Entering from the semi-private elevator lobby, you are welcomed into a light-filled open floor plan with soaring 10-foot ceilings and expansive walls of glass. As one of the most desirable end units in the building, this residence enjoys an additional wall of windows, flooding the interior with natural light and showcasing panoramic Gulf views from nearly every room.
The expansive great room, connecting to a nearly 500-square-foot covered terrace — your front-row seat to spectacular sunsets over the turquoise waters. A private staircase from the terrace provides direct access to the beach and Gulf-front pool and spa, creating a rare and effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
The updated eat-in kitchen features a serving bar, walk-in pantry, and generous storage, along with a full laundry room. The split floor plan offers privacy for owners and guests alike. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with direct Gulf views, private terrace access, generous closets, and a spacious en-suite bath. The guest wing includes a second en-suite bedroom and a third bedroom or flexible den space with adjacent bath.
Villa Di Lancia is an exclusive boutique community with only 19 residences per building, offering resort-style amenities including a heated Gulf-front pool and spa, Har-Tru tennis and pickleball courts, a state-of-the-art fitness center, steam room, clubhouse with social room and kitchen, on-site management, 24-hour manned gate, EV charging station, secured under-building parking, guest parking, and a private storage room. The community is pet-friendly and impeccably maintained.
Ideally located on the southern end of Longboat Key, residents enjoy proximity to fine and casual dining, golf, marinas, shopping, St. Armands Circle, and Sarasota’s cultural attractions. Residences here are rarely available. This is a rare opportunity to own a luxurious beachfront sanctuary and experience refined coastal living at its finest.
