One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Sweeping Gulf, bay, and spectacular city skyline views set the stage for this elegant fifth-floor retreat at L'Ambiance, one of Longboat Key's most esteemed beachfront communities. Poised along the pristine shoreline and offering nearly 3,000 square feet of refined interiors, this residence delivers both sunrise and sunset splendor from two expansive terraces. Beyond the private elevator foyer, a beautifully updated interior unfolds--anchored by wide-plank wood flooring laid in a subtle diagonal pattern and framed by custom built-ins in a warm wood tone. Natural light pours in through walls of new, state-of-the-art impact glass sliders and oversized windows, casting a gentle glow throughout the entire residence. The open living and dining areas enhance the layout's effortless flow. The chef's kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring quartz countertops, sleek neutral cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a center island, and artistic tile backsplash. A cozy breakfast nook and nearby den (easily convertible into a third bedroom) create a versatile layout ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. The split-bedroom plan provides privacy and comfort. The primary suite is a tranquil escape with stunning direct Gulf views, terrace access, multiple closets, and a spa-inspired marble bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate water closet. On the opposite end, the guest suite enjoys its own terrace with exquisite views of the bay and downtown, along with a full en-suite bath. Additional features include 10-foot ceilings with detailed crown molding, convenient laundry room that also acts as a Butler's pantry with wine cooler, two secure garage parking spaces, private storage, and individual wine locker. L'Ambiance residents enjoy a host of exclusive amenities: 24-hour security, superb concierge services, updated social and fitness centers, tennis courts, and a Gulf-front heated pool and spa--all set behind the gates of the prestigious Longboat Key Club. A private boardwalk leads directly to the powdery sands of the Gulf, while nearby attractions elevate the lifestyle even further. Explore world-class golf and marina amenities, dine at acclaimed restaurants, and spend your afternoons shopping at St. Armands Circle or browsing downtown Sarasota's galleries and theaters just over the bridge. L'Ambiance is where refined luxury meets beachfront ease--an exceptional opportunity to experience coastal living at its finest.
