Property Description
From its elevated eighth-floor setting at Crystal Sands, this turnkey-furnished residence captures an extraordinary panorama of the Gulf of Mexico and Siesta Key’s renowned white-sand shoreline. Completely renovated in 2022, this two-bedroom beachfront retreat pairs sophisticated coastal interiors with an expansive screened Gulf-front terrace, storm-rated windows and sliding glass doors, and an impressive rental history—all within one of Siesta Key’s most recognizable beachfront communities. Beyond its appeal as a personal beachfront escape, #809 offers an established rental history. The residence averages more than $80,000 in annual gross rental income (2024 – 2026), with bookings extending through year-end, offering a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking to combine personal enjoyment with income potential. Inside, the 1,271-square-foot residence has been thoughtfully reimagined with a fresh coastal aesthetic, luxury vinyl wood-plank flooring throughout, custom architectural ceiling treatments, and an open floor plan that keeps the Gulf firmly in view. The designer kitchen is both polished and functional, featuring granite countertops, custom Shaker-style cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a refrigerator cleverly concealed behind coordinating custom cabinet panels. The kitchen opens naturally to the dining area, where a built-in banquette creates an inviting gathering space beneath a dramatic coffered ceiling accented by designer lighting and naturally stained solid-wood beams. Beyond, the Gulf-front living room is framed by walls of glass, drawing your eye directly toward the water and opening to the screened terrace. The terrace is where the Siesta Key lifestyle truly takes center stage. Stretching across the Gulf-facing side of the residence, this generous outdoor living space provides a front-row seat to turquoise water, passing boats, and spectacular Gulf sunsets. A desirable split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy for owners and guests, with both bedrooms positioned to enjoy Gulf views and direct access to the screened terrace. Each bedroom also features a walk-in closet with built-in organization. The primary suite is complemented by a beautifully renovated en-suite bath with dual sinks, granite countertops, extensive built-in linen storage, and an oversized walk-in shower with bench seating. The second bath is also well appointed with newer cabinetry, stone counters and a tub/shower combination. Crystal Sands is an iconic Siesta Key beachfront community distinguished by its classic architectural presence and exceptional location directly on the Gulf of Mexico. Residents and guests enjoy a heated community pool, gated entry, elevators, recreation facilities, covered and guest parking, and direct access to the beach and Gulf. The residence also includes one covered carport space. And when you are ready to venture beyond the beach, some of Siesta Key’s favorite destinations are close at hand. Head north to Siesta Key Village for its lively collection of restaurants, boutiques, cafés, and nightlife, or south toward Crescent Beach, Point of Rocks, and the restaurants and conveniences surrounding Stickney Point Road. The Siesta Key trolley makes exploring the island especially easy, with service along the Key connecting beaches, dining, shopping, and Siesta Key Village.
