Aqua, A Unique Boutique Condo on the Sarasota Waterfront

In the past several months demand for ultra high-end condominiums has come roaring back in Sarasota. In fact it is beginning to look as though the "construction crane" is coming out of hiding after several years and is poised to once again become the unofficial bird of southwestern Florida.

Among the new luxury condo developments breaking ground this year here in Sarasota will be Aqua to be constructed on the waterfront at 280 Golden Gate Point. Aqua will join One88, also being built on Golden Gate Point, the Jewel Residences at Gulfstream Avenue and Main Street, the Vue Sarasota Bay at 100 South Washington Blvd, and the Sansara at 300 South Pineapple Ave. in a recent burst of new luxury condominium developments breaking ground this spring in Sarasota.

Aqua will have only 8 units within a modern 9-story building in the iconic Sarasota School of Architecture style. With a full-time concierge, state-of-the-art security and luxurious amenities, Aqua, in the words of its developers, "will reflect a refined and elegant lifestyle of gracious Downtown Sarasota waterfront living."

The eight residences will each have their own private elevator foyer, two-car garage and a dedicated boat slip. Each opulent residence will feature 10 to 12 foot ceilings, spacious open floor plans for entertaining, gourmet kitchens with granite and stone counter tops and top-of-the-line appliances, master bedroom suites with unique features, and large exterior terraces for breathtaking views of sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico.

The eight residences will share a state-of-the-art fitness studio, private massage/facial salon, spa with steam shower and sauna, yoga studio, heated waterfront infinity pool and putting green, a temperature-controlled wine room with secure individual cabinets, and a delightful rooftop entertaining and observation area. There will only residence per floor. The 3,800 square foot units, called “Residences,” have pre-construction prices starting at $3,495,000 while the 6,700 square foot units, called “Grand Residences,” will start at $5,695,000.

Located on the prestigious Golden Gate Point, the residences at Aqua will be just steps from Downtown Sarasota with all its restaurants, shops, theaters and galleries and just a short drive across the John Ringling Bridge to the renowned shopping and dining mecca at St. Armand’s Circle and the white sand beaches on Lido Key.

Sarasota Magazine reported, "these new condos on Golden Gate Point have a real Sarasota look, a little bit of Sarasota School of Architecture modernist, a little bit of Miami Tropical, and a whole lot of over-the-top luxury pared down to the most elegant simplicity."
