One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Live where others wish to vacation... Steps from the quartz-white sandy shores of Lido Key sits The Beach Residences Sarasota. This luxury Gulf-front and sun-kissed haven is where opulence is complimented by exclusivity. Managed by the famed Ritz-Carlton, this contemporary high-rise is where legendary service meets an incomparable array of upscale amenities and resort-style leisure. Nestled on the coveted Sarasota Bay barrier island of Lido Key, this expansive residence features a thoughtful 2-bedroom 2.5-bath layout that blends an open-concept plan with a split-bedroom design for optimal privacy. A welcoming foyer frames the turquoise Gulf waters and lush emerald green tropical landscaping as you step inside. Perched on the 3rd floor, soaring 10-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling walls of glass flood the residence with natural light. The great room and dining area flow seamlessly to a private terrace that spans the full width of the residence. With views from a generous 400+ square-foot outdoor space, you can enjoy alfresco dining and cool Gulf breezes. This residence is ideal for entertaining, with a layout tailored for gatherings or intimate evenings with friends and family. The chef’s kitchen overlooks an inviting living area and features granite countertops, a substantial breakfast bar, solid-wood cabinetry, gas cooktop, built-in appliances, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. Both bedrooms open directly to an expansive terrace for stunning westerly views and award-winning daily sunsets. The gracious primary suite serves as a serene retreat, featuring a spa-inspired bath and jetted tub, large walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a spacious walk-in closet. Additional conveniences include a laundry room with sink, deeded garage parking space, separate air-conditioned storage room, and 2 guest suites available for visitors. The Beach Residences are renowned for exceptional service and offer premier private-event spaces, including a social room with bar, boardroom, billiards or ping-pong room. Enjoy self-care in the private fitness center or indulge in fresh popcorn in the theatre or cappuccino at the coffee bar. Treat yourself with the massage room, yoga room, sauna, and beautiful outdoor pool and spa. Play with your furry friends in a private dog-run in this pet-friendly building with no weight limit! Grill a fresh catch near the fire pit where massive grilling stations complement the resort-style ambiance. Residents enjoy: a 24-hour manned entry gate house, full-time concierge, 24-hour front desk security, onsite Ritz-Carlton Manager, a shuttle bus to St. Armands Circle or to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in the city. Also, minutes away lie Sarasota’s pillow-soft beaches, while St. Armands Circle offers upscale dining, shopping, and entertainment. The downtown arts and cultural scene is within easy reach, providing countless recreational options. As the sole single-level residence of its configuration currently available in The Beach Residences, this true 2-bedroom unit with 2 full baths plus a powder room represents a rare and exceptional opportunity. Schedule a private tour to see how this grand lifestyle can become your reality. Membership is available to the Ritz-Carlton Members Club immediately upon closing.
