Property Description
Step inside and the open-concept floor plan draws you through a living and dining space that has been thoughtfully renewed from top to bottom. Clean tile floors run throughout, stone counters anchor the kitchen, and soft recessed lighting gives every room a warmth that feels considered rather than accidental. A north-facing Florida room extends the living space to the rear of the home, offering the kind of soft, steady light that makes it genuinely useful year-round without the heat of direct sun, fitted with motorized window treatments and its own independent climate system.
Outside, Whispering Sands delivers the kind of setting that earns its reputation. Twenty-five acres of impeccably maintained grounds frame a natural lagoon on one side and the Gulf of Mexico on the other. Two heated pools, two clubhouses, a fitness room, a library, shuffleboard, a Tiki Hut, and shaded BBQ and picnic areas give daily life here a texture that most coastal communities simply cannot match. An active social committee keeps the calendar full, and 24-hour fob-secured access ensures the peace and privacy you came here for is genuinely protected.
Not only is the beach a short walk from your front door, but Siesta Key Village, with its dining, boutiques, and unhurried pace, sits directly across the street waiting for you to explore. When Sarasota calls, the Ringling Museum, the Van Wezel Performing Arts Center, the Asolo Theater, the Selby Botanical Gardens, and St. Armands Circle are all just minutes across the bridge.
Truly turnkey, the lease includes cable, internet, water, sewer, trash, and lawn and landscape maintenance, with a 2022 HVAC system, a fully inspected electrical system, and an attached garage with a full-size washer and dryer already in place. The villa was professionally restored following minor storm-related water intrusion, with complete mold remediation, selective drywall replacement, and a fresh coat of paint throughout. The furnishings are set, the appliances are ready, and everything else has already been taken care of. This is Siesta Key living at its most complete.
This property is also available for purchase. See MLS #A4670303.
