Property Description
Owner will consider less than a 12-month lease at the seasonal rate. Owner is willing to lease the condo unfurnished for an annual lease. Live above it all in this rarely available penthouse at Lawrence Pointe, one of Sarasota's premier bayfront communities beside the Ritz-Carlton. With unmatched views of Sarasota Bay and the Ringling Bridge, this 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence delivers the ultimate waterfront lifestyle. Inside, expansive living and dining areas are wrapped in walls of glass, filling the home with natural light and panoramic water views. Multiple sitting areas, a chef's kitchen with a large center island, breakfast bar, and a butler's pantry with washer/dryer make everyday living effortless. Spanish tile floors and hurricane shutters add comfort and peace of mind. The primary suite offers generous space, a spa-like bath, built-in workspace, and ample storage. A private guest suite with an en-suite bath and an additional half bath create ideal separation for visitors. Step onto your private balcony to enjoy sunrise coffee or sunset cocktails over the bay. Just steps from your lobby, the bayfront pool provides one of the best vantage points in Sarasota, complete with lounge seating, shaded areas, and a BBQ station. Additional highlights include two covered parking spaces and an unbeatable location close to Bayfront Park, Marina Jack, the Van Wezel, Main Street dining, St. Armands Circle, and Lido Beach.
