Property Description
GREAT GULF FRONT OPPORTUNITY! This well priced 2 bed/2 bath villa represents an exceptional opportunity to start fresh with almost new construction in the idyllic GULF FRONT property of Whispering Sands on Siesta Key. This lovely unit experienced flooding last fall and is now being sold post remediation and pre rebuild – providing the next owner with the wonderful opportunity to customize it to their own individual style. It has undergone professional remediation, mold, asbestos, and lead inspections, drywall removal and installation, and has been newly painted. New baseboards, interior doors, trim, and remaining flooring have yet to be added back to the villa. This unit features a wonderful galley kitchen with small breakfast bar. The lower kitchen cabinets, appliances, and bathroom vanities & fixtures have been removed. The kitchen and bathroom countertops were able to be saved, are in great shape, and are stored in the villa. The interior includes gleaming crown molding, recessed lighting, and newer ceiling fans. Two sets of beautiful French doors with privacy mini blinds open from the living space. One set opens into a gorgeous sunroom with high windows, vaulted ceiling, sliding windows with screens, and its own A/C system, and the other into a private patio. The primary and guest bedroom windows are covered with plantation shutters. A NEW concrete tile roof is being put on the villa. The garage was reroofed in 2020. One car garage, with a W/D hook up. Whispering Sands is a premiere 55+ condominium complex on the quieter north end of the Key right next to Siesta Key Village, offering 800’ of private beach, two heated pools, onsite manager and maintenance staff, canoe/kayak storage, beachside Tiki Hut, and grills. The clubhouse is in the beginning stages of being completely and beautifully remodeled. Beach restoration and planting are currently underway and will be followed by further improvements throughout the complex. Don’t miss this opportunity!
