A rarely available 2 bedroom, 2 bath corner condo located on the first level of the charming Essex house in downtown Sarasota is the perfect location for city dwellers and boating enthusiasts alike. There is no elevator needed to arrive home while you?ll be surprised by the complete sense of privacy with no adjacent neighbors. The interiors are bright, airy, and open with floor to ceiling windows in every room. You?ll adore wood laminate flooring throughout, crown molding, and designer lighting. Shop the downtown Saturday Farmer?s Market and bring home your collection of locally grown greens to prepare a healthy dinner from the eat-in kitchen featuring granite countertops, newer appliances, and ample cabinetry. Spend time with friends or loved ones in the living room that overlooks sailboats, azure waters, and 4th of July fireworks. Open the sliding glass doors to the lanai to let your activities spill outside or to simply enjoy the sea breeze. New features include: window treatments with SheerWeave Sun Control Shades, air handler and condenser, and full-size stackable washer/dryer. The Essex House offers incredible amenities from a physical fitness center to saunas, club/party room, craft room, heated pool, outdoor lounge, on-site property manager, and gazebo. Assigned indoor garage parking completes the picture. This is the perfect place to hang your hat within a stone’s throw to theaters, the Sarasota Opera, epicurean dining experiences, shopping, and the majestic beauty of the Sarasota Bayfront.
