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.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
