About 1241 Gulf Of Mexico Dr Unit 803

The epitome of beachfront luxury awaits in this meticulously renovated 8th-floor residence at the prestigious Water Club on Longboat Key. This stunning 3-bedroom plus oversized study, 4-bath home is a rare offering in one of the Gulf Coast’s premier direct beachfront communities. From the moment you step off the private elevator into the foyer, you’re greeted by serene neutral tones, 10-foot ceilings, and wide-plank engineered hardwood floors that set the tone for elegant coastal living. Walls of glass frame spectacular, unobstructed views of the Gulf of Mexico, filling the expansive living spaces with natural light and breathtaking scenery. The open-concept floor plan seamlessly blends comfort and sophistication, enhanced by recessed lighting and a calming contemporary palette. The spacious living room flows onto a generous beachfront terrace—perfect for soaking in mesmerizing views and the soothing sounds of the surf. The designer kitchen is a showcase of modern design, featuring white glass subway tile backsplash, solid wood cabinetry, an induction cooktop with pot filler, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and premium stainless-steel appliances. A large center island and adjacent breakfast area provide the perfect setting for casual meals with sweeping water views. Each guest suite is a luxurious haven, including one with double queen beds and an en suite bath with soaking tub and separate shower. The third bedroom is currently configured as an office, yet spacious enough to accommodate a queen-size bed, and offers beautiful views of downtown Sarasota. The primary suite is a private retreat, featuring its own beachfront terrace, a separate sitting area, custom-fitted dual closets, and a spacious study with built-in office space. The spa-inspired primary bath is the essence of indulgence with white marble floors and walls, a freestanding soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. Additional highlights include two under-building covered garage parking spaces, a private storage closet, and access to all the amenities of the Water Club—24-hour security, full concierge service, a resort-style pool and spa, Har-Tru tennis courts, fitness center, clubhouse with catering kitchen, and over 16 acres of pristine beachfront grounds. This is beachfront living redefined—timeless elegance, modern design, and a lifestyle beyond compare.
