Excelsior

Excelsior Condos for Sale – Siesta Key, Sarasota, Florida 34242

Thousands of condo units must’ve been built in Siesta Key since this barrier island off the city of Sarasota started drawing an ever-increasing number of residents and tourists both from other parts of the U.S. and from overseas sometime in the mid-1960s. Nevertheless, very few of these pioneering condominiums can match the sheen of Excelsior Beach to Bay because of its features which are truly unique among Siesta Key condos for sale.

This condo was developed from 1981 to 1982 in a property straddling a mid-section of the eight-mile long Siesta Key. Bisected by the island’s major thoroughfare, Midnight Pass Road, this development has deftly made use of its direct beachfront site towards west and the property’s bayside frontage to its east. Excelsior consists of 166 units housed in clusters of low-rise condo villas built at the property’s bay side and in four-level residential structures constructed on the opposite beachfront site of the complex.

Deeded beach access

Residing or vacationing at Excelsior Beach to Bay thus offers a twofold experience in island living rolled into one property. Along its western perimeter, fronting the Gulf of Mexico, this development has its own private slice of the world-renowned Crescent Beach which segues toward north to the equally famous Siesta Public Beach and its newly upgraded facilities.

Across the street towards east, the Excelsior complex puts forward a classic Florida landscape of walkways and garden with shady tropical trees, lagoons and fountains. This bay side of the property also hoststhe condominium’s clubhouse, in addition to having spacious picnic areas furnished with outdoor barbecue grills. It likewise provides a covered fishing pier which at the same time serves as a quiet nook for observing water activities at the Intracoastal Waterway.

Like its gulfside counterpart, the condominium’s bayside complex has its own heated pool and whirlpool. Three lighted tennis courts and a well-equipped fitness center with saunas are also provided here.

Primebayside units

Distinctive Siesta Key condos for sale can be found in particular at the Excelsior’s bayfront condo cluster. This section was developed with eight villas directly at the bayfront, with select condos featuring three bedrooms and three baths within a floor area measuring 2,425 square feet. Rarely available in the market, these units overlook two small islets which not only complement the stunning bay views but also serve as habitat to charming birds and wildlife.

Choice units at Excelsior are impeccably maintained and flaunt recent interior upgrades. Standard units in this condominium having a floor area of about 1,500 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths would typically be sales-listed with a tag price in the upper $400s. Prime condos, such as this complex’s end units having about the same square footage could have their asking prices edge upwards to the $800s.

Well-marketed rentals

While sales listings at Excelsior could be few, it may be worth the while waiting and closely working with a pro realtor to keep a look out on the units becoming available here. This condo’s great gulf-front and bayside location combined with superb residential amenities make units at Excelsior promising as rental property investments.

Notably, this condominium’s rental program is very well-managed, and a two-week minimum lease is allowed. Excelsior, moreover, has a strong online marketing program and its website contributes in no small measure to sustaining the popularity of Siesta Key not only to tourists but also to aspiring residents, whether seasonal or permanent.
