About The Property

Welcome to 6700 Gulf of Mexico Drive #117, a beautifully reimagined end-unit 2-bedroom, 2 full bath residence in the sought-after Whitney Beach community on Longboat Key. Taken down to the studs and completely renovated, this waterfront condominium offers coastal living with sweeping views of Bishop’s Bayou, abundant natural light, and exceptional privacy. A private front courtyard welcomes you inside, where new high-end luxury vinyl plank flooring flows throughout, and a bright, open layout immediately draws your eye to the water. As an end unit, additional windows enhance the airy feel, while hurricane-impact windows and sliding doors frame tranquil bayou views. From the main living space—and even from the primary bedroom upon waking—you’ll enjoy peaceful scenes of dolphins, manatees, and glowing sunsets reflecting across the water. The fully redesigned kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry, custom glass-front accents, classic subway tile backsplash, designer pendant lighting, peninsula seating for four, and a full suite of GE stainless steel appliances—all positioned to capture the water views. Both bathrooms have been completely renovated with glass walk-in showers, elegant tilework, and quartz-topped vanities, offering a clean, modern aesthetic. A new Whirlpool stackable washer and dryer adds everyday convenience. Whitney Beach is a unique beach-to-bay community with deeded private access to the Gulf just across the street. Residents enjoy resort-style amenities including pools, tennis courts, shuffleboard, barbecue areas, kayak storage and launch, walking paths, and a tranquil bayfront pavilion. Boat slips are available when offered, and the community pier provides a charming setting for fishing or relaxing by the water. Ideally located on the north end of Longboat Key, this residence offers easy access to Anna Maria Island, as well as the dining, shopping, and cultural attractions of Sarasota. Whether as a full-time home, seasonal retreat, or investment, this is an exceptional opportunity to enjoy the best of bay-to-beach living. Professional photos coming soon.
