Under contract-accepting backup offers. Set at the quiet end of the canal, with open water just beyond the dock and the beach only minutes away, this Country Club Shores home offers an easy, comfortable waterfront lifestyle on South Longboat Key. The 4-bedroom, 3-bath residence spans approximately 2,162 square feet and has been thoughtfully updated to feel open, inviting, and easy to live in. Mature landscaping, a paver driveway and walkway, and a double-door entry create an appealing first impression. Inside, the open floor plan features neutral tones, wood tile flooring, crown molding, plantation shutters, and recessed lighting. The living room is both relaxed and refined, with a built-in electric fireplace and a custom TV niche that keeps the space clean and uncluttered. The kitchen sits at the heart of the home and works well for both daily living and entertaining. It includes white quartz countertops, white cabinetry, a statement range hood, stainless steel Bosch appliances, a tiled backsplash, and a breakfast bar. An adjacent dining area with built-ins adds storage without interrupting the flow. The primary suite offers privacy and comfort, with clerestory windows for added natural light, direct access to the pool, and an updated bath featuring dual vanities, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and a spacious custom closet. The additional bedrooms are well-appointed and versatile, suitable for guests, an office, or everyday use. Impact sliders open to a covered and screened lanai overlooking the pool, where a waterfall feature adds a subtle focal point. Brick pavers and lush landscaping surround the outdoor area, creating a comfortable space for entertaining or quiet time outdoors. A paver path leads to the private dock, recently updated and equipped with a boat lift and jet ski platform, all on excellent boating water with direct access to Sarasota Bay. Additional features include a side-entry garage, barrel tile roof, and high-impact glass throughout. Country Club Shores is one of Longboat Key’s established waterfront communities, offering DEEDED BEACH ACCESS and a convenient south-end location close to St. Armands Circle and downtown Sarasota.
