Beauty and the Beach! Minutes from St. Armand's Circle, this rarely available, southwest corner unit with magnificent direct gulf views and private beach access has just been reduced more than $15,000 and is priced to sell. This condo has been completely updated with all new interior doors, molding, new wood kitchen cabinets, updated appliances, raised ceiling, and solid surface counters. The very comfortable open floor plan, with bedrooms separate from the living area is among the largest configurations in this building, and lives much larger than the actual square footage. All windows and sliders have been updated to high-wiind rated glass. Both bedrooms have walk-in closets and ceiling fans. The Master B/R has a second, locking walk-in closet, and has been remodeled to allow breathtaking full gulf and sunset views. The unique center bathroom allows for maximum use of space and includes a pocket door and deep, recessed storage behind a mirrored wall. The 16x8 balcony is open and holds unbelievable views. The 5th floor is a perfect height to not only enjoy the full view, but also to experience the sounds of the Gulf of Mexico. A furniture package, including sofa, sleeper-sofa, beds, linens, and kitchenware is negotiable, as well. The building is very well maintained and features a beachside heated pool and Jacuzzi, private beach access, exercise room, building fire sprinklers and generator, meeting room with kitchen, and WiFi available in the lobby. Come see! The beach is calling!
