This bright and cheery Cedars East 1440sf 2/2/1 townhouse is currently the best value (aka- lowest price per square foot) of any condo on Longboat Key, which makes it a SLAM-DUNK (aka- astute) purchase available for an investor and/or resident. The rental potential is excellent (26 x min 2wks). When you take in the high ceilings (9ft LR/DR); the oversized (13x30) one-car garage; the updated Hardi-plank siding and windows; turnkey-furnishings with brand new carpeting on the stairs and in the bedrooms (living area is ceramic tile); an upstairs laundry room... you'll get it! When you realize this is an end-unit with open views from three sides, offering tremendous amenities (HarTru tennis courts, Jr Olympic pool, 24/7 fitness center, walking trails, fishing dock, even a beach-on-the-bay at low tide), and is pet-friendly (allows two dogs)... you'll smile to yourself! Need more? You are across the street from LBK's glorious ten-mile sandy beach on the Gulf of Mexico and we have great restaurants to boot. Nearby St Armand's Circle and downtown Sarasota are close enough to tempt you. Longboat Key is the WOW FACTOR in greater Sarasota's real estate market, which brings us back to your search for paradise. Did I mention that this particular townhouse is the BEST VALUE/SQFT of any residential property on Longboat Key? Stop by ASAP... get excited!
