Property Description

Ritz-Carlton Beach Club Membership is available with this residence. Indulge in resort-style luxury with the famed Ritz-Carlton experience right on Lido Beach. This west-facing residence captures the essence of island sophistication, where breathtaking sunsets, swaying palms, and the rhythmic roar of the Gulf create an eternal, relaxing backdrop for everyday coastal living. From the moment you enter, you are welcomed by 10 ft floor-to-ceiling glass walls that invite natural light and sweeping views, a generous wraparound terrace that extends your living space out to the Gulf's sea breeze. Thoughtful design & flexible living spaces define this refined residence. The oversized primary suite invites you to unwind in a true sanctuary of comfort, with tranquil light, generous proportions, & a spa-like aura. The primary suite features a California-style walk-in closet/dressing room. Adjacent, a versatile bedroom awaits your vision—configure it as a second bedroom for guests, a private study for focused work, or a serene reading nook to savor quiet moments. The chef-ready kitchen is a culinary enthusiast’s dream; gleaming Quartz countertops, professional-grade Wolf, Bosch, and Sub-Zero appliances, New solid-wood cabinetry, and a spacious pantry. As a bonus, the Sub-Zero refrigerator is equipped with a built-in reverse-osmosis filtration system for pristine, purified water. Rich wood flooring flows seamlessly throughout, complemented by marble baths that exude timeless elegance. The home is being sold beautifully furnished by Restoration Hardware, combining classic luxury with modern practicality. Every piece is thoughtfully selected to harmonize with the architecture, creating a cohesive, effortless atmosphere. From the curated lighting to the tactful texture play, this residence embodies refined living at its best. Every aspect of this residence has been meticulously upgraded, featuring a new HVAC system & a new tankless water heater. Living at The Beach Residences means embracing the iconic Ritz-Carlton lifestyle with a full suite of concierge services & world-class amenities. Dive into the resort-style pool & spa, savor social moments in the well-appointed social room, or host guests in two elegant guest suites. Enjoy Ritz amenities, including a pool, spa, social room, 2 guest suites, boardroom, theater, & gym. Beach Club membership is included for instant enjoyment. Pet-friendly: 2 pets welcome, no weight limit. Beachfront living on Lido Beach means easy access to sun, sand, and sea, all within a refined, secure, amenity-rich setting. The Ritz Beach Club is just steps away (membership available for immediate enjoyment). Enjoy the beachside resort-style pool, restaurant, and bar. Convenience and culture are minutes away from St. Armands Circle, where you will find some of the finest dining and boutique shopping, and a short stroll to downtown Sarasota’s vibrant theaters, opera, galleries, and restaurants. You will enjoy the best of both worlds: the pristine beauty of coastal living with the sophistication and service you expect from the Ritz-Carlton.
