Description

This beautifully updated Lido Key condo offers the ease of move-in-ready living just steps from the beach. Thoughtfully remodeled in 2019, the residence features wood-plank tile flooring, custom cabinetry, stone countertops, updated finishes, and a wraparound balcony that extends the living space outdoors. Major improvements add even more value, including newer impact windows and sliding glass doors, an A/C system replaced in 2022, and an electric tankless water heater—updates that make a difference in both comfort and everyday living. Lido Towers offers the flexibility of monthly rentals, is pet-friendly for pets up to 25 lbs., and includes deeded beach access. St. Armands Circle is nearby for dining, shopping, and an evening out, while the beach is close enough to make it part of your daily routine. Whether you’re looking for a winter escape, a full-time Lido Key home, or a property with rental flexibility, this one offers a combination that can be hard to find. Call me to schedule a private tour.
