This unit has not been for sale in over 45 years. The original owner had the vision of this unit when it was built. It has been in the family ever since it was purchased from the developer. Could it be the breathtaking views that include the East, South and West, maybe the open floor plan or is it the location that makes this a speculator unit. Actually, it's all of that and so much more. Tastefully updated and expanded, this spacious 1636 sq. ft. corner residence on the 14th floor commands sweeping views of Sarasota Bay to downtown, Siesta Key to Big Pass, and out to the Gulf. Enjoy the best of downtown living within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and all that downtown Sarasota has to offer.
