Buttonwood Cove Condos For Sale | Longboat Key, FL

Buttonwood Cove Community Guide

Buttonwood Cove, built 1979-1980 in Longboat Key: private boat slips.

Buttonwood Cove Condominiums in Longboat Key, FL.

Buttonwood Cove condos for sale sit along Gulf of Mexico Drive on Longboat Key, between addresses 3500 and 3660, in a quiet community of 56 residences spread across four low-rise buildings built in 1980. Floor plans range from 1,250 to 2,500 square feet with two and three bedroom options, each flowing out to an enclosed lanai that frames the view depending on which direction you face. West-facing lanais look directly out to the Gulf, capturing the sparkling water and the kind of sunsets that make Longboat Key living worth every penny. East-facing units greet the morning with views of Buttonwood Harbor and the sunrise, a quieter but equally rewarding orientation.

The amenities here cover both the active and the leisurely. Community and private boat docks, a fishing pier, and a kayak launch put the water within arm’s reach for residents who want to use it. A renovated clubhouse with a catering kitchen, BBQ and picnic area, community pool, spa and hot tub, and tennis and pickleball courts handle the social and recreational side of things. Elevators and private garages below the buildings add everyday convenience that low-rise communities do not always offer. For buyers looking for a well-rounded Longboat Key address with direct water access and a strong amenity package, Buttonwood Cove is a community worth serious consideration.

Additional Buttonwood Cove Condo Information

Since the neighborhood is mid-key and on the narrowest part of the coastline there is only approximately 700 feet separating the Gulf and the Bay. Situated on beautifully maintained grounds the complex has 33 boat slips on the Bay and access to 500 feet of private beach across the street. The beach has a shelter with picnic tables and chairs. Pets are allowed but has size restrictions per guidelines. The HOA fees are billed quarterly. Leasing is based on a minimum of 1 month, 3 times a year.

For a fun time and casual dining, tie up your boat at local boater-friendly restaurants. Residents enjoy spending hours watching dolphins and tropical birds, with boats cruising on the water or just lounging the day away. Locally are the Centre Shops and Shoppes of Bay Isles with a Publix Supermarket and pharmacy. It is a short trip to Sarasota for touring galleries, museums and theater performances. Plan an afternoon at St. Armandโ€™s Circle for shopping boutiques, specialty shops and outside dining.

Buttonwood Cove condos are the perfect community for paradise living.
