Stunning and rare opportunity in Lido Towers on Lido Key. This completely renovated 3-bedroom, 3-bath residence offers an exceptional opportunity to own the lowest-priced three-bedroom condominium on Lido Key while enjoying a prime coastal lifestyle. This stunning residence has been extensively updated from top to bottom. Since purchasing the unit, the current owners have essentially gutted and transformed the interior, creating a modern and sophisticated living space. Updates include new flooring throughout, new ceiling and wall texture, a beautifully redesigned kitchen with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless-steel appliances, along with new interior doors, updated plumbing fixtures, LED lighting throughout, new ceiling fans, and beautifully updated bathrooms. Additional improvements include impact-rated sliders, impact windows and a brand-new HVAC system, providing comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind. The spacious floor plan offers two separate balconies with partial views of the Gulf of Mexico, perfect for enjoying the coastal breeze and spectacular sunsets. One of the most desirable features is the deeded beach access directly across the street, allowing you to easily enjoy the world-famous sands of Lido Beach. Despite the generous size and prime location, the residence also benefits from remarkably low condominium fees compared to similar properties on the island. Residents of Lido Towers enjoy a variety of amenities including a beautifully maintained pool, clubhouse, assigned parking space, and a private storage unit. Located just moments away from the world-class shopping, dining, and entertainment of St. Armands Circle, this property offers the perfect blend of convenience, luxury, and coastal charm. Whether you’re looking for a primary residence, seasonal retreat, or investment opportunity, this move-in-ready Lido Key condominium is an outstanding value in one of Sarasota’s most sought-after beachfront communities.
