701 Emerald Harbor Dr., Longboat Key, FL 34228

Nestled on the simply serene north end of Longboat Key, here is a fabulous value-priced opportunity for waterfront living on 100 ft. of a peaceful canal. The Emerald Harbor neighborhood is renowned for its eclectic, enchanting atmosphere and wide canals with easy, unobstructed access out to Sarasota Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Originally built in 1972, this charming property with boat lift, dock and capped seawall has been impeccably cared-for and welcomes your personal touch. The spacious interiors include an entire master wing which has been updated to include an office space, walk-in closet and refreshed bathroom. A wonderful connection to the outdoors is provided by glass sliders which open to the private resurfaced pool. The kitchen is the center of daily life, and makes it easy to entertain with windows that open to the pool deck and bar, plus a separate dining space for special occasions. A large living room, family room with cozy fireplace, a generous laundry room and spacious guest bedrooms are also featured in this thoughtfully-sequenced plan. The exterior has been re-painted and the tile roof replaced, along with installation of all new windows throughout the home, a new water heater and newer HVAC in 2014. A two-car garage and paver driveway is a convenient finishing touch. This private neighborhood is convenient to Publix grocery and St. Armand’s Circle, and offers deeded beach access plus close proximity to the Longboat Key Club’s golf and tennis.
