Perfectly placed on the 15th floor of the Ritz-Carlton managed Tower Residences, this corner residence captures sweeping panoramas of Sarasota Bay, the Bayfront yacht basin, the downtown skyline, and vibrant city lights stretching toward the horizon. Spanning nearly 2,800 square feet, the open floor plan is designed to frame water and city views from nearly every room while offering comfortable spaces for both everyday living and entertaining. Travertine flooring flows throughout the main living areas, creating a cohesive foundation for the light-filled interior. The great room is surrounded by walls of floor-to-ceiling windows and glass sliders that open to the residence's largest terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection and an ideal setting for taking in Sarasota's skyline and waterfront activity. Just beyond, the dining area is positioned to capture sweeping views while remaining conveniently connected to the kitchen. The chef's kitchen blends functionality with timeless design, featuring natural wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar that opens to the living areas. This thoughtful layout encourages effortless entertaining while maintaining clear sightlines to the water and city skyline. All bedrooms feature bamboo hardwood flooring, offering warmth and contrast to the stone flooring in the main living spaces. The primary suite is privately positioned and serves as a relaxing retreat, complete with direct terrace access, dual walk-in closets, and a spacious marble en-suite bath with split vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower. The guest suite includes its own walk-in closet and a private terrace, while the third bedroom-currently arranged as a den or office-provides flexibility for guests or remote work. The residence includes two secure under-building parking spaces and an air-conditioned owner's storage unit located on the third floor. Life at The Tower Residences offers the full benefit of Ritz-Carlton services and amenities. Residents enjoy concierge assistance, valet parking, and 24-hour room service from the adjacent Ritz-Carlton Hotel. Community features include a resort-style pool and spa (currently being updated), outdoor grilling and dining areas, an expansive social room with catering kitchen and fireplace, a theater, billiards and recreation room, elegant library and boardroom, and a fully equipped fitness center with locker rooms, sauna, steam room, and massage facilities. Located in the heart of downtown Sarasota, this residence places the city's waterfront lifestyle just outside your door. Marina facilities are less than half a mile away, while nearby Bayfront Park, the Sarasota Opera House, Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, and numerous galleries and theaters anchor the city's vibrant cultural scene. St. Armands Circle's boutiques and restaurants are less than two miles away, and the white sands of Lido Key and Longboat Key's Gulf beaches are only minutes from the property-bringing the very best of Sarasota living within effortless reach.
