About this home
250 SANDS POINT ROAD UNIT 5101
A corner A+ junior suite with a walk-down rarely becomes available. It offers quiet and private golf course views and was completely renovated, with the added benefit of being in the hotel program. A separate bedroom from the living room, with a pullout sofa, offers more flexible sleeping arrangements. The living room and bedroom open directly to your private balcony, with stairs leading to the additional open patio area, which is the advantage of the walk-down. There is also added luxury of in-unit laundry. The primary en-suite bath has double sinks and a full shower, with private access for your guests. There is also plenty of closet space. The resort at Inn on the Beach offers a variety of dining experiences, including a pool, a fitness center, a full-service spa, championship golf, tennis and more. Conveniently on southern Longboat Key, just minutes to St. Armands Circle, with its restaurants and shopping, along with Sarasota and all it offers.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
