Local Insight
At $571/sqft for a waterfront condo built in 1983, you're getting reasonable value for Longboat Key's luxury positioning, but factor in that AE flood zone designation—your insurance and financing costs will reflect serious storm risk, and you'll want a full flood assessment before committing. The 1.62-acre lot is unusually generous for a condo unit and suggests direct water access rather than shared, which is a meaningful amenity here, though the age of the building means scrutinizing the structural integrity, roof condition, and reserve fund status given Florida's insurance and weather pressures on older coastal properties.
