Perched atop the 11th floor, this penthouse residence at Privateer South captures an extraordinary sweep of views spanning Longboat Key Club's lush golf course, the expanse of Sarasota Bay, the downtown skyline, and the Gulf of Mexico's turquoise waves. Offering more than 1,400 square feet, the light-filled interiors flow effortlessly between living, dining, and kitchen spaces, framed by impact windows and glass sliders that open to two private terraces--one Gulf-facing and one Bay-facing--inviting you to enjoy sunrises and sunsets alike. The modernized kitchen balances style and function with quartz countertops, a sleek tile backsplash, shaker cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Porcelain tile flooring adds a timeless touch, enhancing the airy ambiance throughout. The split-bedroom plan ensures privacy when guests visit, with the primary suite offering direct access to the larger terrace, a spacious walk-in closet, and a private en-suite bath, while the guest suite is positioned on the opposite wing with its own serene views. Additional comforts include newer impact-rated windows and sliders, covered parking, and an owner's storage unit located on the same floor. Privateer South, set directly on the Gulf of Mexico, has recently been enhanced with upgrades that further elevate its appeal, including a newer roof, refreshed lobby, and updated common areas. Residents enjoy a lifestyle that blends leisure and convenience, with a beachside heated pool and spa on an expansive deck, tennis, pickleball, and shuffleboard courts, fitness center, fire pit lounge, barbecue area with outdoor seating, social room with catering kitchen, and guest suites for visitors. On-site management and security provide peace of mind in this sought-after community. Beyond the gates, Longboat Key delivers a lifestyle defined by natural beauty and cultural access. Championship golf and fine dining await for members at the Longboat Key Club, while the boutiques and restaurants of St. Armands Circle are minutes away. Downtown Sarasota, with its world-class theaters, museums, galleries, and vibrant waterfront, is an easy drive south. Award-winning beaches, including those of neighboring Lido and Siesta Key, complete the picture, offering endless opportunities to explore, relax, and savor life on the Gulf Coast. This penthouse is more than a residence--it's a front-row seat to the very best of Sarasota living.
