Welcome to elevated coastal living at the Orchid Beach Club Residences on Lido Key, where island elegance meets the expansive serenity of Gulf to Bay. On the sixth floor, with direct fob-elevator access into your private resident foyer and double-door entry into a second interior foyer, this residence defines a grand, luxury beachfront lifestyle. This spacious three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath condominium delivers sweeping vistas of the city skyline, lushly green mangrove preserve, Gulf, Sarasota Bay, and the Intracoastal Waterway, an exquisite backdrop for your next chapter in Sarasota’s most desired beachfront address. Showcasing the sought-after Antigua floor plan, every sunrise over the east and glowing southern and southwest exposures floods the interiors with natural light, while evening sunsets crown the horizon. Crafted for effortless sophistication, the home features expansive open living areas, soaring ceilings, and walls of glass that frame coastal scenery. Rich marble flooring flows throughout the main living areas and spa-inspired baths, highlighted by stone showers and a jacuzzi soaking tub for refined relaxation. The open-concept kitchen blends function and high design with custom cabinetry, stone countertops, gas cooktop, breakfast bar, and family room that overlooks the bay view and breakfast nook. Go outside to a generous private terrace, a personal outdoor sanctuary, ideal for morning coffee or tea at sunrise or evening gatherings amid Gulf breezes. Complete with a built-in gas grill and ample space for dining and lounging, this terrace becomes an extension of your living space. The primary suite offers a tranquil escape with direct terrace access, dual walk-in closets and a luxurious marble bath. Two guest en suites, each with private terrace access, provide privacy and versatility, ideal for visiting friends or a dedicated home office. There are two convenient parking spaces assigned as well as a generous storage closet in the service corridor outside of the in unit laundry room featuring cabinetry, stackable washer and dryer and beverage/wine refrigerator. As a resident of Orchid Beach Club, indulge in a resort-style lifestyle with 24-hour gated security, concierge service, on-site management, and premier beachfront amenities. Enjoy a heated Gulf-front pool and spa with lap lanes, private cabanas, a state-of-the-art fitness center, massage and steam rooms, sauna, spacious social lounges, a dedicated dining and catering kitchen, and a library. Additional upscale touches include two expansive, gated dog run areas and two on-site guest suites with kitchenettes, dinettes, living room, en suite floor plan with walk-in closets and private terraces, ensuring your guests stay in comfort within this luxurious setting. Ideally a short distance to the Ritz Carlton beachfront Tiki Bar for a tropical cocktail, just minutes from St. Armands Circle and downtown Sarasota, residents benefit from fine dining, boutique shopping, and the city’s celebrated arts and cultural venues. Nearby exceptional dining includes upscale options such as neighboring Drift Kitchen & Bar with Gulf views, renowned Cafe Europa, Ocean Prime Sarasota for waterfront steak and seafood. Whether you are seeking a seasonal retreat or a full-time residence, this exceptional Lido Key condominium offers a maintenance-free, unparalleled Gulf-front living and a rare opportunity to call Orchid Beach Club your home.
