Delight in captivating bay, marina, bridge and city views and a luxury lifestyle with unsurpassed service and amenities in this stately, elegantly designed 3,751-square-foot condominium at The Tower Residences at The Ritz-Carlton. A private elevator opens to a gracious foyer that flows into the light-filled southeast-facing four-bedroom, four-bathroom condominium, showcasing thoughtful appointments and refined finishes at every turn. Gleaming marble flooring, rich wood flooring, dazzling chandeliers, striking tray ceilings and dramatic walls of glass are found throughout the open, updated floorplan. Sliding glass doors lead to two expansive 10th-floor terraces, which offer views of Sarasota Bay, Marina Jack, the Ringling Bridge and the city as well as rows of towering palms below. Enjoy a front row seat to view the boat parades and firework displays from Sarasota’s Bayfront Park. The cherished outdoor spaces are perfect for starting your day with a cup of coffee, dining alfresco or a nightcap while savoring the picturesque surroundings and balmy breezes. Inside the residence, chefs will be in their element in the lovely well-appointed kitchen, which includes a Wolf double oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator and abundant granite counters, while family and guests mingle indoors or on the terraces. A serene retreat awaits in the private owner’s suite, with large windows and an adjacent balcony boasting breathtaking views of the bayfront panorama. The spacious quarters also feature dual closets with custom cabinetry, a morning kitchen and an opulent bathroom with a whirlpool tub and two separate vanities. Overnight visitors will be comfortable in the generously sized guest suite with a sliding door to the terrace or two additional bedrooms with baths, which also offer flex space options such as a family room, library or office. There also are two assigned garage parking spaces that are EV charging capable. The current owner was involved in a successful effort to complete electrical work in The Tower Residences garage that enabled each owner to have availability for an EV charger in one of their parking spots. World-class amenities include concierge, 24-hour in-residence dining, heated pool and spa, fitness center, sauna and steam baths, massage therapy room, plus air-conditioned storage. Downtown Sarasota’s theaters, opera, symphony, art galleries, dining and shopping are within walking distance, and pristine beaches are just minutes away.
