A gem! Breathtaking bay views – in the chic heart of downtown. This condo overlooks the most spectacular portion of Sarasota Bay – head-on,without obstruction,midway between Selby Gardens and Marina Jack. Realtors comment that the views are unparalleled even by multi-million dollar properties. They surpass,in beauty and breadth,luxury suites at the Ritz Carlton. They’re more entrancing than pricey oceanfront condos where you see only the open sea.
