500 The Esplanade N

Gulf Twin Towers is a mid-rise, seven-story condominium complex built in 1968 on Venice Island with two-bedroom residences primarily configured as 2-bedroom/2-bath units. The building presents a traditional coastal aesthetic with stucco-clad exterior and balconies or large windows in many units that capture direct westward Gulf of Mexico views and sunsets. Common interior features across units include open or combined living/dining layouts, built-ins, crown molding, solid-surface and stone counters, walk-in closets, ceiling fans, and elevator access to upper floors. Owners benefit from ground-level conveniences such as exterior storage, assigned covered parking/carports, abundant guest parking, and on-site laundry facilities near the elevator. The association operates a landscaped, gated beachfront parcel (over one acre) that provides 174 feet of private sand, a heated pool, poolside restrooms and showers, gas grills, picnic seating, and a shuffleboard court; a separate clubhouse with kitchen and meeting space supports community gatherings. Recent capital improvements reported over time include impact-resistant windows/sliders, PVC plumbing upgrades, elevator replacement, roof work, resurfaced parking, foundation stabilization, and HVAC and water-heater replacements in some units. The property sits a short walk from Historic Downtown Venice amenities — dining, boutiques, theater, and marina access — offering a blend of beach-oriented recreation and an active small-town neighborhood experience.
