Overview

Rarely available penthouse residence at L’Elegance. Only a handful of addresses can truly claim panoramic views of Sarasota’s epic coastline. This sophisticated 11th-floor beachfront penthouse fits the bill with walls of glass and wraparound balcony with 270-degree views from the Gulf of Mexico to Sarasota Bay to downtown Sarasota. Quietly removed from the ordinary at the south end of Lido Key, yet convenient to world-class amenities at St. Armands Circle and downtown Sarasota - beach, sunsets, restaurants, marketplaces, entertainment, galleries and parks are all nearby - love the Sarasota lifestyle. This three-bedroom, three-bath penthouse has 2,070 square feet of living space plus a 450-square-foot covered wraparound balcony. Classic marble flooring and high ceilings set a lofty tone for an elegant yet free-spirited lifestyle. Designed for full enjoyment of the spectacular setting, the open living space is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall sliding glass doors and a glass-railed balcony. The recently remodeled kitchen features solid-wood cabinetry, granite countertops, Frigidaire Gallery stainless appliances and an eat-in area. The spacious master bedroom has a full Gulf view, large walk-in closet, and luxurious en-suite bath with dual vanity, soaking tub and walk-in shower. L’Elegance is a gated community located directly on 400 feet of beachfront on Lido Key. Resort amenities include gated entry with a full-time attendant, porte-cochere, grand lobby, two Har-Tru tennis courts, fitness room, men’s and women’s locker rooms and social room. The heated, beachside pool is the largest on the island and includes two 25-meter lanes. L’Elegance is home to an active social community that organizes social events for its residents such as sunset cocktail parties and an annual tennis tournament. The best attraction is the daily ritual to watch the sunset. It stirs the soul and guarantees that living on Lido Beach will always be a great place to be.
