A luxurious coastal retreat at the water's edge on Longboat Key, 641 Ranger Lane captures the essence of relaxed waterfront luxury. Set on a rare .42-acre corner lot with over 270 feet of prime waterfrontage, this coastal estate offers four bedrooms, 5.5 baths and 7,033 square feet of refined living space. With sweeping views from nearly every room, this home lives as beautifully as it entertains. A dramatic foyer and staircase introduce the home and the craftsmanship throughout. Travertine floors and dark crown molding flow through the main living areas, and a two-stop elevator adds effortless access to all levels. The open-concept great room appeals with a sleek linear fireplace and walls of sliding glass doors that frame the water, blurring the boundary between indoors and out. The beautifully designed kitchen was created with function and flow in mind. Two oversized islands feature seating, dual wine coolers, ice makers and generous storage. The professional-grade Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf cooking suite, custom pantry with a built-in coffee station complete with pot filler and coffee pod drawer, and hidden outlets throughout speak to thoughtful luxury. Start your day with coffee in the window-lined breakfast area and end it hosting guests in the elegant dining room with designer wallpaper, a statement chandelier and room to entertain. Step outside to experience island living through a series of outdoor vignettes. A covered area with a wood ceiling and built-in wet bar sets the stage for alfresco dining with coastal breezes. The infinity-edge pool appears to spill seamlessly into the water beyond. Nearby, a hammock sways between two coconut palms, while a fully equipped outdoor kitchen leads to a sunken fire pit lounge, near the seawall for unobstructed views of the bay. With a concrete seawall and ample room for a new custom dock and lift (waiting for installation date), the property is primed for water enthusiasts. The first floor also offers a bonus space-- a bunk room--with soaring ceilings, coastal design and sliders to the pool deck.
