About This Home
Welcome to Residence 1205 at Condo on the Bay, one of Sarasota’s most iconic waterfront addresses. Perched high above the shoreline, this elegant 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers approximately 1,729 sq ft of refined living with panoramic, unobstructed views of Sarasota Bay that transform daily living into a private waterfront experience.
From the moment you enter, the sweeping vistas pull you in, shimmering open water, sailboats gliding by, and postcard sunsets that fill the sky. High-rise living here is more than beautiful; it’s effortless. The layout is designed to maximize light, space, and the breathtaking scenery, with a generous balcony that feels like an outdoor living room suspended over the bay.
Inside, the home delivers the level of comfort and sophistication expected of a premier bayfront building. Expansive living and dining spaces flow seamlessly, perfect for relaxation or hosting. The private bedroom suites offer their own spectacular perspectives, creating daily moments of calm and inspiration. Whether you’re a year-round resident or seasonal homeowner, this floor and view line remains one of the most sought-after in the entire tower.
Life at Condo on the Bay is world-class. The community is renowned for its resort-style amenities, including two heated pools, tennis, a state-of-the-art fitness center, boat docks, 24-hour security, covered parking, and impeccably maintained grounds surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. Step outside and you’re moments from downtown Sarasota, the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, The Bay Park, waterfront dining, shopping, galleries, and cultural venues that make this one of the most desirable urban coastal destinations in Florida.
The building maintains strong reserves, attentive management, and a prestigious reputation, contributing to consistently strong resale value. With similar high-floor bayfront residences selling quickly in the $1.3–$2.1 million range, opportunities like this are limited.
