About this home
Experience the Ultimate in Siesta Key Beachfront Living
Located directly on world-renowned Siesta Beach, rated #1 in the U.S. and #4 worldwide by TripAdvisor, this stunning fifth-floor corner residence captures the essence of luxury coastal living. Recently renovated to perfection, this 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath condominium offers a rare combination of modern sophistication, coastal elegance, and sweeping Gulf views. Designed by the acclaimed architect Frank Folsom Smith, the iconic Beach Terrace building is an architectural gem. This residence is a true standout—meticulously renovated by a designer whose impeccable taste and attention to detail elevate the home well beyond expectation, with a focus on efficient use of space. The result is a move-in-ready retreat where every inch reflects exceptional craftsmanship and thoughtful design. Step inside to discover two walls of wrap-around, floor-to-ceiling impact-rated sliding glass doors that open to three private balconies, expanding the total usable space to 1,284 square feet, immersing you in stunning views of the Gulf’s turquoise waters and legendary white quartz sand. The chef’s kitchen is a masterpiece, featuring Quartzite countertops, custom European cabinetry, high-end stainless steel appliances, and an expansive island that anchors the open-concept living area. The spacious great room, bathed in natural light, includes a custom Murphy bed for overnight guests and provides the perfect setting to enjoy Siesta Key’s radiant sunsets. Every element of this home is designed for comfort and style—from the serene primary suite to the elegant finishes throughout. The primary bathroom reflects a flawless balance of form and function. Featuring European cabinetry, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and spectacular floor-to-ceiling tilework, this serene space exudes modern elegance. Every detail—from the sleek fixtures to the artful tile patterns—has been thoughtfully curated to create a spa-like sanctuary that complements the residence’s sophisticated coastal aesthetic. Additional improvements include a new air conditioning system with updated ductwork, new electrical upgrades, and a new water heater, ensuring comfort and peace of mind for years to come. Within Beach Terrace’s exclusive enclave, residents enjoy the security of a controlled-access lobby, the convenience of an on-site manager, and premium amenities including a heated saltwater pool overlooking the Gulf, fitness center, and community lounge. Step outside and you’re just moments from Siesta Key Village, where you’ll find inviting boutiques, beachside cafés, and vibrant local dining. With the beach at your doorstep, a car becomes optional. And when you crave a touch of city life, downtown Sarasota’s acclaimed cultural scene—restaurants, galleries, opera, ballet, and theaters—is just minutes away across the north bridge. This is more than a residence—it’s a rare opportunity to own a beautifully reimagined piece of paradise, where luxury, location, and lifestyle converge to create an extraordinary beachfront experience on Siesta Key.
