Although Florida is known for its countless high-rise condominium towers built along the beach, few of them offer the unique balance of architectural design, historic preservation, nature conservation, and resort-style amenities that Summer Cove in Siesta Key is known for. This is one of the most exclusive beachfront condominium towers in the Sunshine State, and it is easy to see why.

Summer Cove is unusual in the sense that it consists of two condominium towers of distinct heights. There are 45 large units distributed among the towers; one stands five stories high and the other nine stories. The uneven architecture is modern and very attractive, and it offers a break from the Mediterranean design and imposing high-rises along the beaches of Siesta Key.

The Summer Cove units are very spacious and well-appointed; they start at three bedrooms built on 2,100 square feet of air-conditioned space. The larger ground-floor units feature four bedrooms and 2,571 square of interior space plus 2,742 square feet of terrace, lanai and patio. Pricing starts at $795K all the way to $1.5M for the penthouse units with sweeping views of the Gulf of Mexico on one side and the Little Sarasota Bay on the other side.

Aside from luxury, privacy and security, Summer Cove features a very elegant clubhouse that is part of the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation. The clubhouse includes a fitness center, game room, business center, lounge, full kitchen, and meeting room. Other amenities include a boat launch, private picnic area with mature vegetation, dock space, a swimming pool, and semi-private access to a beach blessed with the whitest sands in the world.

The Stickney Point Bridge connects Summer Cove with Sarasota, where residents will find all suburban comforts in the way of shopping, entertainment and cultural activities. School-age residents are served by Gulf Gate Elementary, McIntosh Middle, Riverview High School and many private academies.
