About this home
Poised high above the Gulf of Mexico in the coveted & guard-gated Orchid Beach Club, this gulf-to-bay penthouse features breathtaking direct views of azure Gulf waters & expansive Lido beach, dazzling & vibrant sunsets, plus spectacular Bay & Downtown City views. This masterfully renovated 3654 sf condominium embodies refined luxury, bespoke craftsmanship, & is offered turnkey furnished featuring new designer pieces curated by decorator Audrey Arthur. Your private elevator foyer opens to an expansive main living room, where a comprehensive renovation showcases Venetian plaster walls, sculptural Soft Square lighting, and custom floating cabinetry by Metro Cabinet Company, creating an atmosphere of effortless sophistication. Floor-to-ceiling impact-rated sliding glass doors draw the eye to shimmering horizon, ensuring the Gulf remains an ever-present backdrop for gathering and entertaining. The adjacent dining room enjoys equally dramatic views and is anchored by a bespoke floating wine bar, complemented by dining table and chairs imported from Italy. Beyond, the serene family room offers a relaxed coastal setting-quiet, luminous, and framed by sparkling blue water, with custom finishes that evoke warmth and refinement. The kitchen blends craftsmanship and function with custom Westwood Manufacturing cabinetry, refined stone surfaces, a center island, and a suite of chef-caliber appliances including a custom paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator and Faber/Dacor cooking ensemble including double ovens & 5-burner gas cooktop. The Gulf-facing terrace offers an extraordinary expanse of outdoor living space with a granite-clad grill station and stainless hood, ideal for coastal dining and sunset gatherings. The spacious primary suite is a private retreat with sitting area and direct access to the gulf-front terrace, offering an intimate front-row seat to sunset, and the rhythm of the waves. Two custom walk-in closets and a spa-inspired marble bath with a dual-entry glass shower and deep jetted soaking tub complete this serene escape. Two guest suites welcome visitors with bespoke walk-in closets, luxuriously finished baths, and access to a 2nd sweeping terrace capturing enchanting sunrises and views of Sarasota Bay & the sparkling city skyline. Each bedroom is finished with warm wide-plank Legno Bastone floors. Thoughtful updates throughout include Control4 smart home automation w/ LED lighting & electric window treatments, frame art TV, custom window cornices, designer wallpaper, wide-plank wood floors, a reimagined laundry room, and 2025 ACs.
