1050 Longboat Clb Rd

Privateer North is a low-rise, resort-style condominium completed in 1974 and rising ten stories on southern Longboat Key behind the gates of the Longboat Key Club. The building is composed primarily of two-bedroom floorplans arranged to maximize Gulf and bay sightlines; many residences feature open living/dining layouts, eat-in kitchens, high ceilings, tray ceilings, crown molding and ample built-in storage. Exterior character is defined by private balconies facing the water, sliding glass doors with hurricane protection, outdoor showers and a landscaped beach-side setting with direct sandy access. Shared facilities emphasize active, coastal living: heated swimming pool and spa, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center with sauna, a gathering lounge and barbecue area, bike storage, covered carports and on-site management. Common-area upgrades in recent years include refreshed lobby, hallways and social rooms; the property also maintains exterior irrigation, lighting, storage lockers and private mailboxes. The building’s location places residents within the guarded Longboat Key Club community, steps from nine miles of beach, with easy drives to St. Armands Circle, restaurants, grocery stores and cultural amenities in nearby Sarasota.
