About this home
Set high above the sand on the seventh floor of Orchid Beach Club, this executive Lido Key beach residence showcases sweeping Gulf-to-bay and downtown Sarasota views the moment you step inside. Designed for elevated coastal living, the nearly 3,000-square-foot layout offers three bedrooms, three full baths, private elevator access, turnkey furnishings option available, and multiple terraces that create a true indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
A residents-only elevator opens directly into your private lobby, where double iron filigree doors reveal a sophisticated interior filled with natural light. High cove ceilings with inset lighting, custom millwork, wood paneling, motorized window treatments, and thoughtfully updated finishes establish a sense of modern elegance throughout the home. Walls of impact glass capture unobstructed Gulf, bay, and city vistas, enhancing every living space.
At the heart of the residence, the gourmet kitchen blends design with function, offering quartz countertops, sleek cabinetry, an island with seating, breakfast bar, and top-tier Bosch and Dacor appliances—including a six-burner gas range and warming drawer. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the great room and dining area, creating an ideal setting for hosting or relaxed everyday living.
The Gulf-front primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, complete with terrace access, two walk-in closets, and a beautifully renovated bath with marble-inspired finishes, dual vanities, soaking tub, and large shower. Two private guest suites—positioned in a split layout—provide comfortable accommodations for visitors, including one with terrace access and another with its own secluded balcony.
Three terraces extend the living experience outdoors. The expansive bay-facing terrace offers a full summer kitchen with new (2024) built-in gas grill, large dining area, and generous seating space—perfect for sunset dinners or morning coffee overlooking the water. The Gulf-facing terrace is reserved for the primary suite and third bedroom, while the second guest suite enjoys its own private balcony.
Orchid Beach Club is an exclusive Gulf-front community of only 54 residences, known for concierge-level service and resort-style amenities. Residents enjoy a secure building, 24-hour gated entrance, attentive concierge staff, and a beautifully appointed clubhouse with social room, library, billiards, catering kitchen, and lounge. The wellness center includes a fitness facility, sauna, spa room, and massage services. Outdoors, the Gulf-side pool and spa are surrounded by a spacious sun deck, with direct access to a private stretch of Lido Beach’s soft sands and turquoise water.
Ideally situated near St. Armands Circle, Longboat Key, and downtown Sarasota, the location offers immediate access to fine dining, boutique shopping, theaters, galleries, boating marinas, and cultural venues including the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall and Sarasota Opera House. With world-class amenities, coastal scenery, and a premier waterfront address, this Orchid Beach Club residence delivers the best of Lido Key living.
