About this home
A Gulf-Front Masterpiece on Longboat Key! This stunning Gulf-front estate is perfectly placed on nearly an acre of pristine Gulf-front property along the shoreline on Longboat Key. With direct Gulf frontage, this architectural masterpiece offers more than 6,900 square feet of refined interiors and panoramic views that stretch endlessly across the Gulf of Mexico. Designed for both privacy and grand-scale entertaining, the residence balances timeless craftsmanship with recent enhancements including a 2025 primary bath remodel, newer French doors, and resort-style pool and spa with natural gas heating and fire pit. From the moment you arrive through the circular drive, the home’s elegant façade, manicured landscaping, and elevated design make a commanding first impression. Inside, expansive living areas are defined by travertine and hardwood flooring, soaring coffered ceilings, crown molding, and walls of glass framing breathtaking views. The open floor plan flows effortlessly from the formal living and dining rooms to the family room and gourmet kitchen, designed for effortless entertaining. The chef’s kitchen showcases custom wood cabinetry, granite counters, a large island, high-end appliances, double ovens, and a breakfast nook overlooking the Gulf. The main-floor primary suite offers a serene retreat with direct beach views, its own private terrace, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-like new bath featuring dual vanities, stone counters, and a freestanding soaking tub. A private elevator connects all levels, including a versatile second-story loft, media room, and four additional bedrooms (some en-suite) providing ample comfort for family and guests. The outdoor living space defines Florida luxury—complete with an expansive travertine deck, heated pool and spa, summer kitchen, and multiple covered terraces designed for dining and relaxation. Enjoy vibrant sunsets over the Gulf from nearly every vantage point. The property also features new hurricane-rated French doors, a whole-house generator with raised platform, and a three-car side-entry garage with guest parking. Located on the prestigious north end of Longboat Key, this gated estate offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility.
