301 Quay Commons #1707, Sarasota, Florida
List Price: $1,499,000
MLS Number: TB8459345

This is a condo that gets the details right -- the ones that actually matter once you're living there. From the 17th floor, you're high enough to clear neighboring buildings, including the Hyatt, which means open views, real sunsets, and clear sightlines over the marina. Fireworks reflect off the water during events, and the evenings feel noticeably quieter than many nearby residences. One of the underrated advantages of this unit is what you don't hear. Unlike other condos in the area, it's positioned away from the loud rooftop and mechanical systems of neighboring buildings, including the Ritz-Carlton. The result is a space that feels calm, even though you're in the middle of everything. Inside, the layout is clean and functional, with motorized shades in the main living areas and bedrooms to make privacy and light effortless. The kitchen has been thoughtfully upgraded with a custom backsplash and a built-in wine fridge -- practical improvements that you use every day. The condo also includes two dedicated parking spaces, a meaningful advantage in this part of downtown where many units only have one. Location-wise, it's hard to beat. You're walking distance to downtown Sarasota restaurants, steps from the waterfront, close to the marina, and an easy walk to the bridge. The surrounding neighborhood -- anchored by the Ritz-Carlton Residences -- adds a level of stability and prestige that carries through the entire area. This is a place for someone who wants the benefits of downtown living without the tradeoffs that usually come with it.
