About this property
Wake up to the sound of the waves and end your day with sunsets over the Gulf; welcome to life at l’Elegance on Lido Beach. This 3-bedroom, 3-bath condo offers just under 2,000 square feet of bright, airy living space designed for people who love the coast. Step onto your private 50-foot terrace and feel the sea breeze drift in; every bedroom opens to its own terrace through sliding glass doors, so you’re always just a few steps away from the outdoors. From the main living area, you’ll take in sweeping views of Sarasota Bay with a peek of the Gulf glimmering beyond. It’s the perfect backdrop for morning coffee or evening wine. l’Elegance is a gulf-front, gated community that makes every day feel like a getaway. There’s a huge heated pool, relaxing spa, kiddie pool, tennis courts, and private access to the white sandy beaches just beyond the gate. You’ll also have underground parking, on-site management, and maintenance staff, so living here is as easy as it is beautiful. And when you’re ready for a night out, St. Armands Circle, with its restaurants, boutique shops, and live music is just minutes away. This isn’t just a condo. It’s your front-row seat to the Sarasota lifestyle, where the beach is your backyard, and every day starts with sunshine and ends with a sunset.
