800 TAMIAMI TRAIL #1603

Perched high above Sarasota Bay with breathtaking bay views, this two-story luxury penthouse at Alinari feels like a private sanctuary in the sky where New York loft style meets the beauty and energy of Florida's most cultured coastal city. A perfect winter getaway or full-time home, this architectural masterpiece was completely redesigned and reimagined in 2020-2023 by leading architect Yehuda Inbar and custom builder Yoder Homes and fuses architectural drama with coastal ease. A soaring 20-foot atrium fills the open plan with natural light, framing dazzling and protected water views of the Bay, Bayfront Park and the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall just across the street. Polished concrete, Caesarstone quartz, and fine Ceramiche D'Arte porcelain floors set a modern tone, softened by custom draperies and curated furnishings that invite lingering afternoons and golden sunsets. The 2500 square-foot, 2/3 bedroom, 3.5 bath floor plan features a chef's kitchen, statement staircase, and loft-style layout which recalls a Manhattan gallery, while the upper-level primary suite offers a serene retreat with spa-like bath.  Smart-home features, cutting edge Integrity Sound audio system, Dimplex fireplace, electric shades, and turnkey interiors with premium furnishings from Clive Daniel, Natuzzi, Soft Square and Light Up Your Life complete a space made for effortless sophistication. Open the sliders to your private balcony and and savor gentle bay breezes while taking in the picturesque surroundings. Alinari's resort amenities elevate everyday living with a resort-length pool, heated spa, yoga and fitness studios, saunas, wine cellar, theater, social and billiards lounges, guest suites, 24/7concierge/security, and 2 spaces in the secure garage parking. Available separately, a private poolside cabana one of only ten adds an intimate escape with kitchenette and direct pool access, perfect for entertaining or quiet retreat. Set 16 feet above sea level in a protected X-flood zone and steps from the signature 53-acre Bayfront Park and Sarasota's vibrant dining arts, and cultural offerings, this penthouse embodies cultured coastal living at its most graceful, artful, uplifting, and one of a kind.
