Description of Property
Welcome to Penthouse #2 at 770 S Palm Avenue in downtown Sarasota—a rarely available top-floor residence in the iconic Embassy House. Perched on the 18th floor, this two-bedroom, two-bath condo offers sweeping, unobstructed views of Sarasota Bay, the John Ringling Bridge, and the Gulf beyond. From this height, you’ll enjoy incredible privacy, no upstairs neighbors, and a daily front-row seat to some of the most breathtaking sunsets and sky color changes Sarasota has to offer. The layout is open and filled with natural light, featuring a practical kitchen, spacious living and dining areas, and a bright sunroom perfect for relaxing, entertaining and soaking in spectacular sunsets. Both bedrooms open onto a private terrace where you can take in morning sunrises and city views. Embassy House is known for its unbeatable bayfront location and strong sense of community. Amenities include a saltwater heated swimming pool, fitness center with bay views, electric car charging station, guest parking, outdoor grill, catering kitchen, and a recently updated modern lobby. Residents also enjoy the convenience of a concierge at the front desk, an on-site manager, and semi-private elevator access—to just two units. A shared laundry room for PH1 and PH2 is maintained by the HOA, along with service and replacement of washers, dryers, and A/C units. The building completed all structural integrity testing and had its roof replaced in 2024. The HOA fee includes cable, internet, water, sewer, and trash pickup—making it an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle.
