Description

Perched atop the coveted South Building at L'Ambiance behind the gates of the Longboat Key Club, this extraordinary beach-to-bay penthouse redefines luxury coastal living. Encompassing nearly 5,000 square feet of refined interior space and complemented by more than 3,600 square feet of wraparound terraces, this rare residence offers the scale and privacy of a waterfront estate paired with the convenience and security of one of Longboat Key's most prestigious condominium communities. From sunrise over Sarasota Bay to spectacular sunsets melting into the Gulf of Mexico, panoramic water views create a breathtaking backdrop from nearly every room. Arrive via a private elevator that opens directly into your own grand foyer, where ornate wrought-iron double doors reveal a residence defined by architectural elegance and meticulous craftsmanship. Cathedral coffered ceilings, intricate millwork, crown molding, custom built-ins, designer lighting, and expansive walls of newer impact glass create a dramatic yet inviting atmosphere throughout. Travertine flooring flows seamlessly from room to room, while floor-to-ceiling glass sliders open to expansive terraces, blending indoor and outdoor living on an unprecedented scale. At the heart of the residence, the impressive 34-by-41-foot living room is framed by Gulf views and surrounded by multiple entertaining spaces, including formal and informal dining areas designed for both intimate gatherings and grand-scale events. The gourmet chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with custom designer cabinetry, stone countertops, decorative appliance panels, a Wolf induction cooktop, oversized island, walk-in pantry, and generous workspace for effortless entertaining. Occupying its own private wing, the primary suite is a sanctuary. A private vestibule leads to a spacious lounge area, dual walk-in closets, and spa-inspired his-and-her bathrooms featuring custom vanities, stone finishes, soaking tub, separate shower, and abundant storage. Floor-to-ceiling glass opens directly to the terrace, where sweeping Gulf views create an ever-changing panorama. Two additional guest suites offer en-suite baths and walk-in closets, while a fourth bedroom--currently configured as a charming bunkroom--provides flexibility for family and guests. A spacious study can easily serve as a fifth sleeping area or executive home office. The outdoor living experience is simply unmatched. Expansive terraces wrap around the residence, creating multiple venues for dining, entertaining, and relaxation while capturing unobstructed views stretching from the Gulf shoreline across Sarasota Bay, the Longboat Key Club golf courses, and the downtown Sarasota skyline. L'Ambiance is widely regarded as one of Longboat Key's premier beachfront addresses, offering residents exceptional amenities including 24-hour gated security, concierge services, on-site management, a recently renovated lobby and clubhouse, social rooms, fitness center, tennis courts, resort-style heated swimming pool and spa, private beach access, and a picturesque boardwalk leading directly to the Gulf of Mexico. Ideally positioned within the Longboat Key Club community, residents enjoy proximity to championship golf, tennis, marina facilities, waterfront dining, and miles of pristine Gulf beaches. This remarkable penthouse represents a rare opportunity to own one of the largest and most impressive beachfront residences on Florida's Gulf Coast.

Who is the best real estate agent on Longboat Key?

Roger Pettingell is consistently ranked the top-producing individual agent on Longboat Key, with over $200 million in closed sales volume and decades of experience representing buyers and sellers across every zone of the island. He has sold more homes on Longboat Key than any other agent and knows the specific attributes of each community -- from the South Key gated estates near the St. Regis to the high-rise condos along Mid-Key and the Old Florida private estates on the North End. For buyers, he provides off-market access. For sellers, he brings the buyer network that moves luxury property at full price.

Is Longboat Key a good place to buy real estate?

Longboat Key is one of the most consistently desirable barrier islands in Florida for luxury real estate investment. Its 30-day minimum rental policy protects property values and neighborhood character, making it ideal for end-users, snowbirds, and buyers who prioritize equity appreciation over short-term rental income. The island's limited land supply, Gulf-front positioning, and access to Sarasota's arts and cultural amenities create sustained demand. The St. Regis resort presence on the south end has further elevated the island's profile for ultra-luxury buyers.

What is the difference between North and South Longboat Key?

South Longboat Key (the gated "The Gates" area) is characterized by resort-adjacent exclusivity -- the St. Regis Longboat Key, Country Club Shores, and Bay Isles are concentrated here, offering golf club access and the highest price per square foot on the island. Mid-Key features panoramic Gulf-view high-rises including Water Club, Grand Bay, and L'Ambiance. North Longboat Key (The Village) has an Old Florida atmosphere with low-rise estates and private residences, attracting buyers who prefer a quieter, less resort-driven lifestyle at slightly lower price points than the south end.

What are the rental rules on Longboat Key?

Longboat Key enforces a 30-day minimum rental policy, which prohibits short-term rentals (Airbnb, VRBO, or weekly rentals) throughout the island. This ordinance is one of the defining factors that separates Longboat Key from Siesta Key, which allows weekly and daily rentals. The 30-day minimum makes Longboat Key more attractive to buyers focused on a quiet residential experience and long-term appreciation rather than rental cash flow.

Where is Longboat Key located?

Longboat Key is a barrier island located west of Sarasota, Florida, in Sarasota County. It stretches 12 miles along the Gulf of Mexico, connected to the mainland via bridges. The island runs from Sarasota Bay on the east to the Gulf on the west, with Sarasota directly to the south and Manatee County at the north end. ZIP code is 34228. It is approximately 10 minutes from downtown Sarasota by car.

How far is Longboat Key from Siesta Key?

Longboat Key and Siesta Key are separated by approximately 15-20 minutes of driving time (around 12 miles), passing through downtown Sarasota. They are not directly connected -- you travel via the mainland. Despite being neighboring barrier islands in the Sarasota area, they have distinctly different characters: Longboat Key is quieter, more exclusive, and resort-adjacent, while Siesta Key is more tourist-oriented with weekly rental activity and the famous white-quartz sand beach that draws significant seasonal traffic.
