 Take it extra slow and talk out how much you mean to each other before adding that extra dimension to the relationship.
Because if you have been friends, successfully, for so long that is a good basis for a long term relationship. And liking and respecting each other is certainly very important. But if you rush it then it will be hard to come back from that.
There is nothing wrong with taking it slow and sure towards what you both may well find is the best thing that ever happened to both of you. It worked for me.
Best wishes for a lovely future (together)

 I'm interested in the answers you get here as I have a potentially similar issue. My heart says if you're both interested then why not? I'd take it ridiculously slow, just to really feel it out. But if you really care for each other and are seriously ready for this committment, then the friendship you have already is an excellent base.
