Lowest price per square foot for a beach condo on Lido Key...and it's fully remodeled in a tasteful, designer coastal style. This inviting 2,035-square-foot residence lives larger than expected thanks to a full-size den that easily functions as a third bedroom, office or media room. And here's a subtle luxury you'll enjoy every day: the home's orientation helps keep interiors refreshingly cool, even on the sunniest Sarasota afternoons, so you can come in from the beach and relax in comfort. The open floorplan features an expansive Florida room with front-row views of Sarasota Bay, the downtown skyline and golden sunrises. The serene coastal palette, highlighted by seafoam blue walls and engineered hardwood floors, sets a tranquil tone throughout the home. The open-concept layout flows from a solid-wood and granite kitchen with stainless steel appliances and built-in desk, into a gracious dining space anchored by a dry bar. The primary suite is a private sanctuary, complete with a sunroom, dual walk-in closets, and ensuite bath. A separate guest suite with its own walk-in closet ensures space for family and friends. Additional features include impact windows throughout, two coat closets in the foyer, and two hallway storage closets. A shared utility room on the floor has an assigned storage locker, as well as large-capacity washer and dryer. If you prefer to have an in-home laundry, in-unit appliances are allowed. The first-floor community space was remodeled in 2025 and features lobby, fitness room, and social room with kitchen. First-floor amenities also include shower/saunas and bike rack storage. The beach-side pool area features full Gulf views, BBQ grills, kayak/paddleboard racks, and an expansive deck for enjoying the Gulf-front location. Nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and Sarasota Bay, Key Towers South sits on a prime piece of waterfront on south Lido Key. Lido Beach is your back yard. Just a quarter mile south is South Lido Key Park with outdoor activities and mangrove tunnels. One mile north is world-renowned St. Armand's Circle with posh shopping, dining and nightlife. And four miles over the iconic Ringling Bridge is Downtown Sarasota. The free Sarasota Bay Runner trolley takes you from south Lido to Downtown Sarasota with multiple stops along the way.
