Home Description

Experience the epitome of Gulf-front living with this breathtaking fifth-floor end-unit residence in the South Tower of Whispering Sands. Offering sweeping panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico and 800 feet of private quartz sand beach, this two-bedroom, two-bath condominium is a rare find. Relax to the sound of gentle waves and seagulls while savoring colorful sunsets from your expansive 25-foot glassed and screened balcony, accessible through two sets of floor-to-ceiling sliders in both the living room and primary bedroom. This meticulously maintained unit is equipped with hurricane-impact sliders (installed in 2014), ensuring safety and comfort. The updated kitchen, open to the living area, is perfect for entertaining, featuring sleek granite countertops, brand new Shaker-style underlit cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a built-in desk area, and a closet pantry. The spacious primary bedroom offers an updated en-suite bath with a luxurious shower, granite vanity, and a generous walk-in closet, complemented by built-in custom drawers. The guest bedroom is versatile and large enough for two queen beds or could be used as a den or home office, with the option to add a sleeper sofa or Murphy bed for dual functionality. Enjoy year-round comfort with a new HVAC system installed in 2018. Situated on the quiet northern end of Siesta Key, this property offers the perfect blend of peace and convenience.
