About this home
Welcome to your slice of beach paradise in the heart of Sarasota! Step outside to world-famous Lido Beach, where the recently completed beach renourishment project has added a wide expanse of powder-soft sand for morning walks, sun-filled afternoons and spectacular Gulf sunsets. Take a leisurely stroll to St. Armands Circle for dining and boutique shopping, then return home to the relaxed coastal lifestyle of Lido Ambassador.
This prime corner location offers a rare blend of privacy and sunshine, with just a single shared wall and the benefit of two windows that fill the primary suite with natural light. The split two-bedroom floorplan is perfect for hosting friends and family, providing your guests with a spacious bedroom and their own private bath. The primary suite is designed for both comfort and function, featuring a large walk-in closet with custom built-in storage, an ensuite bath complete with a washer and dryer, and ample space for a work desk or cozy reading nook. The open kitchen boasts granite countertops, a wine cooler, and plenty of storage—ideal for entertaining and extended visits. The open living/dining area flows seamlessly onto the screened-in patio, perfect for savoring sunsets during happy hour. For your peace of mind, the unit features newer hurricane impact windows and sliding doors (2021), a new water heater, and a recently replaced roof (via the association). The condo sits comfortably above the beach on the second level, with easy access via stairs or elevator to the newly renovated heated swimming pool and spacious sun deck, along with the community fitness room and clubhouse. An assigned covered parking spot and secure private storage area provide the comforts of home, right on the beach. Nestled among multi-million-dollar properties, the Lido Ambassador stands out with its stunning beach access as the closest beachfront condo to iconic St. Armand’s Circle. For a vacation-like experience any day of the week, simply step next door to the Lido Beach Resort Tiki Bar or the 8th-floor “Drift” restaurant, where phenomenal views across the beach and skyline await - both open to the public. You really cannot find a better beachfront value nested in the heart of Sarasota’s most popular attractions. This property is offered turnkey furnished and is ready for immediate occupancy, so you can embrace the beachfront lifestyle without delay. Schedule your tour today!...
