About This Home

Experience the charm of Lido Towers, a highly sought-after coastal community set on world-famous Lido Beach. This refreshed and inviting 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence delivers effortless coastal living with deeded beach access just steps away. The residence comes beautifully furnished, allowing for a fully turnkey experience—ideal for personal use or immediate rental income. Monthly rentals are permitted, and the on-site management company makes ownership truly hassle-free. Inside, the unit is bright and comfortable with fresh paint, new water heater and dishwasher with updated finishing touches, and a private screened balcony—perfect for enjoying the warm Gulf breeze. The building itself is known for its secure, well-maintained environment, offering beautifully landscaped tropical grounds, soundproof walls, individually controlled heating and air, and reserved covered parking for convenience and peace of mind. Residents enjoy a full suite of amenities designed to enhance everyday living. The heated pool, spa, and sauna create a relaxing retreat, while the poolside card and party room, outdoor BBQ area, and lush gathering spaces encourage a true community atmosphere. Practical features such as two elevators, a laundry room on each floor, an emergency electrical generator, and included water, sewer, trash, and common-area WiFi further elevate the ease of ownership. Beyond the building, the location is exceptional. Step across the street to your private deeded beach access, take a stroll to either end of Lido Beach, or walk/bike less than a mile to the shops, cafés, and restaurants of St. Armands Circle. Directly across from the community is South Lido/Ted Sperling Park, a beloved destination for kayaking through mangroves, paddleboarding, birdwatching, or exploring nature trails. Quick trolley access offers a direct link to Sarasota’s Bayfront and vibrant downtown district. This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained, turnkey condominium in one of the most sought-after beach destinations on Florida’s Gulf Coast—ideal for full-time living, seasonal use, or investment.
