5055 GULF OF MEXICO DRIVE 315

Miami chic meets Gulf-front living on Longboat Key. This turnkey, fully renovated first-floor residence at Club Longboat Beach & Tennis pairs an urban edge with easy beach living: raised ceilings with exposed ductwork and linear AC vents, and a sophisticated palette of black, grey, stone, and taupe. The open floor plan was reimagined for light and flow, with a former den removed to create a flexible studio or office space. The kitchen features white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a new induction cooktop with hood, stone backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, a working island with storage, and a breakfast bar with glass shelving and glass-paned cabinets overlooking the elongated dining room and great room. The owner's suite feels like a boutique hotel, with back-to-back vanities and mirrors facing the whirlpool tub on one side and the walk-in shower on the other, organic stone vessel sinks, pebble flooring, a Toto washlet, and a built-in towel cabinet. A hallway lined with custom cabinetry keeps everything organized, and the suite opens to its own patio lounging area. The guest suite has its own bath with a Toto washlet down the hall, plus an adjacent reading room and flex room, ideal for a Peloton, Pilates reformer, or an additional sitting room. A stackable washer and dryer is tucked into one of the many closets. Approximately 1,484 square feet with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and flex space. Hurricane impact doors and sliders throughout, with floor-to-ceiling plantation shutters. Each room opens onto lushly landscaped paver walkways and a large private patio for dining alfresco or reading in the sun. No elevators or long walks: covered parking is at your doorstep, with an outside storage closet steps away. The resort offers approximately 750 feet of Gulf-front beach with chairs and umbrellas, eight Har-Tru tennis courts with an on-site pro, pickleball, two heated pools with separate adult and family areas, spa, sauna, grilling, bocce, and fishing. On-site management and an active social calendar round out the experience, and a newly renovated clubhouse with expanded fitness and social spaces is planned. Pet-friendly for owners, including large dogs. 30-day minimum rentals, up to 12 leases per year. The mid-key location puts boating, golf, and the dining and shopping of St. Armands Circle just minutes away.
