Wake up to the rhythm of the waves and endless Gulf views that stretch beyond imagination. Every room of this impeccably maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath coastal retreat captures the magic of life on the water—set high on the 4th floor of one of Lido Key’s most coveted addresses.

Flooded with natural light, this refined escape blends relaxed sophistication with modern comfort. The open-concept design flows effortlessly to a sprawling 240 sq. ft. balcony, your private front-row seat to fiery sunsets and the tranquil blues of the Gulf of America. Inside, walls of glass invite the outdoors in, creating a seamless connection to sea and sky.

Perfectly positioned directly across from Lido Beach and a leisurely stroll from the world-class dining, boutiques, and charm of St. Armands Circle, this residence defines effortless island living.

The exclusive community elevates every moment with a newly redesigned lobby, state-of-the-art fitness center, resort-style heated pool, and attentive on-site management—all designed to make ownership a breeze.

Whether you’re seeking a peaceful full-time home or a luxurious vacation hideaway, this is where sophistication meets the sea—a rare opportunity to live the Gulf-front dream on the shimmering shores of Lido Key.
