Longboat Shores Homes For Sale | Longboat Key, FL

Longboat Shores Community Guide

Longboat Shores, built 1956-2023 in Longboat Key, features fishing access among its 52 homes.

Longboat Shores Real Estate in Longboat Key, FL

Longboat Shores homes for sale make up a tucked-away community of 52 single-level homes on Longboat Key, most dating back to 1956 and carrying that Old Florida charm even after updates over the years. Newer homes sit in the same wooded setting, shaded by oak and palm trees where eagles, cranes, herons, and egrets are a regular sight. The neighborhood isn’t gated, and while there’s an annual HOA fee with deed restrictions, dues stay reasonable.

Many homes sit on a canal with seawalls and private boat docks, giving you deep-water access out to Sarasota Bay, the Intracoastal, and the Gulf. If your lot isn’t waterfront, the community still offers a boat launch and kayak storage for a small fee. Views run down Buttonwood Harbour and Cranes Bayou, making this a genuinely waterfront lifestyle whether or not your own dock touches the canal. Confirm pet and leasing rules directly, since specifics weren’t available for this one.
