2 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ Broadway Promenade SubDv. ⋅ 34236 Zip Code

Imagine Trading Winter for Sarasota - Imagine a January morning when there is no windshield to scrape or heavy coat waiting by the door. Instead, you step outside into a warm Sarasota morning and decide whether the day begins with coffee downtown, a workout, pickleball or a walk along the waterfront. That is life at Broadway Promenade, whether one chooses this property for an oasis getaway, or a perfectly delightful full time residence. This beautifully updated 2 bedroom, 2 bath residence offering 1,084 square feet is more than a Sarasota home. It is a place to escape to, return to and perhaps, eventually, never want to leave. Bright, open and inviting, the residence features a comfortable floor plan equally suited to everyday living and entertaining. The split bedroom design provides privacy for owners and guests, making it ideal as a full time residence or seasonal Sarasota retreat. Step onto the covered balcony overlooking the landscaped courtyard, mature greenery and fountain, and mornings become a little slower and evening glasses of wine seem to last a little longer. A particularly valuable downtown luxury comes with the residence: two assigned and deeded garage parking spaces (#142, #456 - a large benefit), along with additional storage just down the hall for beach chairs, bicycles, golf clubs and everything that accompanies the Florida lifestyle. Broadway Promenade surrounds you with resort style amenities including a heated pool and spa, fitness center, sauna, library, billiards room, community room, outdoor kitchen and grilling areas, beautifully maintained common spaces, 24 hour concierge service and security. Community guest accommodations provide additional convenience when family and friends come to visit. Then there is the location. Pioneer Park and its public tennis, pickleball and basketball courts are just outside your door, with Publix conveniently simply steps away. Downtown Sarasota's acclaimed restaurants, cafés, boutiques, galleries, theaters and Farmers Market are all within easy reach. Just moments away is The Bay, Sarasota's extraordinary 53 acre waterfront park, offering walking trails, gardens, kayak launches, performance spaces and year round events along Sarasota Bay. The Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall and Sarasota's celebrated waterfront are also nearby. For those coming from Northern climes, perhaps the greatest luxury is simply the change in rhythm. Winter coats give way to sandals. Snow covered sidewalks become waterfront walking paths. Weekends spent indoors become mornings beside the pool, afternoons enjoying Sarasota and evenings deciding which downtown restaurant to try next. And should the time come to head north, simply lock the door and go. No lawn waiting to be maintained and no private pool demanding attention while you are hundreds of miles away. It is the freedom that makes condominium living so appealing to seasonal owners, combined with the space, parking, storage and amenities that allow this residence to work equally well as a full time Sarasota home.

4 Beds ⋅ 4 Baths ⋅ Golden Gate Point SubDv. ⋅ 34236 Zip Code

One of the Last Remaining Legacy Properties on Golden Gate Point | Rare Trophy Ownership, Redevelopment & Strategic Hold Opportunity A truly rare offering in one of Sarasota’s most exclusive and rapidly evolving luxury enclaves. With no true single-family homes currently remaining on Golden Gate Point and only a small handful of original legacy properties left, 161 Golden Gate Point represents one of the final opportunities to control a meaningful piece of “old Golden Gate” before the peninsula is fully transformed. Positioned in the heart of downtown Sarasota, across from the Ritz-Carlton and adjacent to Marina Jack, the property currently consists of a fully updated Four-unit building featuring newer central A/Cs, five-piece stainless kitchens, quartz countertops, new roof (2025), separate electrical meters, gated courtyards, hot tub, and gazebo — offering immediate usability and meaningful interim income while future plans are explored. Located within the City of Sarasota weekly vacation rental zone, this creates a rare opportunity not commonly found in downtown Sarasota — operate the property similarly to a boutique hotel. For the visionary buyer, this may represent a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create what could become Golden Gate Point’s only true single-family estate — a one-of-one trophy residence in the heart of downtown Sarasota. The property also presents compelling redevelopment potential. Golden Gate Point benefits from alternative development standards intended to support a more urban, pedestrian-friendly environment, including reduced setbacks, increased building coverage allowances, and flexible dimensional standards — enhancing redevelopment possibilities in this highly sought-after peninsula location. Similar RMF-5 sites on Golden Gate Point have supported boutique luxury residential concepts, while the adjacent rear assemblage totaling approximately 21,600 SF is also available, creating a rare opportunity for a larger strategic assemblage in one of Sarasota’s most supply-constrained luxury micro-markets. 161 also represents a compelling long-term hold opportunity. As Golden Gate Point continues its luxury transformation — and remaining legacy properties disappear — the opportunity to control irreplaceable downtown Sarasota land becomes increasingly rare. Just moments to Marina Jack, downtown Sarasota dining, St. Armands Circle, Lido Beach, and Sarasota’s transformative bayfront destination, The Bay. Whether envisioned as: • Rare short-term rental building where you control the entire property • One of Golden Gate Point’s final legacy holdings • A future one-of-one single-family estate • A boutique luxury redevelopment site • A strategic assemblage opportunity • A family office or long-term scarcity hold • Or a rare downtown Sarasota land play with meaningful interim income potential …opportunities of this nature are becoming increasingly difficult to replicate.
