This stunning TURNKEY FURNISHED, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence at L'Elegance is move-in perfect and showcases a sweeping 39-foot terrace with breathtaking views of South Lido Park, the iconic Ringling Bridge, and the Sarasota skyline. Gleaming new wood-look tile floors flow seamlessly throughout, adding a fresh, modern warmth to every room.
