5400 Ocean Blvd Unit 1-03, Sarasota, FL 34242

Enjoy the beautiful expansive views of the Gulf and beach from this 3BR/2.5 bath condo that has been in the same family for 43 years. Located on the 10th floor in one of the best designed and built condos on Siesta Key. The modernist building was designed by architect Frank Folsom Smith, and was ahead of its time. Built with poured concrete and with walls of sliding glass doors in every room to take advantage of the breathtaking views and sunsets of its ideal location on the Southern end of Siesta Village. This unit was remodeled in 2023 with luxury vinyl flooring throughout. Kitchen was opened up to the living/dining areas for a free-flowing floor plan perfect for casual living and entertaining at the beach. The upper kitchen cabinets and breakfast bar are made of monkey pod, an exotic hardwood suitable for tropical climates. Counters are half inch thick porcelain. Soft closing drawers, a pantry, black Kohler sink and wine cooler make entertaining in this sun filled kitchen more enjoyable. The large living space has two walls of glass sliders leading out to open porches with incredible views of the Gulf and beach. The Primary bedroom is off the living area and has views of the Gulf, beach, Siesta Village, Lido, and downtown Sarasota. Monkey pod wood was used in all three bathrooms along with quartz counters. The other two bedrooms are in another wing with windowed walls of sliders with just as impressive of views so no overnight guest gets left out. This 17 story structure weathered the recent storms well and is a testament to how well it was designed and built, and the care of the owners over the years. The Terrace is located at the South end of Siesta Village for easy walkability to Morton's Market, shopping and restaurants.
