About This Property

TURNKEY SARASOTA SHORT-TERM RENTAL OPPORTUNITY IN AN EXCEPTIONAL LOCATION! Already operating as an Airbnb, this well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath property presents an excellent opportunity for investors looking to own an income-producing property in one of Sarasota's most desirable locations. With an established short-term rental setup and a location that consistently attracts visitors, this property offers the potential to continue as a vacation rental, second home, or long-term investment. The location is a major part of the appeal. Situated within easy reach of Siesta Key Beach, Downtown Sarasota, Southside Village, Arlington Park, The Ringling Museum, and Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, the property puts guests close to Sarasota's beaches, dining, shopping, entertainment, and cultural attractions. It's the type of location that makes a strong base for visitors wanting to experience the best of the Gulf Coast. Originally built in 1958, the home has been thoughtfully updated while retaining its original character. The interior features a renovated kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, along with an updated bathroom and comfortable living spaces designed for easy guest stays. Recent improvements add to the property's appeal and reduce near-term capital concerns, including a metal roof installed in December 2022, 2016 electrical panel upgrade, approximately three-year-old AC system with a 10-year warranty, and a water heater replaced approximately one year ago. Impact-rated doors and hurricane fabric window screens provide additional storm protection, while the well and septic systems are regularly maintained. For investors, the combination of an existing short-term rental operation, desirable Sarasota location, established improvements, and proximity to major Gulf Coast attractions makes this a property worth a closer look. Whether you're looking to expand your investment portfolio, acquire an established vacation rental, or secure a Sarasota property with multiple potential uses, this opportunity offers flexibility in one of the area's most sought-after locations. Buyer to independently verify all applicable short-term rental regulations, licensing requirements, HOA restrictions, and financial performance.
