    Virtually Staged. GREAT PRICE IMPROVEMENT! Welcome to this RARE, 2 bed/2 bath, double lanai corner residence with peaceful lagoon views in the premiere Gulf front property of Whispering Sands! Nestled in the desirable Sunset House building, this freshly painted, updated unit offers a quiet, private setting, with serene views of lush landscaping and the shimmering lagoon with its abundant fish, turtles, and aquatic life. A wonderful entry hall leads into a spacious OPEN CONCEPT floor plan, where the kitchen, living and dining areas flow together to create a wonderful, flexible gathering space. The living space has been extended into what was originally an enclosed 24' x 7' lanai, resulting in the creation of additional valuable interior living space under air, flanked on all sides with floor to ceiling sliders. Sliders open into a private, sunny brick paver patio, perfect for grilling, gardening, or simply relaxing in the surrounding natural beauty. You'll enjoy hosting friends and family in your NEW 2025 kitchen featuring granite countertops, LG stainless appliances, soft-close cabinetry, tile backsplash, breakfast bar, & tray ceiling. The primary and guest bedrooms each include a set of charming French doors that open into the tiled, screened and glassed lanai with direct views into the lagoon. Updated in 2024, both bathrooms include new granite countertops, soft close vanities & fixtures, and recessed lighting. All of the sliders in this unit are Miami Dade hurricane impact rated. 2024 HVAC system. 2025 water heater. Whispering Sands is a 55+ Gulf front community ideally situated just steps to the colorful shops & restaurants of Siesta Key Village offering two heated pools, clubhouse with catering kitchen and fitness rooms currently undergoing complete remodeling, canoe/kayak storage, beachside Tiki Hut & grills, and 800’ of its own beach access on the Gulf! Thoughtfully updated, inviting, and perfectly private, this peaceful corner retreat offers the perfect blend of indoor/outdoor living on beautiful Siesta Key.
