About this home
There are few addresses in downtown Sarasota that offer the prestige, service, and lifestyle of The Ritz-Carlton Tower Residences. Thoughtfully renovated throughout, this sophisticated residence offers the rare opportunity to enjoy that experience immediately as few other residences offer. A private elevator opens directly into the residence, where expansive sliders and windows frame sweeping views across the Downtown Sarasota skyline and Marina Jack. Recent updates have created a home that feels fresh, refined, and timeless, delivering the comfort and finish of a much newer residence while preserving the generous proportions that have long made this building so desirable. One of the residence's greatest strengths is its exceptionally well-designed floor plan. The spacious primary suite is privately positioned, creating a true retreat with a generous re-imagined bathroom featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and abundant closet space. The new kitchen enjoys an open connection to the living spaces while remaining thoughtfully positioned to complement the home's entertaining areas. A generous terrace, accessible from multiple rooms, extends the living space outdoors and provides the perfect setting to enjoy the ever-changing views over Marina Jack and the downtown skyline. Guest rooms offer comfort and privacy for family and visitors alike or the flexibility of an additional office space. Ownership at The Ritz-Carlton is defined by an exceptional level of service, with 24-hour concierge, attentive staff, exceptional security, elevated resort-style amenities, and optional access to the adjacent Ritz-Carlton Hotel. Perfectly positioned just moments from Sarasota's waterfront, acclaimed restaurants, boutiques, galleries, the Ringling Bridge, and performing arts venues, this residence combines a beautifully updated interior, outstanding floor plan, sweeping views, and one of the city's most sought-after locations.
