About 147 Whispering Sands Dr Unit V29

GREAT OPPORTUNITY! This lovely 2 bed/2 bath villa in the premiere Gulf front property of Whispering Sands experienced flooding during Hurricane Helene and is now being sold post remediation and pre rebuild – providing the next owner with the wonderful opportunity to customize it to their own individual style. It has undergone professional remediation, mold, asbestos, and lead inspections, drywall removal and installation, and has been newly painted. New baseboards, interior doors, trim, and remaining flooring have yet to be added back to the villa. This unit features a wonderful open galley kitchen with small breakfast bar. The lower kitchen cabinets, appliances, and bathroom vanities & fixtures have been removed. The kitchen and bathroom granite countertops were able to be saved, are in great shape, and are stored in the villa. The interior includes gleaming crown molding, recessed lighting, and newer ceiling fans. Two sets of beautiful French doors with privacy mini blinds open from the living space. One set opens into a gorgeous sunroom with high windows, vaulted ceiling, sliding windows with screens, and its own HVAC system, and the other into a separate, private open air patio. The primary and guest bedrooms windows are covered with plantation shutters. The owner is having a brand NEW concrete tile roof put on the villa by the end of April. The garage roof was reroofed in 2020. One car garage, with a washer and dryer hook up. Beautiful brick paver driveway. This well priced villa represents an exceptional opportunity to start fresh with almost new construction in one of the most idyllic Gulf front properties on Siesta Key. Whispering Sands is a 55+ condominium complex on the quieter north end of the Key right next to Siesta Key Village, offering 800’ of private beach, two heated pools, onsite manager and maintenance staff, canoe/kayak storage, beachside Tiki Hut, and security. The clubhouse is in the beginning stages of being completely and beautifully remodeled. Beach restoration and planting is currently underway and will be followed by further improvements throughout the complex. Don't miss this opportunity!
