SEA GATE, a boutique 89-unit building, stands apart with its exceptional proximity to the Gulf, offering an intimate connection to the water that larger complexes simply can't match. With over 350 feet of pristine shoreline and private beach, this is the perfect setting to watch dolphins, manatees, and vibrant fish glide through the water by day, then take in mesmerizing Gulf sunsets from your private west-facing balcony each evening. Offering some of the most breathtaking, unobstructed water views on Longboat Key, this rare 3rd-floor unit takes full advantage of its Gulf-front location, with panoramic vistas from every room and an exclusive corner window that enhances natural light and coastal scenery. With only two units sold in early 2024, this home presents a rare opportunity to embrace the ultimate beachfront lifestyle.
Designed to blend sophistication with coastal charm, the open-concept home showcases high-end finishes throughout, including gorgeous countertops, custom cabinetry, and designer lighting--each element thoughtfully curated to enhance elegance, luxury, and comfort. The kitchen was completely reimagined and the owners designed the space with thoughtful touches such as the convenient granite island to enjoy a coffee or wine and extending the granite counter and cabinets for tons of storage. The primary bedroom is a serene retreat, featuring upgraded soft ivory carpet replaced in fall 2024, a floor-to-ceiling view of the Gulf, and not one ...but two, closets. En-suite bath is sparkling with quartz countertops and walk in shower. The secondary bedroom is equally impressive, with a spacious layout, double closets, quartz countertops and new carpeting replaced fall 2024 ...and yet another stunning Gulf view, perfect for family or guests as they have their own private bathroom.
Meticulously maintained, SEA GATE has undergone significant recent updates, including a full exterior restucco and repaint in 2022, a new roof in 2023, impact windows installed in 2021, and AC cooling tower upgrades in 2025, ensuring both beauty and structural integrity for years to come. Summer 2025 a new sunning deck will be added adjacent to the pool
Resort-style amenities abound, with a sparkling pool, hot tub, fitness center, clay tennis court, a serene library room, bike storage, and dedicated kayak and paddleboard storage for endless waterfront adventures. Shaded tiki huts provide the perfect retreat, while outdoor showers offer a refreshing rinse after a day at the beach. A private social room with a chef's kitchen is also available for hosting gatherings and celebrations. Summer 2025 a new sunning deck will be added adjacent to the pool.
Perfectly positioned in South Longboat Key, SEA GATE places you just minutes from the best of both worlds--the beauty of Anna Maria Island's pristine beaches just to the north and the vibrant energy of downtown Sarasota with all of the restaurants, entertainment and culture you could ask for. Just three miles away, St. Armands Circle offers a sophisticated yet inviting mix of fine dining, boutique shopping, and laid-back coastal charm. The convenience of CVS and Publix just steps away literally across the street makes everyday living effortless. Don't forget the super convenient Longboat Key Bayfront Park for pickleball, tennis, shuffleboard, playground and kayak launch. For boaters, the Longboat Key Moorings is across the street or there are several Marina's to choose from.
