Property Description

Best Gulf Views – Like Having Your Own Beach! Located directly on the sands of Lido Key, this beautifully updated and fully furnished Gulf-front residence offers an exceptional blend of timeless style and effortless beachside living. With sweeping panoramic, 180-degree views from Siesta Key to Longboat Key and vibrant sunsets from your private balcony, this sixth-floor sanctuary captures the very essence of Florida luxury. Inside, the spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath split floor plan is complemented by a dedicated office—ideal for remote work, hobbies, or quiet reflection. Spanish marble flooring flows through the main living areas, while both bedrooms feature brand-new carpeting installed in 2025. Granite countertops add elegance to both bathrooms. Well-appointed furnishings and striking wall art deliver a refined, move-in-ready. The kitchen was fully updated last year and has been thoughtfully designed to maximize functionality and style, featuring custom cabinetry, a built-in spice rack drawer, stain resistant and low maintenance quartz countertops, and a wine refrigerator—perfect for both daily living and entertaining. Every room in the residence enjoys uninterrupted Gulf views, offering a constant connection to the ocean just beyond your windows.The owners have taken exceptional care of the home including a new glass shower door installed this year, adding thoughtful touches to its modern appeal. The expansive outdoor lanai is significantly larger than most condominiums, offering an exceptional setting to unwind, dine al fresco, or simply soak in the breathtaking surroundings. New vinyl impact sliding glass doors, installed in 2025, along with easy roll-up hurricane shutters, provide both peace of mind and year-round comfort. Additional conveniences include a dedicated covered carport space and a private storage locker in the shared laundry room. Key Tower South is a meticulously maintained beachfront community offering a heated beachside pool with an expansive sundeck to soak in the views, plus direct access to the sand just steps from your door. The first-floor community space was fully remodeled in 2025 and features a welcoming lobby, fitness room, library, and social room with kitchen—perfect for entertaining. Additional amenities include shower/saunas, bike rack storage, and on-site management. Outside your door, enjoy the quiet, walkable streets of Lido Key, offering a peaceful lifestyle with minimal traffic—unlike the busier pace of Longboat Key. Explore South Lido Park’s nature trails and kayak launches, stroll to St. Armands Circle, or drive across the Ringling Bridge to Downtown Sarasota—all within easy reach. Even SRQ Airport is just a short drive away, making travel effortless. Ready for immediate enjoyment, this exceptional home offers beachfront living at its finest—where every day feels like a getaway. Don’t miss the opportunity to call this piece of paradise your own.
