Lido Key

Nestled just north of world-renowned St. Armand’s Circle, Lido Shores is surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico, Sarasota Bay and New Pass. This picturesque locale provides the perfect backdrop for dramatic, upscale homes created by some of Sarasota’s most talented architects and designers. The area has attracted artists and intellectuals, as well as successful entrepreneurs. Many of the homes on the Gulf are now being sold, remodeled or replaced, as are some bayside homes with their views of the Sarasota skyline. Deed-restricted, the area offers its own private beach, accessible only to homeowners of Lido Shores.
St. Armand’s is a lovely, eclectic neighborhood that revolves around the world-famous shopping destination of St. Armand’s Circle. Beautiful Lido Beach and the Circle’s terrific restaurants and upscale boutiques are just a short stroll or bike ride away. Originally platted by the most colorful developer in the history of Sarasota, circus magnate John Ringling, St. Armand’s Circle retains a good bit of his razzle-dazzle. On a Saturday night, tourists and locals alike line up outside the ice cream shops, and wait for exquisite sunsets. Older canal-front homes on the quiet, side streets are being snapped up for the land value alone. This is a great community and a backbone of the Sarasota cultural life.
