrigerator, two drawer Sub Zero freezer, Wolf 5 burner range, large Wolf oven, Miele steam oven, Tanzanian granite counter tops, custom German cabinets, large and deep storage drawers, workstation, and travertine floors. The great room includes an abundance of recessed lighting and a free-standing wood burning fireplace on a raised hearth as well as a dining area with a distinctive wood table, benches, and chairs. The primary bedroom has water views, access to the wrap around deck through sliding glass doors, and a large walk-in closet, en-suite bathroom with striking wood vanity and marble-like glass sink and dual rainfall shower heads. The powder room off the great room has high end fixtures. The guest bedroom has twin beds, a ceiling fan and rolling shades to keep the light out. The adjoining room could function as an office, art studio, or an extra bedroom. The bathroom has a shower stall and a walk-in closet. The oversized two car garage has hurricane reinforced doors, windows, a work bench, ample shelving throughout and peg boards for tools. A composite “wood” deck that is impervious to rot and insects, surrounds the entire house creating massive outdoor living space. The back deck, overlooking a beautifully landscaped yard, has a heated hot tub, a dining area which has a new awning, and a staircase leading to the backyard, guest house/studio, and new two-person barrel sauna in 2023. The guest house/studio was totally renovated by current owners in 2015 with new Hardi Board siding and insulation.
