About 640 Fox St

Nestled in the sought-after historic Longbeach Village on Longboat Key’s north end, this home offers a unique coastal lifestyle on a spacious corner lot with mature shade trees. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom home with lanai and one-car garage features a concrete block exterior with a stucco finish and the roof was replaced in 2019. The bedrooms were enlarged and enhanced to include a storm-rated slider and an expanded window added for natural light. The kitchen was redesigned with designer upper cabinetry, recessed cabinet lighting, quartz countertops, a coordinating backsplash, and a frosted glass bar. The screened patio was reconstructed with a knee wall, seamlessly integrating the space into the main living area. The plumbing system has been fully updated, with cast-iron outflow pipes lined and water lines replaced. The fenced backyard features a brick paver patio and mature tropical landscaping, creating a private oasis. The driveway has been upgraded with eye-catching brick pavers. The property experienced water damage from Helene, but offers opportunities for renovating, elevating the existing structure, adding a pool, or building a custom coastal retreat on its spacious corner lot. The current block home’s doorways were retrofitted with a flood gate system for added protection from future storms. Easily access the breathtaking turquoise waters and white sandy beaches of the Gulf at the nearby path over the dunes, where you can enjoy days on the beach or take in the stunning Florida sunsets. The Village’s boat ramp, two bayfront docks, and multiple water access points provide direct access to Sarasota Bay, ideal for boating, fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding. Dine at renowned neighborhood waterfront restaurants like Mar Vista and The Shore, with additional dining, boutique shops, and fitness centers nearby in Whitney Plaza along the scenic bayou. Whether you are looking for a serene retreat, miles of biking trails, a boating paradise, or an active island lifestyle, this property is ready to be customized to your vision. Schedule your showing today and experience the charm of Longbeach Village.
