Long Beach sits at the historic northern tip of Longboat Key, where the pace slows and the street grid gives way to canals, coves, and Gulf-front lots. This is a low-key corner of the island, close to enclaves like Sleepy Lagoon, Dream Island, and Emerald Harbor, where waterfront access is the whole point and boaters feel right at home.
Right now there are 11 active listings with a median list price of $1,299,000, spanning a wide $665,000 to $6,995,000 range.
