Welcome to the epitome of coastal elegance. This one bed, one bath Kingston Arms condo unit is nestled in the heart of the tropical paradise which is St Armands and Lido Beach. This totally remodeled unit is currently the only opportunity within this highly desirable and iconic building. Just steps away from both the elegance of St Armands Circle and the relaxation of Lido Beach, no detail of this open, bright and airy unit has been overlooked. The roof of entire complex was replaced one year ago, all original property doors are being replaced by modern hurricane impact doors and building's elevators conveniently located, as is the sparkling pool and the cool beach sands of Lido. High impact hurricane windows and heavy-duty impact sliders surround the unit and large crown molding and recessed lighting add to its designer look. Step into a haven of modern sophistication where natural light dances upon gleaming porcelain floors, leading you to an open living area adorned with tasteful finishes and designer touches. During the remodeling, insulated sound deadening material was laid into the walls adding to the peaceful environment. The kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances and granite countertops perfect for culinary creations. Retreat to the serene bedroom sanctuary, offering plush comfort and tranquil ambiance. Outside, a private balcony beckons for morning coffees or evening wine, while the community amenities include a sparkling pool and lush landscaping, providing for a resort-like atmosphere. The new owner will enjoy the best of BOTH worlds here at their new Kingston Arms unit. Jumping on the free Bayrunner will swiftly deliver one to all the vibrancy and excitement downtown Main Street Sarasota has to offer, while returning is equally easy and free. Spend blissful afternoon at the beach or walk and dine at some of the world's most attractive boutiques, spas and restaurants. No need for a vehicle here, although one does enjoy an assigned, covered parking space, a private outdoor storage area and brand-new washers and driers located directly under the unit. This particular unit makes for an excellent permanent residence, a tropical get-away for half the year or a full-on investment rental. With its prime location this captivating Kingston Arms unit presents a rare opportunity for luxurious coastal living that's simply irresistible.
