SELLER FINANCING AVAILABLE! Welcome to a rare opportunity to own an updated villa-style 2-bedroom condo just over a mile from downtown Sarasota at a price point that’s becoming increasingly hard to find. This property can be rented immediately, making it an investor friendly option. This light and bright, newly renovated home features vaulted ceilings, fresh paint throughout, brand-new flooring, in unit washer/dryer and an updated kitchen with new cabinetry, new range, refrigerator and a 2025 roof! The open, airy feel is enhanced by natural light and thoughtful updates that make the space feel clean, modern, and move-in ready. What truly sets this home apart are the two private, fully fenced outdoor spaces—a front courtyard and a rear porch, both with new decking. This indoor-outdoor layout offers rare privacy for a condo and is perfect for entertaining or creating a personal outdoor retreat. Condo fee of $450 includes trash, water, sewer, community pool, lawn and exterior maintenance. Located just minutes from downtown Sarasota’s dining, arts, and waterfront, this home delivers walkable proximity and unbeatable convenience without the downtown price tag. Whether you’re looking for a low-maintenance Florida getaway or a full-time residence close to the action, this property offers exceptional value and lifestyle appeal.
