598 Bayview Dr., Longboat Key, FL 34228

Escape from the fast pace. Bring your cast nets, fishing poles and waders to this charming rustic waterfront home on the north end of Longboat Key. This "fishing camp" is on a wide bayou with nothing but a mangrove preserve across from it. Two generations have enjoyed this serene location. Kayaks and manatees love this quiet waterway. The interior has wood floors, a nice sized living room, a galley kitchen, 2 spacious bedrooms, a vintage 1953 bathroom and a dining room. The 2nd bath is conveniently located for showering after a long day of fishing, boating or beachcombing. Some may feel that the value is in the land, but a creative person could restore this "fishing camp" into a charming beach bungalow.
