Overview

A little unexpected. A lot to discover. And the Gulf is part of the view. Tucked into a tropical setting on Lido Key, this end-unit townhouse is one of those homes best experienced in person. With no neighbor on one side, additional sliders and windows bring in beautiful natural light, while views of the Gulf appear from the living room and outdoor spaces both upstairs and down. The kitchen offers expansive counter space, a coastal backsplash and a bay window that adds character and light. Nearby, the laundry closet is thoughtfully finished with custom cabinetry. Outdoor living is part of everyday life here. The main living area opens to a balcony with room for casual dinners overlooking the tropical surroundings and Gulf beyond. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has its own private balcony, while the ground-floor patio gives you another place to relax, grill and come home with sandy feet after the beach. Even the third bedroom has something special—a bay window that gives the room personality and makes it equally appealing as a bedroom, office or flex space. It seems every room has a feature of its own. And the two-car garage? There’s room for more than cars. Beach toys, bikes, paddleboards, storage, a workshop—or a combination of them all. On Lido Key, that kind of space is something you quickly learn to appreciate. Multiple balconies, Gulf views, an end-unit setting, a two-car garage and the feeling of a home rather than a typical condominium. And the Gulf views? Those are better left for the showing. Seeing is believing on Lido Key.
