Located on the seventh floor of the coveted North Tower, this fully renovated residence captures sweeping 180-degree views of the Gulf of Mexico, Sarasota Bay and downtown Sarasota. Eastern and western exposures offer breathtaking sunrises and spectacular Gulf sunsets.

A breakfast nook, formal dining area, spacious living room and adjacent den provide flexibility for intimate gatherings or large-scale entertaining.
The split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy for owners and guests. Occupying its own expansive wing, the primary suite features water views, a generous walk-in closet and separate his-and-hers bathrooms connected by a shared shower.
