This is currently the most affordable 1/1 unit in Park View, a great, gated, complex, very close to Downtown Sarasota, and about 10 minutes West of the interstate. As far as the list price per SqFt is concerned: at $228, this is currently the cheapest 1/1 condo in Sarasota! The 2-story buildings of Park View are positioned in a square, with parking on the outside (see aerial). The inside of this square forms a 3+-acre park, featuring beautiful tropical landscaping, a clubhouse with 2 pools, and a fitness center. Since no. 2 is on the second floor, both the living room and the bedroom have beautiful views of the park. The living room has a 13’ X 7’ screened balcony. The kitchen features granite counter tops and a pass-through opening to the dining area. There is a closet with a stackable washer and dryer, a closet next to the front door, and 2 closets in the bedroom. For those new to Sarasota: this is a gem of a small town, situated south of Tampa on the Gulf of Mexico. There are miles of beautiful beaches (Siesta Beach is the best-known), while Downtown has great restaurants, an opera, theaters, museums, a symphony orchestra, a performance center (the Van Wezel), you name it. If you like to walk, bike, or run: the Ringling Bridge, connecting Downtown with Lido Key (St. Armands Circle), is a very popular destination, as is the ca. 18-mile Legacy Trail, which connects Downtown Sarasota with the old Venice Train Station. It goes without saying that our coast is a paradise for fishermen/women, boaters, beach bums, you name it. This condo is a great investment either for those who want a small, affordable place to live, or for an investor. Make your appointment today!
