About This Home

Experience the best of beachfront living at Key Tower South on Lido Beach. The expansive beach views are nothing short of spectacular from the moment you enter the lobby. As your guests enter this spacious 1,781-square-foot residence, their first impression will be the lovely hospitality bar in the large foyer area. This well-appointed unit features a large open living and dining area bordered by a 23 foot long sunroom. * * * There are two generous bedrooms plus a versatile den with a built-in Murphy bed concealed within attractive custom wood cabinetry. Large travertine stone tile flooring flows throughout the main living areas, while the primary suite offers brand-new carpeting, two large walk-in closets, a dual sink vanity, a comfort-height toilet, a walk-in shower and its own private sunroom. Abundant storage throughout the entire residence adds to its everyday convenience and the recessed lighting creates a contemporary feel. The kitchen is well laid out with lots of counter space and areas for admirers or critics to pull up a bar stool and watch the chef work their magic. * * *
Enjoy the peaceful eastern exposure on the private terraces off both the living room and primary bedroom, providing inviting sunlit spaces to relax and take in views of the Sarasota skyline, which sparkles beautifully after sunset. One of the home's two air-conditioning systems is brand new and the other was installed in 2022. * * *
Key Tower South has undergone extensive renovations, including a complete transformation of the lobby and common areas in 2025. The building also features its own perimeter hurricane and storm-surge protection system for added peace of mind.
Residents enjoy 220 feet of private Gulf-front beach, direct beach access, a heated beachfront pool, expansive sun deck, fitness center, saunas, library, bike storage, and on-site management. This exceptional residence offers the comfort, convenience, and lifestyle that make Lido Beach one of Sarasota's most desirable waterfront destinations.
