		<description><![CDATA[Point Crisp may be small – less than 15 homes – but its unique location and beautiful blend of the natural and the manmade make it one of Siesta Key’s most desirable neighborhoods. Situated just south of the Stickney Point bridge and directly across from the Sanderling Club, it consists of a narrow peninsula of land extending out into Sarasota Bay. Most of the homes are on the water and many of them have views in several different directions – a very special occurrence in a town famous for its water views. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Families with school-age children can look forward to enrolling them in one of Florida’s highest-rated public school systems. The Sarasota County school district has been designated an “A” district by the Florida Department of Education, with 95 percent of its elementary schools and 84 percent of its high schools receiving “A” or “B” grades in 2009. Its graduation rate is at an all-time high of 86 percent; and even though we are rarely thought of in the same breath as Florida's better-known college towns, our college-bound seniors have no less than 15 institutions of higher learning to choose from within Sarasota, Manatee and Charlotte Counties.]]></description>
