650 Penfield St, Longboat Key, FL 34228

An ELEVATED waterfront home uniquely positioned in an exceptional location on the fabulous north end of Longboat Key. This laid back, friendly, single-family neighborhood adds to the charm. With no high rises here, your morning strolls on the beach are only crowded by the shore birds. Surrounded by trees on all sides and sitting on a 10,230sf lot, when you enter into this home, you truly have a treehouse like feeling. An open great room featuring extra high ceilings with skylights let in the beautiful sunlight. An open breakfast bar allows whoever is in the nicely updated kitchen to always be a part of the party. A large deck off the great room and kitchen overlooks the serene canal and the tropical surround of trees and vegetation. The Primary bedroom also has its own covered deck with the pretty and private view and a nicely updated ensuite bath. The second bedroom offers your guests a quiet respite after a lovely day soaking in the sunshine. Keep your boat at the ready for a day on the water on the 7000lb lift., fish from your own dock, or drop in a kayak or paddleboard to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Laid back island living at its finest yet close to all the wonderful restaurants and shopping that Longboat Key has to offer. If you’re looking for more, it’s just a short drive to St.Armands Circle and the cultural mecca of downtown Sarasota and Bradenton. Although the yard and trees took a hit from the recent storms, this home has remained free of damage. Whether you are looking to enjoy this paradise full time, use it as a vacation getaway or as an income producing rental, this could be the one for you.
