About This Property
Looking for a vacation home that also produces income? This one is for you! A charming updated GROUND floor condo featuring 2 rentable bedrooms and 1 bathroom making this the LOWEST priced unit in the Bay Oaks complex. This unit comes completely furnished, allows short term 1 WEEK RENTALS and already has a high rating and excellent cash flow with VRBO #911238. The condo is equipped with a full kitchen and reserved covered parking, a water view from the lanai and is located in beautiful Siesta Key, Florida. This particular unit is located about 30 feet from the intracoastal waterway, so soak up pristine gulf views right from your own lanai! It is also a stone's throw away from the community's heated pool. The unit was refreshed with an updated bathroom, kitchen, lanai tile and added insulation for efficiency and sound dampening. The Bay Oaks community amenities include a heated pool, tennis court, dock on the bay, fishing pier, community barbecue grill, community billiard room, 1 parking space (and access to additional visitor space) and all common area and outdoor maintenance. Internet, water, and trash are also included in the fee. The community is on the Siesta Key trolley line with a stop right out front. Located near the vibrant Sarasota nightlife, upscale shops and dining options, there's always something to explore. Did I mention Siesta Key was named #1 beach in AMERICA and 4th in the WORLD? Its nearly 99% quartz-crystal powdered sand, dubbed the “world’s finest, whitest sand”, never gets hot under the Gulf Coast sun and tropical weather. The 2016 $20 million-dollar renovation added a new playground, two concession stands, more restrooms, a half-mile long esplanade, many shelters and pavilions, and a renovated Sarasota School of Architecture pavilion. With 950 free parking spaces, this venue provides the most parking for any public beach in Sarasota County. You will want to check this out for yourself. Book a week vacation and explore before you buy or book a single showing. Either way, you won't be disappointed.
