About This Home
Experience sweeping panoramic views from this beautifully renovated 10th-floor residence, fully move-in ready. The reimagined kitchen opens seamlessly to the living area, while every room flows onto an expansive, covered lanai ideal for alfresco dining and sunset relaxation. Interior features include neutral tile flooring, updated décor, an extended spa-style shower, and a generous walk-in closet. The spacious primary suite offers ample room for a sitting area, and the second bedroom features a Murphy bed, allowing the space to function effortlessly as a home office. Marvel at the shimmering waters of Sarasota Bay, the iconic Ringling Bridge, and the sparkling city skyline—all from the comfort of your home. L’Elegance is Lido’s best-kept secret: a well-managed, friendly, and highly sought-after community offering exceptional resort-style amenities. Enjoy an Olympic-size beachfront pool and spa overlooking the white sands of Lido Beach, two lighted Har-Tru tennis courts, a well-equipped fitness center, climate-controlled storage, and secure garage parking. The guard gated complex with onsite manager provides enhanced security, and recent improvements include a new roof, fresh exterior paint, and upcoming renovations to hallways and the club room. The building is pet-friendly and welcomes large dogs. With minimal storm impact and no outstanding assessments, this residence offers complete peace of mind. Perfectly positioned just minutes from the upscale dining and boutique shopping of St. Armands Circle and the vibrant cultural offerings of downtown Sarasota, this is coastal living at its finest.
