For the boating enthusiast, it simply does not get better than this — deep water access, protected dockage, and open water within minutes.

It is one of the few locations on Longboat Key where you can wake up to undisturbed natural beauty in every direction while remaining just moments from the finest dining, boutique shopping, and white-sand Gulf beaches the island has to offer. Longboat Key — Florida's Premier Barrier Island Stretching 11 miles along Florida's Gulf Coast with over 25 miles of combined waterfront between the Gulf of Mexico and Sarasota Bay, Longboat Key is consistently ranked among the most desirable addresses in the country. With a median home price approaching $2.5 million in 2026, the island attracts discerning buyers who demand privacy, natural beauty, and world-class amenities — including the legendary Longboat Key Club, with 45 holes of championship golf, a full-service deep-water marina, spa, and beach club. Opportunities like this — a custom home, double waterfront, dock and lift, and the freedom to personalize — are extraordinarily rare on Longboat Key.
