Property Description

ST. ARMANDS TOWERS NORTH - Location is everything: you are steps from the sugar-white sands of Lido Beach and just one block from vibrant St. Armands Circle boutiques, galleries, and culinary experiences. This stylish northeast-facing residence on the fifth floor is sold furnished and ready for immediate enjoyment. The interior was designed for effortless elegance, featuring warm bamboo flooring, crisp crown molding, and plantation shutters that beautifully filter the Florida sun. The open-concept floor plan flows seamlessly through three sets of sliding glass doors (with new hurricane shutters) in the living room and both bedrooms, to an expansive 240 sq. ft. balcony—your private sanctuary for enjoying tropical breezes. The kitchen boasts a delightfully functional layout, with ample cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. Two full bathrooms include a primary ensuite, offering privacy for you and your guests. Convenience meets beachside luxury with an in-unit washer/dryer, large storage closet, and a dedicated covered carport space with an adjacent storage locker. The St. Armands Towers North community provides a worry-free living experience, having completed all required structural reviews. An on-site manager keeps the building in top condition, proactive maintenance keeps fees low, and the reserves are fully funded. Residents can indulge in a resort-like lifestyle with fantastic amenities, including a heated pool with Gulf views, exercise room, library, and beautiful newly remodeled community room. Location is everything, and this condo delivers. Whether you enjoy sunbathing on the sands of Lido Beach, exploring the kayak launches and nature trails of nearby South Lido Park, shopping, and dining on St. Armands, or relaxing in the splendor of your refined retreat, this property offers the ultimate island experience. A free local shuttle with a stop nearby even provides convenient transport directly to downtown Sarasota, allowing you easy access to explore the area's rich cultural offerings. Enjoy sophisticated, maintenance-free coastal living at one of Lido Key's most desirable addresses!
