Description

Tucked away on the coveted north end of Longboat Key, this custom-designed coastal contemporary residence offers a rare blend of modern architecture, boating access, and waterfront living. Designed by architect Mark Sultana of DSDG, the home was completed in 2011. Positioned along a protected saltwater canal with private dockage and just moments from the Gulf's sandy shoreline, this island retreat captures tranquil water views, tropical surroundings, and spectacular sunsets from multiple levels.
Spanning nearly 3,100 square feet, the four-bedroom layout is designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The main level serves as the heart of the home, where soaring 18-foot whitewashed cypress ceilings crown the open great room. A contemporary gas fireplace with gray glass tile anchors the living area, while walls of impact-rated glass fill the residence with natural light and frame views of the canal and lush mangroves beyond. The open-concept design seamlessly connects the living room, dining area, and gourmet kitchen, creating an ideal environment for both entertaining and everyday enjoyment.
The chef's kitchen is appointed with custom solid-wood cabinetry by Campbell Designs, quartz countertops, glass tile backsplash, breakfast bar, oversized pantry, water filtration, and premium appliances. Thoughtful details such as Lutron lighting system, built-in audio throughout the interior and exterior, impact-rated doors and windows, soft-close drawers, metal barrel roof, propane-fueled pool heater and outdoor grill, oversized two-car garage with workshop, abundant storage, and dedicated kayak storage enhance both function and style.
An open staircase crafted from powder-coated aluminum with blonde maple treads creates an architectural focal point while connecting the living spaces. The second level is devoted to private accommodations, highlighted by the primary suite featuring dual walk-in closets, a private waterfront terrace, and spa-inspired bath with freestanding soaking tub, marble-topped dual vanity, oversized glass shower, and separate water closet. Two additional guest bedrooms share a beautifully appointed bath, with one currently configured as a den.
Adding exceptional flexibility, a detached cabana suite overlooks the pool deck and serves as a private guest retreat. Complete with a full bath, walk-in closet, morning kitchen, and separate entrance, this space functions perfectly as a fourth bedroom, guest quarters, home office, or artist's studio.
Outdoor living is equally impressive. White terrazzo terraces on each floor overlook the 36-foot lap pool and spa with waterfall feature, creating a private tropical setting enhanced extensive landscape lighting, mature exotic foliage, and lush zoysia grass. The private IPE wood dock includes an 8,000-pound lift, kayak launch, water and electric service, and underwater lighting for boating enthusiasts.
Located on one of Longboat Key's most desirable stretches, residents enjoy easy access to the island's pristine Gulf beaches, waterfront dining, marinas, and scenic biking paths. The Longboat Key Club's golf and tennis facilities are nearby, while St. Armands Circle offers boutique shopping and acclaimed restaurants just minutes away. Downtown Sarasota's cultural attractions are easily accessible, creating an exceptional coastal lifestyle that blends privacy, recreation, and convenience.

Who is the best real estate agent on Longboat Key?

Roger Pettingell is consistently ranked the top-producing individual agent on Longboat Key, with over $200 million in closed sales volume and decades of experience representing buyers and sellers across every zone of the island. He has sold more homes on Longboat Key than any other agent and knows the specific attributes of each community -- from the South Key gated estates near the St. Regis to the high-rise condos along Mid-Key and the Old Florida private estates on the North End. For buyers, he provides off-market access. For sellers, he brings the buyer network that moves luxury property at full price.

Is Longboat Key a good place to buy real estate?

Longboat Key is one of the most consistently desirable barrier islands in Florida for luxury real estate investment. Its 30-day minimum rental policy protects property values and neighborhood character, making it ideal for end-users, snowbirds, and buyers who prioritize equity appreciation over short-term rental income. The island's limited land supply, Gulf-front positioning, and access to Sarasota's arts and cultural amenities create sustained demand. The St. Regis resort presence on the south end has further elevated the island's profile for ultra-luxury buyers.

What is the difference between North and South Longboat Key?

South Longboat Key (the gated "The Gates" area) is characterized by resort-adjacent exclusivity -- the St. Regis Longboat Key, Country Club Shores, and Bay Isles are concentrated here, offering golf club access and the highest price per square foot on the island. Mid-Key features panoramic Gulf-view high-rises including Water Club, Grand Bay, and L'Ambiance. North Longboat Key (The Village) has an Old Florida atmosphere with low-rise estates and private residences, attracting buyers who prefer a quieter, less resort-driven lifestyle at slightly lower price points than the south end.

What are the rental rules on Longboat Key?

Longboat Key enforces a 30-day minimum rental policy, which prohibits short-term rentals (Airbnb, VRBO, or weekly rentals) throughout the island. This ordinance is one of the defining factors that separates Longboat Key from Siesta Key, which allows weekly and daily rentals. The 30-day minimum makes Longboat Key more attractive to buyers focused on a quiet residential experience and long-term appreciation rather than rental cash flow.

Where is Longboat Key located?

Longboat Key is a barrier island located west of Sarasota, Florida, in Sarasota County. It stretches 12 miles along the Gulf of Mexico, connected to the mainland via bridges. The island runs from Sarasota Bay on the east to the Gulf on the west, with Sarasota directly to the south and Manatee County at the north end. ZIP code is 34228. It is approximately 10 minutes from downtown Sarasota by car.

How far is Longboat Key from Siesta Key?

Longboat Key and Siesta Key are separated by approximately 15-20 minutes of driving time (around 12 miles), passing through downtown Sarasota. They are not directly connected -- you travel via the mainland. Despite being neighboring barrier islands in the Sarasota area, they have distinctly different characters: Longboat Key is quieter, more exclusive, and resort-adjacent, while Siesta Key is more tourist-oriented with weekly rental activity and the famous white-quartz sand beach that draws significant seasonal traffic.
