If you are looking for a tranquil island escape or a fabulous investment property in a friendly neighborhood on fabulous Longboat Key, this may be the home for you! This house has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, a beautifully renovated kitchen with stainless appliances, and is fully furnished with a designer's touch. The great room features a wall of French doors that open to the sparkling pool, making it perfect for indoor/outdoor entertaining. It is situated on a great canal with a very short distance to the intracoastal waterway and there are no fixed bridges for a perfect day out on the water. When you return, you can relax by your pool surrounded by peaceful gardens or stroll across the street to the watch the sunset at the neighborhood beach which stretches for miles along the gorgeous Gulf of Mexico. Lyons Lane is a special street with homes only on one side and a protected wetland on the other side that will never be built on, so your views out front are just as peaceful. The North end of Longboat Key features a number of great restaurants and shopping within a short bike ride, but the shopping and nightlife of St.Armands Circle and downtown Sarasota is also available just over the bridges, making this island escape a perfect balance for a remarkable quality of life.
