BEAUTIFULLY RENOVATED DOWNTOWN SARASOTA CONDO WITH BAY VIEWS, IMPACT WINDOWS AND DOORS, AND FULLY FUNDED RESERVES IN 2027-Discover an exceptional opportunity for move-in-ready luxury in the heart of downtown Sarasota at 707 S. Gulfstream Avenue. Ideally located just moments from Sarasota Bay, Marina Jack, Bayfront Park, Main Street, Palm Avenue, and downtown's celebrated dining, shopping, and cultural attractions, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom, two-bath corner residence delivers an outstanding combination of location, quality, comfort, and financial peace of mind. One of the property's most compelling advantages is the financial stability of the condominium association, with reserves scheduled to be fully funded in 2027. In today's condominium market, particularly among established buildings, financial health and reserve funding are increasingly important considerations. This commitment to long-term financial planning provides an important distinction for buyers seeking confidence in their condominium investment. Thoughtfully positioned to capture beautiful partial views of Sarasota Bay, the residence enjoys abundant natural light without the intense afternoon heat and direct western sun exposure often associated with waterfront condominiums. This desirable orientation creates a comfortable, light-filled living environment while allowing residents to enjoy the coastal scenery. Extensively renovated with sophisticated finishes and meticulous attention to detail, this residence offers an effortless, turnkey lifestyle without the expense, inconvenience, or uncertainty of undertaking a major renovation. Significant improvements include updated plumbing and electrical systems, along with hurricane-impact-resistant windows and doors, providing enhanced storm protection, efficiency, and peace of mind. These valuable upgrades distinguish the residence from many older downtown Sarasota condominiums and complement its beautifully updated interiors. The open-concept floor plan features elegant contemporary finishes throughout, while an oversized gourmet kitchen anchors the living space with quartz countertops, premium appliances, custom cabinetry, and generous room for entertaining. The spacious primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with a beautifully remodeled, spa-inspired bathroom. The building has also recently upgraded its generator following the 2024 storms, adding another valuable improvement. Residents enjoy secure entry, covered parking, a resort-style swimming pool, fitness center, and club room. Whether searching for a primary residence, seasonal getaway, or lock-and-leave condominium in downtown Sarasota, this exceptional corner residence offers a rare combination of partial Sarasota Bay views, desirable sun exposure, updated plumbing and electrical systems, hurricane-impact windows and doors, extensive renovations, and a financially stable condominium association with reserves scheduled to be fully funded in 2027. Why take on the time, expense, and uncertainty of renovating when you can enjoy the Sarasota lifestyle from day one?
