20040 Gulf Blvd

Sand Castle III is a low-rise, six-story Gulf-front condominium completed in 1981 that offers three-bedroom floor plans across its mid-rise footprint. The exterior reads as a beachfront resort block with balconies facing the Gulf and under-building parking for residents. Interiors commonly feature open layouts combining living, dining and kitchen areas, wet and dry bars, solid-surface and stone counters, walk-in closets, ceiling fans and window treatments. Units typically include sliding glass doors to balconies, tile or vinyl flooring, in-unit laundry closets, and split-bedroom arrangements that place the master suite on the seaward side. The association maintains shared amenities oriented to beach recreation: a heated pool, spa/hot tub, gas grills and direct sandy beach access, plus outdoor showers and irrigation for grounds. Practical building features include an elevator, hurricane shutters or impact windows on many units, roof replacement history, assigned parking and routine condo management that covers common utilities and reserves. The location on Indian Shores places the property within a short drive of dining and services, with local beach trolley access for island circulation and airport access roughly 40 minutes away.
