About this home
Wake up to the Gulf of Mexico just beyond your windows at this beautifully updated, fully furnished residence at Sea Gate Club, a private Gulf-front community on the coveted southern end of Longboat Key. Perfectly positioned in a quiet third-floor corner location, this two-bedroom, two-bath retreat offers more than 1,600 square feet of coastal living, spectacular Gulf views, and convenient access to recently enhanced resort-style amenities. Floor-to-ceiling impact-rated windows and sliding glass doors fill the residence with natural light while keeping the turquoise waters and sandy shoreline constantly in view. The open layout flows from the extended foyer into spacious living and dining areas, where oversized tile flooring and a neutral palette create a relaxed, contemporary atmosphere. Walls of glass draw your attention toward the Gulf, while sliding doors open to the private covered balcony. A newer glass railing preserves the sweeping views, creating an inviting setting for morning coffee, sea breezes, and unforgettable sunsets. The renovated kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, glass tile backsplash, breakfast bar, generous storage, and an extended workspace with built-in planning desk overlooking the Gulf. The adjoining dining area is surrounded by windows, allowing water views to remain part of every meal. The spacious east-facing primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a walk-in closet and updated en-suite bath featuring stone countertops and a walk-in shower. The second bedroom, currently arranged as a den, provides flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional living space. An updated guest bath and convenient in-residence laundry complete the floor plan. The residence is offered furnished and move-in ready. Sea Gate Club is an intimate Gulf-front community of just 90 residences that has undergone extensive improvements, including a newer 2024/2025 roof, exterior restoration, refreshed stucco, newer windows and sliders, updated entryways and corridors, redesigned social room with catering kitchen, and refreshed fitness center.
