The natural beauty of Longboat Key manages to attract some of the most creative and refined real estate developers to build signature residential structures. Such is the case of En Provence, a magnificent condominium tower community that features some of the best architectural design in Florida. The attractive design of En Provence provides an elegant sense of balance between nature’s perfection and humankind’s attempt to complement it.

While En Provence was completed in the 21st century, the architectural design pays homage to the Mediterranean style that was widely adopted in Southwest Florida in the 20th century. En Provence also features touches of French and Nouveau Florida home design, with a slight deference to Miami Beach represented with a carefully mixed palette of earthy and pastel colors. There are just 21 households carefully arranged in three buildings stacked fours stories high.

The floor plans of En Provence are as exquisite as the beachfront courtyards and lush vegetation surrounding the residences. Each home is extremely well-appointed with expansive living areas starting at 3,400 square feet for three bedrooms, or four bedrooms and four bathrooms on 6,000 square feet. The interior designs are lavish and rich with details such as bathrooms with spas and hydro massage systems, dual sinks, kitchen islands, balconies with sun decks and outdoor grills, and much more. Some of the best ocean views on the island are reserved for En Provence, and the prices range from $2.8M to $3.7M. Amenities include a community pool and spa, guard gate, entertaining area and fitness room.

En Provence is very close to Avenue of the Flowers, Longboat Key’s premier shopping plaza. Avenue of the Flowers is the home of a prototype Publix supermarket that focuses on organic and gourmet produce and groceries, similar to Whole Foods. For a more upscale shopping and dining experience, the unique St. Armands Circle is just a short drive away.
