About this home

Spacious 3-Bedroom End-Unit Residence in Sought-After Beachplace Welcome to this beautifully maintained three-bedroom, two-bath end-unit condominium offering exceptional natural light, generous living spaces, and serene views in one of South Longboat Key’s most desirable beachfront communities. The open living and dining areas are thoughtfully designed for comfort and entertaining, featuring expansive sliders and windows that flood the space with sunlight and create seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A spacious living room opens to a south-facing screened lanai—perfect for enjoying morning light, golf course views, and gentle coastal breezes. The kitchen is bright and functional, offering ample cabinetry, full appliance package, and convenient in-unit laundry tucked neatly into a dedicated closet. Adjacent dining space provides flexibility for everyday living or hosting guests. The primary suite is generously sized and enjoys tranquil views, abundant natural light, and direct access to the lanai. Two additional bedrooms are versatility for guests, family, or a home office, all thoughtfully laid out to maximize privacy and comfort. Being an end unit, this residence benefits from additional windows and enhanced light throughout, creating an airy, welcoming atmosphere. Neutral finishes and tasteful furnishings allow for immediate enjoyment while offering an excellent canvas for personalization. Residents of Beachplace enjoy resort-style amenities, including a heated pool with lap lanes, spa, tennis courts, a fully equipped clubhouse with gathering spaces, on-site management, and private deeded beach access complete with lounge chairs and umbrellas. The community’s prime location places you moments from St. Armands Circle, Longboat Key Club, and downtown Sarasota’s dining, shopping, and cultural attractions. This well-cared-for residence presents an outstanding opportunity—whether as a primary home, vacation retreat, or income-producing investment in a premier Gulf-front community.
