About This Home

As of January 2021

One of the prettiest villas you will ever see! This beautifully updated unit in the amenity rich, GULF FRONT property of Whispering Sands combines the ease of one level living with the perfect Florida lifestyle - in the best location on Siesta Key. Just around the corner from the great boutiques & restaurants in Siesta Key Village, this villa is also just steps from your own PRIVATE BEACH on the sparkling Gulf of Mexico! This pristine unit features wood floors, crown molding, plantation shutters, and hurricane impact windows and doors. A set of French doors opening from the dining room lead into the centerpiece of this villa - a gorgeous, 9’ x 10’ glassed and screened sunroom, with walls of windows, wood floors, vaulted ceiling, and even its own separate A/C system. The sunroom is flanked on either side by two nice sized brick paver patios, surrounded by lush landscaping for enhanced privacy. The French doors opening into the sunroom and patio, as well as the villa’s front door, also have pocket screened doors, enabling plenty of cross breezes year round. You’ll entertain with ease in your updated, open concept kitchen which features a large breakfast bar, granite countertops, recently new Kenmore stainless appliances, & beautiful recessed lighting. A new roof was put on the newly painted garage in September 2020 along with new bearings, cable and chain. Full sized W/D is included. Selected furniture negotiable. Whispering Sands is a beautiful 55+ Gulf front community with 800’ of its own private beach on the Gulf of Mexico. Amenities include 2 lighted, heated pools, 2 clubhouses w/catering kitchens & large screen TVs, 2 fitness rooms, beachside canoe/kayak storage racks, shuffleboard, grills, & a Tiki Hut. Don’t let this beauty get away!
