One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Unique opportunity to renovate (or build) in Emerald Harbor - one of Longboat Key's most sought-after neighborhoods; one of the few single family home communities that includes private beach access. Located on the widest canal on the Key (150ft), this 155ft x 100ft lot offers limitless possibilities. The existing structure was flooded during hurricane Helene, but has been professionally remediated and is ready for renovation. The 2,586ft 4BR home has an open floor plan, large pool/outdoor entertainment area and oversized garage. Call to arrange showing.
