About this home
"One Chance! One Corner-End Condo! One Dream! Don’t Let It Slip Away!” This residence is now available for public and private showings. Restricted access resulted in only three private showings in six months. Buyer's have a rare chance to discover a home that’s been under the radar. (Do not let the days on the market fool you. Snowbirds were unable to view this listing the entire "season"). The only coveted South Marina corner/end unit currently on the market at Windward Bay—these special residences are truly prized. End units are usually the first to sell, and for good reason: they offer approximately 250 additional square feet of living space, flooding your home with light and delivering a bright, inviting atmosphere you’ll love. This second-floor location is equally exceptional—it’s the only level where you can enjoy continuous flooring throughout, creating a sleek and modern look. No one below means more freedom, more fun, and more style. Truly extraordinary, this special end unit offers a front-row seat to nature’s most enchanting show. Picture dolphins leaping in the sparkling waters and gentle manatees gliding just below your window—the very reason the current owners fell in love with this home. From breathtaking sunrises to moonlit reflections shimmering across Sarasota Bay, every moment feels like a postcard come to life. Step inside and feel the difference! Where luxury meets comfort with a complete remodel featuring a stunning Thomasville kitchen, sleek new floors, and beautifully updated bathrooms (2022). Enjoy modern conveniences like a Midea refrigerator, remote-control blinds (2025), and most importantly peace of mind with automatic hurricane shutters in the Living and Florida Rooms.
