Welcome to Lido Beach Club #102. Only two units in this complex are beachfront on the first floor. There are no lobby or elevator hassles for this unit. This first-floor private gulf-front two-bedroom, two-bath Beach home condo has had no flooding since 1974; it's where luxury meets coastal tranquility. This condo offers an unparalleled BEACHY lifestyle, blending elegance, comfort, and breathtaking waterfront views. Fresh paint hues and a massive mirrored wall magnify the high-end finishes in turquoise, blues, greens, and beige coastal charm decor. From the pillow-tile kitchen backsplash and GE Profile appliances, #102 is turnkey furnished; check out the inventory list with three newer Samsung televisions and a multitude of accessories! If you wish to use this property either as a residence or investment property, it is a formula of coastal elegance. The Rental of this property has been solid through most fall and spring seasons. Henredon and Martha Stewart master bedroom furnishings, a scattering of Annie Selke throw rugs, luxe upholstery, two new full beds and chests in the guest room, and a newly remodeled guest bath captivate the decor. Expansive light-filled sliders in the Living and Master bedroom invite you to enjoy the heated Gulf-front pool with private beach access. Your sizable private porch hosts dining and two sunbathing chaises to unwind, watch a spectacular sunset or enjoy your morning coffee. LBC has a fitness room with a sauna to maintain a healthy and fit lifestyle, a community room with a full kitchen off the main lobby, and a beach entrance grilling area. Lido Key's Park is not far off, with bike trails and a kayaking area through mangroves, and on the North side of the key is an Olympic-sized pool and Lido Key blue pavilion complex. Next door to LBC is the Ritz-Carlton Beach Club with a beach bar, and it's a mere 1.2 miles to St. Armands Circle's restaurants, boutiques, and cultural events. Lido Beach Club has the Milestone report, on-site management, and secure keyfob entry to the building and the beach. This community is more than just a place to live; it's a place to thrive! Here, the beauty of the Gulf of Mexico becomes an extension of your home, and every day is a celebration of effortless coastal luxury.
