Downtown Sarasota 1BR Condo at the corner of Ringling Blvd. and Shade Ave. These were designed Ruth Richmond and showcase her excellent use of space and feel much larger than their footprint. Plus her touch of charm with the arches over the sliders and walk in closets. This affordable 1BR/1BA 2nd floor condo is updated and ready for you with recently updated Luxury Vinyl plank flooring in the living room and bedroom, hurricane windows, and a top to bottom fresh paint job. The original sliders to narrow patio let loads of light into these north facing buildings and you can let your cat or small dog (2 pets allowed) enjoy a little fresh air or have some potted plants. Being on the second floor you'll have a nice view of trees from your couch and not cars or the street, as well as not having anyone above you. This prime location is just 0.1 of a mile to Payne Park, Legacy Trail, Disc Golf, Cafe', Tennis, etc. and nearby restaurants, Shamrock Pub, plus all that downtown Sarasota and the bay offers right within a 1 mile. You'll hardly ever need your car again. This is the one you've been waiting for, snooze and you'll loose OR run to your fun in the sun and get this deal done! (no extra charge for the Beachy rhymes)
