Enjoy effortless island living from this “hidden gem” location directly behind St Armands Circle, just a short walk to Lido Key Beach, and over Ringling bridge from downtown Sarasota. This rarely available, first floor condo at Kingston Arms, has been fully renovated with meticulous attention to detail throughout. With 2-bedrooms and 2-full baths, it’s the perfect year-round retreat, getaway for your next beach vacation, or rental investment. As you enter the condo, the open living-dining room plan is filled with light from the expansive glass sliding doors that lead to the screened lanai, surrounded by lush, tropical landscaping. The kitchen and both bathrooms have been beautifully updated, with thoughtful finishes including gorgeous new counters, cabinetry, appliances, and tile in both showers (2018). Custom blinds, fresh paint and large neutral tiles laid on the diagonal throughout, make the rooms feel spacious and bright. The king-sized primary suite boasts a custom walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom. The guest bedroom features a custom built-in bed, built-in desk, and spacious custom closet. Additional upgrades include a new A/C and Wifi thermostat, electrical panel expanded with GFI, recessed LED lighting throughout, and new porch fan (2021). In addition, a convenient brand new in-unit laundry with Bosch Washer & Dryer, whole house water filtration system, water heater, and Wifi controlled keyless entry added in 2022. One covered parking space is included. When you are not using the condo yourself, Kingston Arms has a flexible rental policy, so you can let your guests enjoy the St. Armand’s lifestyle, while you enjoy the extra income.
