Description of Property

INVESTOR ALERT - Lowest priced POOL & WATERFRONT home on Siesta Key. Close to nightlife but far enough away at the same time. No waiting on pool, roof or hurricane impact window permits, materials and contractors...they are already in place. Add the final components and choose your personal finishing touches and have ready to rent during Peak Season. The new metal roof was installed in 2021. Navien tankless water heater and Halo Five Stage Whole House Water Filtration & Conditioning System were added in 2017. In 2018 Impact Resistant and Energy Efficient windows, entry and patio doors were installed, which all have a lifetime warranty. An HVAC was system replaced in 2017 and new compressor in Sept. 2021. A disposal that can grind up almost anything was added in 2017. The LG Steam and Energy Efficient washer/dryer were added in Winter 2019. The charming exterior and back porch received a fresh coat of coastal paint color in Fall 2020 and much of the interior painted in neutral colors in 2021. Large gravel was added to the front yard and small shell to the back yard in 2020 to keep landscape upkeep at a minimum; however it also has a Sprinkler System which is currently not in use. The original terrazzo floors were restored and new water resistant vinyl tile added to remaining rooms in Summer 2021, making cleaning a breeze. This old Florida ranch home is perfect for those who do not do steps. Nature lovers, paddle boarders, kyakkers and those who enjoy fishing will appreciate the property's proximity, which is on the widest part of the 47-acre private Lagoon. Heron Lagoon lies within the Little Sarasota Bay Watershed and is home to many types of herons, woodpeckers, egrets and owls, ospry, hawks, otters, tortoise, armadillo, sea slugs and more. You will see Mullet fish fly through the air on almost a daily basis. Enjoy Siesta Key Sunsets right from your screened in porch (replaced in 2017) or sitting by the pool, which has a 2020 Jandy VS FloPro variable speed pump. The placid water and proximity to the Inter-coastal and Gulf of Mexico makes for outstanding photo opportunities and bird watching, rain or shine. Aside from the obvious items needed, you could add a TIKI Bar, electric bikes or a golf cart to get the most dollar out of your Key rental. Boaters could park their boat at the nearby Marina or park their small boat in the driveway, as there is no HOA in Ocean View. Ocean View is 7 miles from downtown and I-75. Turtle Beach is just one mile down Midnight Pass Road. Or, catch the daily free trolley down to one of the 12 beach access points or to Siesta Key Public Beach, and Siesta Key Village for dining, shopping and nightlife. It will stop right in front of the house. You could save on renting a car as most everything you would want is right on the Key. Recoup your investment for several years then tear down and build a new home that could sell for millions and provide a nice retirement. When using as an investment property, don't forget to block out a couple of weeks for owners use during the year to enjoy this beautiful lifestyle for yourself.
