Property Description
Spanning more than 2,100 square feet, this stunning four-bedroom, three-bath home has been thoughtfully transformed with uncompromising attention to detail. Every major component has been replaced following the recent storms with fully permitted improvements, including a new roof, hurricane-impact windows, all-new electrical, new HVAC systems, and beautifully updated appliances. Immaculately maintained and completely move-in ready, the home offers the confidence and peace of mind that only a comprehensive renovation can provide.
Inside, light-filled living spaces flow effortlessly with timeless tile flooring throughout, creating a sophisticated yet relaxed coastal aesthetic. Every room has been designed for both comfort and effortless entertaining, making the home equally suited for everyday living or unforgettable island getaways.
Beyond the interiors lies one of the property's most extraordinary features—its expansive DOUBLE LOT. A rarity on Longboat Key, this oversized homesite offers exceptional flexibility with room to expand, build upward, or create the custom outdoor oasis you've always envisioned, all while enjoying the privacy of having no rear neighbors thanks to the lush natural preserve.
Perfectly positioned between the Gulf of Mexico and intercoastal water ways, you're just a short stroll to the pristine beaches on the west side of the island and the Intracoastal Waterway to the east. Enjoy morning walks to the beach, afternoons on the water, and evenings dining at nearby neighborhood restaurants just moments from your front door. World-class destinations including St. Armands Circle, the iconic The St. Regis Longboat Key Resort, and The Shore Longboat Key are only minutes away, placing the very best of Longboat Key's celebrated lifestyle within effortless reach.
Equally appealing as a private coastal sanctuary or a high-performing investment, the property has an established vacation rental history with upcoming reservations already in place, allowing the next owner to begin generating income immediately. The seller is also open to negotiating the home fully furnished, creating an exceptional turnkey opportunity.
Properties offering this level of quality, location, and future potential are increasingly rare. With its coveted address, remarkable DOUBLE LOT, comprehensive renovations, and timeless coastal appeal, 608 St. Jude Drive is more than a home—it's an opportunity to own one of Longboat Key's most exceptional island retreats.
