About This Home

Welcome to Penthouse #2 at 770 S Palm Avenue in downtown Sarasota—a rarely available top-floor residence in the iconic Embassy House. Perched on the 18th floor, this two-bedroom, two-bath condo offers sweeping, unobstructed views of Sarasota Bay, the John Ringling Bridge, and the Gulf beyond. From this height, you’ll enjoy incredible privacy, no upstairs neighbors, and a daily front-row seat to some of the most breathtaking sunsets and sky color changes Sarasota has to offer. The layout is open and filled with natural light, featuring a practical kitchen, spacious living and dining areas, and a bright sunroom perfect for relaxing, entertaining and soaking in spectacular sunsets. Both bedrooms open onto a private terrace where you can take in morning sunrises and city views. Embassy House is known for its unbeatable bayfront location and strong sense of community. Amenities include a saltwater heated swimming pool, fitness center with bay views, electric car charging station, guest parking, outdoor grill, catering kitchen, and a recently updated modern lobby. Residents also enjoy the convenience of a concierge at the front desk, an on-site manager, and semi-private elevator access—to just two units. A shared laundry room for PH1 and PH2 is maintained by the HOA, along with service and replacement of washers, dryers, and A/C units. The building completed all structural integrity testing and had its roof replaced in 2024. The HOA fee includes cable, internet, water, sewer, and trash pickup—making it an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle. Just steps from Selby Gardens, Bayfront Park, Marina Jack, and all the dining, arts, and culture of downtown Sarasota, this penthouse offers the perfect blend of vibrant city living and serene waterfront views. Schedule your showing today and experience the view for yourself.
