First Lido was the first condo complex on Lido Beach. It’s a friendly, relaxed community consisting of 56 total condos, 16 of which are villas. Many of the units are owned by second generation, so rarely do they come on the market, and are highly prized. The current long term owners of #15 took the villa down to the studs. All interior walls and ceilings were removed, new drywall, insulation, plumbing, door frames and paint. Hurricane resistant windows were installed. The light and bright villa is one of the closest to the beach, and has been beautifully updated with an open, free flowing floor plan of space and function. It’s being sold fully furnished with many custom pieces included(the dining table from Copenhagen expands from a table of 4 to 8). The kitchen has Quartzite counters and a combination of white shaker cabinets and Aspen Oak cabinets on the large Island/breakfast bar. Top of the line appliances include Subzero, Wolf, and Bosch. The Primary bedroom has built-in cabinetry, and a walk-in closet. The guest bedroom has an attractive Murphy bed that can be a bookshelf, desk area, or bed. That room opens to the Florida room with a sofa sleeper, and a custom stained glass French door leading out to the living area. Both bathrooms are modern, sleek, and functional. A shoji sliding barn door leads to the laundry room which holds an all in one washer/dryer, tankless hot water heater, and more storage space. The AC was new in 2023, and has a Geofence thermostat to keep you comfortable but also save energy and money. Neighbors gather at the Sun deck at sunset for cocktails, and there is always someone to chat with at the pool. South Lido Park is close by for kayaking, and St. Armands Circle is not far away for dining and shopping.
