Finding a Longboat Key 3 bedroom condo with direct views of the Gulf of Mexico, boat dockage and priced under $1.2M is like finding a snowflake in July. But this is your lucky day! Listen to the waves and watch the sunset on your 44-foot long balcony, half of which is screened. This condo is a corner unit with windows on 3 sides and 2 separate balconies. Yes, that’s right, every main room has access to a balcony. The condo has been lovingly maintained through the decades and has been owned by one family. With a neutral color palette & furnished, it is ready to be rented for a one month minimum 3 times per year as it is. Or you may wish to remodel turning it into a coastal chic showplace of your own. The Trane A/C was installed in 2017 and the Rheem hot water heater in 2018. You have the added convenience of an in-unit laundry room, assigned storage units, bike storage and underbuilding owner parking as well as ample guest parking. Mark III condo fees cover everything but electricity and content-dwelling insurance. Boat dockage is available to rent and a tennis court or 2 pickle ball courts were recently resurfaced, resealed, and line striped. Both docks & courts are on-site at bayside sister complex, Mark I, 1.4 miles north at 4140 Gulf of Mexico Drive. Mark III is located mid-key; therefore restaurants, post office, hardware store, Publix, CVS, and banks are just a quick drive or bike ride away. It doesn’t get better than this.
