luxury seaside properties for sale Manatee County, United States

Private island home for sale on Jewfish Key, Longboat Key, Florida. This 4-bedroom, 4-bath waterfront residence sits on a 1.24-acre titled lot with approximately 300 feet of water frontage and a private deep-water dock, and it is reached only by boat. It is one of just eight homes on this roughly 38-acre island at Longboat Pass. 7143 La Lenaire Drive is offered turnkey and furnished, and it is on the market for the first time in more than two decades. Reached only by boat, this private island home offers something rare on Florida's coast: luxury, privacy, and room to truly disconnect. Far from crowded waterfront rentals, it's a place to slow down, enjoy the people you came with, and share an experience your family and friends will never forget. The home was custom built in 2011 and has more than 2,700 square feet of living space, designed around sweeping west-facing water views and easy indoor-outdoor living. The main living areas open to covered outdoor space overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway, and at sunset the evening light fills the rooms. The layout works as well for a quiet weekend for two as it does for a full house of guests. Walk down to your own deep-water dock, with direct boating access to Sarasota Bay, the Intracoastal, Longboat Pass, and the Gulf. Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key, and St. Armands Circle are minutes away by water, so Sarasota and Bradenton dining, shopping, beaches, and culture are easy to reach while your evenings stay quiet and private. Jewfish Key is surrounded by sandbars, clear shallows, native wildlife, and natural shoreline, a setting that is increasingly hard to find along the Gulf Coast. This property works as a primary residence, a private Florida vacation home, or an income-producing investment. With four bedrooms, four baths, and a boat-access location unlike anything else on the rental market, it offers strong short-term and seasonal rental potential for investors seeking a one-of-a-kind luxury waterfront asset between Longboat Key and Anna Maria Island.
