NEWLY PRESENTED & FULLY FURNISHED. Some homes invite you to exhale the moment you arrive. This is one of them. Nestled within the award-winning Conrad Beach community on Longboat Key - ideally positioned west of Gulf of Mexico Drive - this elevated coastal residence is offered fully furnished as a true Gulf Coast retreat. Set within an intimate enclave of architect-designed homes, it delivers a rare combination of privacy, tranquility, and timeless coastal character that grows harder to find with each passing season. Designed for effortless island living, the home pairs classic coastal architecture with resort-inspired interiors and a relaxed elegance that feels both welcoming and refined. Mornings begin with coffee on the porch as tropical landscaping sways in the Gulf breeze. Evenings unfold on the upper west-facing deck as golden light dissolves into the water. Thoughtfully designed landscape lighting transforms the grounds after dark, making every night feel like an occasion. Inside, freshly refreshed interiors are curated for comfort, connection, and easy entertaining. The gourmet kitchen anchors the home around an oversized quartz island where guests naturally gather. Open-concept living spaces flow seamlessly outdoors, while a spacious lanai extends the entertaining footprint - with flexibility for future enclosure if desired. The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful escape with its own private balcony overlooking lush tropical surroundings. Upstairs, guest bedrooms and a loft-style family room accommodate visitors with ease - equally suited to seasonal stays, remote work, or multi-generational living. A two-car garage supports a true lock-and-leave lifestyle, while Firehouse Court's no street parking policy preserves the quiet, residential character of the neighborhood. Community amenities include a resort-style pool, entertaining areas, bath facilities, and observation spaces - all maintained through remarkably low HOA fees that cover lawn care, landscaping, irrigation, and common area upkeep. For peace of mind, the home is equipped with high-impact windows and doors, a whole-house fire sprinkler system, and a full-house generator. For buyers seeking relief from crowded beaches and hurried routines, the contrast is immediate - life here is open, unhurried, and ready to enjoy from day one. Just over the bridge, Anna Maria Island offers waterfront dining, boutique shopping, and the kind of authentic Old Florida charm that keeps everyone coming back. Minutes from the pristine beaches of Longboat Key's coveted north end, this is more than a home. It's where lasting memories are made, priorities reset, and a life you've been waiting to live finally begins.
