Property Description
GREAT PRICE! Priced to sell, this property represents a GREAT opportunity to own a move-in ready GULF FRONT, BEACH FRONT condominium in one of the most desirable complexes on Siesta Key, Whispering Sands, in the heart of Siesta Key Village. Lovingly cared for by its current owners, this ideally positioned 5th floor, 2 bedroom/2 bath South Tower unit offers unobstructed FULL Gulf views of the shimmering Gulf of Mexico and your own crystal quartz beach at an unbeatable price. This unit is also being offered turnkey furnished minus a few pieces of artwork and accessories, enabling you to move right in and take your time to make it your own. Brand new 2022 HVAC system and 2022 water heater. You'll find ceramic tile flooring placed on the diagonal in the living areas and bedrooms. The galley kitchen includes a nice eat-in breakfast area, stainless appliances including an LG refrigerator, and a built-in microwave. Hurricane impact windows and sliders were added in 2012. Enjoy endless Florida sunsets and dolphin gazing by day from your completely private 25' glassed and screened balcony accessible from both the living room and master bedroom. Repairs and restoration on this balcony were just completed in June 2023 as part of the Whispering Sands concrete restoration project. The front door of this unit will be replaced with a brand new hurricane impact door shortly prior to the completion of the restoration project underway on the east facing walkway. Shared laundry room on the 5th floor serves just 6 units. Assigned covered parking space & plenty of guest parking. Whispering Sands is a premiere 55+ Gulf front community in Siesta Key Village, offering beautifully landscaped grounds, on site management, security, 2 heated pools, clubhouse with catering kitchen & fitness rooms, a Tower Lounge for the exclusive use of tower owners (outside of complex wide social events) with kitchen, TV and billiard table, beachside grills, Tiki hut, shuffleboard, canoe/kayak storage racks, and 800’ of your own private beach on the Gulf of Mexico! Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to own in this wonderful community!
