About this home
Welcome to Lido Beach Club #102. Only two units in this complex are beachfront on the first floor. There are no lobby or elevator hassles for this unit. This first-floor private gulf-front two-bedroom, two-bath Beach home condo is where luxury meets coastal tranquility. This condo offers an unparalleled walkout to your lanai, blending the beach lifestyle with elegance, comfort, and breathtaking waterfront views. Fresh paint hues, high 10-foot ceilings in great rooms and bedrooms, and a massive mirrored wall accentuate the high-end finishes in turquoise, blues, greens, and beige, creating a coastal charm decor. Light dances through the large lanai and master bedroom sliders out to the lower pool deck and beach. From the pillow-tile kitchen backsplash and all new GE Profile appliances, including a 5-burner cooktop and single oven, #102 is turnkey furnished; check out the inventory list with three newer Samsung televisions and a multitude of accessories! If you wish to use this property as a residence or an investment, it embodies a formula of coastal elegance. The Rental of this property has been solid through most of the fall and spring seasons. Henredon and Martha Stewart master bedroom furnishings, a scattering of Annie Selke throw rugs, luxe upholstery, two new full beds and chests in the guest room, and a newly remodeled guest bath captivate the decor. Expansive light-filled sliders in the Living and Master bedroom invite you to enjoy the heated Gulf-front pool with private beach access. Your sizable private porch features dining and two sunbathing chaises, perfect for unwinding, watching a spectacular sunset, or enjoying your morning coffee. LBC features a fitness room with a sauna to support a healthy and fit lifestyle, a community room equipped with a full kitchen adjacent to the main lobby, and a beachfront grilling area. Lido Key Park is not far off, featuring bike trails and a kayaking area through mangroves. On the North side of the key, an Olympic-sized pool and the Lido Key Blue Pavilion complex are located. Next door to LBC is the Ritz-Carlton Beach Club with a beach bar, and it's a mere 1.2 miles to St. Armands Circle's restaurants, boutiques, and cultural events. Lido Beach Club has the Milestone report, on-site management, and secure entry to the building and the beach. This community is more than just a place to live; it's a place to thrive! Here, the beauty of the Gulf of America becomes an extension of your home, and every day is a celebration of effortless coastal luxury.
