A Rare Penthouse Opportunity at BAYSO Sarasota

Residence 1903 occupies the highest residential level of BAYSO, creating a sense of elevation, privacy, and exclusivity that is difficult to duplicate in Downtown Sarasota. From this remarkable position, the residence captures multiple perspectives of the city and surrounding waterfront.

Looking east, expansive views stretch across Downtown Sarasota. To the north, Sarasota Bay provides an impressive waterfront backdrop, while a western glimpse toward The Quay Yacht Harbor adds another distinctive perspective. The result is a residence where the views are constantly changing throughout the day, from bright morning skies to the lights of Downtown Sarasota after sunset.

This elevated position also creates a remarkable sense of privacy. With 12 foot ceilings throughout the residence and expansive floor to ceiling windows, Residence 1903 feels open, airy, and exceptionally connected to its surroundings.

Two Private Terraces Create Two Distinct Outdoor Experiences

One of the most compelling features of Residence 1903 is the inclusion of two completely separate private terraces. Rather than treating outdoor space as an afterthought, this residence provides two distinct environments for enjoying the Sarasota lifestyle.

The terrace adjoining the Great Room creates an ideal setting for entertaining. It provides a natural extension of the main living area and allows residents to move effortlessly between indoor and outdoor spaces when hosting family and friends.

The second terrace is accessed directly from the primary suite and offers a much more private experience. It becomes a personal retreat above the city, providing an ideal setting for a quiet morning, an evening glass of wine, or simply taking in the surrounding views.

This separation between the entertaining terrace and the private primary suite terrace is an especially appealing feature for buyers who value both entertaining and personal space.

Designed for Sophisticated Living and Entertaining

The interior of Residence 1903 has been thoughtfully designed around the way modern luxury buyers want to live. The open layout creates a natural connection between the Great Room, dining area, kitchen, and social spaces while maintaining a sense of distinction between each area.

The Great Room is an impressive focal point of the residence, enhanced by distinctive chandelier lighting and expansive windows that bring the surrounding Sarasota landscape into the interior. The combination of soaring ceilings, natural light, and generous proportions creates an atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and comfortable.

The dining and social areas continue the home's emphasis on entertaining. Whether hosting an intimate dinner or a larger gathering, the residence provides the space and flexibility necessary to entertain with ease.

The kitchen is equally impressive, featuring stainless steel JennAir appliances, European cabinetry by Italkraft, and a large island with seating for up to four. Linear pendant lighting adds a contemporary architectural element while providing focused illumination above the island.

A dedicated dry bar with a wine refrigerator adds another layer of convenience and sophistication. It can function as an elegant cocktail station when entertaining or as a beautifully organized coffee bar for everyday use.

A Private Primary Suite

The primary suite is designed as a private sanctuary separated from the social spaces of the residence. Generous proportions, an oversized walk in closet, and access to the private terrace create a retreat that feels distinctly removed from the activity of the rest of the home.

The ensuite bathroom continues the residence’s sophisticated approach to design with a deep soaking tub and a separate shower and water closet. Frosted glass doors provide additional privacy while maintaining the clean contemporary aesthetic.

Throughout the bedrooms, blackout curtains and ceiling fans provide additional comfort and convenience. These practical details complement the elevated finishes and architectural features found throughout the residence.

Three Bedrooms Plus a Flexible Den

Residence 1903 provides three bedrooms along with a dedicated den, giving the home flexibility for a variety of lifestyles. The den can serve as a private home office, library, media room, creative space, or additional personal retreat depending on the needs of the homeowner.

For buyers who work remotely or frequently host family and guests, having additional flexible space can be an important consideration. The residence provides the scale necessary to accommodate everyday living without compromising the open and elegant character of the main living areas.

Three Parking Spaces in Downtown Sarasota

Adding to the rarity of Residence 1903 are three dedicated parking spaces. In a premier Downtown Sarasota condominium, parking is an important consideration, particularly for buyers who maintain multiple vehicles or frequently have guests.

Having three parking spaces provides a level of convenience that complements the overall exclusivity of this penthouse residence. It is another example of the thoughtful details that distinguish Residence 1903 from a typical downtown condominium.

Life at BAYSO Sarasota

The experience of Residence 1903 extends well beyond the private residence. BAYSO Sarasota offers an elevated collection of amenities designed to complement the lifestyle of its residents.

The fifth floor resort deck provides a spectacular setting for relaxation and socializing. Residents can enjoy a heated pool and spa, an expansive sun terrace with chaise lounges, a fire pit, outdoor grills, and an outdoor shower surrounded by lush landscaping.

The building also offers a dog park and dog washing station, adding everyday convenience for residents with pets. The Club Room provides an elegant environment for entertaining and socializing, including resident wine tastings, card games, and community events.

Additional amenities include a state of the art fitness center, boardroom, private offices, and 24 hour reception. Together, these amenities create a residential experience that combines the privacy of a luxury condominium with many of the services and conveniences associated with a sophisticated resort lifestyle.

The Quay Sarasota Lifestyle

Location is one of the defining advantages of BAYSO Sarasota. Situated within The Quay, Residence 1903 places residents in the center of one of Downtown Sarasota’s most exciting waterfront districts.

The Quay continues to evolve as a destination for dining, entertainment, shopping, waterfront experiences, and luxury residential living. The location makes it possible to enjoy much of what Downtown Sarasota has to offer without relying on a car for every outing.

A morning walk through The Bay, coffee downtown, time on the water from Marina Jack, shopping and dining at The Quay, or an afternoon at Lido Beach can all become part of everyday life.

For those who appreciate Sarasota’s cultural scene, the location also provides convenient access to the city’s renowned arts, entertainment, dining, and cultural destinations. The combination of waterfront surroundings and urban convenience is one of the reasons The Quay has become such a sought after address.

A New Standard of Luxury at BAYSO

BAYSO Sarasota has established itself as one of Downtown Sarasota’s premier contemporary condominium buildings. Completed in 2023, the 18 story tower features 149 residences and was designed around modern luxury, exceptional amenities, and the advantages of its location within The Quay.

Residence 1903 represents the uppermost expression of that lifestyle. As one of only seven penthouse residences in the building, it offers a level of rarity that extends beyond the impressive interior finishes.

The combination of the highest residential level, 12 foot ceilings, 2,851 square feet of living space, two private terraces, panoramic views, three parking spaces, and an exceptional amenity package creates an opportunity that is genuinely difficult to replicate.
