Recently updated with a new roof in August and no assessments! Prime location! Welcome to Sunland Garden Apartments, a charming 55+ condo community nestled behind The Crossings at Siesta Key Mall, which is currently undergoing redevelopment into a vibrant mixed-use development featuring retail shops, restaurants, and offices. Notably, Connors Steak & Seafood and Cinebistro are expected to remain! Ideally situated in central Sarasota, just a short drive to our stunning beaches. This third-floor unit offers two bedrooms with en-suite baths, walk-in closets, and the largest screened porch in the community equipped with hurricane roll shutters. Enjoy peaceful courtyard views, along with access to the community pool, BBQ area, and shuffleboard court. Being on the top floor means there are no neighbors above. Both bedrooms and the living room have sliding glass door access to the spacious, covered porch. The unit features a new front storm door, replaced A/C and hot water heater (both in 2019) with biannual maintenance, and a brand-new garbage disposal. The laundry room and a large storage cage are just steps from your front door, near the elevator and stairs for easy access. Your assigned parking spot and adjacent guest parking are conveniently located right in front of the unit. Enjoy proximity to Sarasota's vibrant downtown scene, less than 3 miles away, with numerous entertainment venues, dining, theaters, and art galleries. Numerous parks and golf courses are also just minutes from the community. This property is perfect as a part-time escape or full-time residence!
