Have you dreamed of the perfect island getaway situated right on a gorgeous stretch of beach on Longboat Key? And could you even imagine you could have it for $615,000?! With one owner for the last 29 years, this is your unique opportunity to purchase this fully renovated beachfront walkout 1 bedroom, 1 bath condo in the beach to bay island community of Covert II - and hang onto it like these owners have! With this fabulous ground floor location, you can have your toes in the sand in only a few steps! This condo offers Italian porcelain tile throughout and a completely new kitchen with beautiful counter tops, all new cabinets and new appliances. The bathroom has been beautifully updated as well and features custom tile work in a seaside theme. The view is fabulous in either direction with the sparkling pool out front and the gorgeous Gulf of Mexico out back. The open living and dining area allows plenty of space to entertain or to quietly contemplate whether it’s a beach day, a day for a soak in the pool or a walk to the Covert bayside fishing pier. The bedroom offers the same stunning beach view and features sliders to the screened in lanai. The midkey location allows for easy access to multiple restaurants and shopping. The tree filled mangrove trails of Joan Durante Park are a birders’ paradise and the 12 mile long bike path give you many options to soak in the sun while getting in your daily exercise. This is island living at its best at a price you may never thought you could find!
