301 QUAY COMMONS UNIT 1709

PRICE REDUCTION! OVER $250K IN DESIGNER UPGRADES! STUNNING DESIGNER CONDO WITH PANORAMIC WATER VIEWS | 17TH FLOOR | DOWNTOWN SARASOTA: Experience elevated coastal luxury in this professionally designed condo located on the 17th floor in the heart of Downtown Sarasota, just steps from the vibrant Quay Harbor. With sweeping, partial views of Sarasota Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, this residence was transformed in just 18 weeks from a blank canvas into a breathtaking, design-forward home. | From the moment you enter, you're greeted by a striking onyx and gold Italian porcelain tile foyer with raised gold detailing — a stunning introduction to the level of craftsmanship and detail found throughout. Each wall has received two coats of premium paint and is adorned with distinctive, HIGH-QUALITY EUROPEAN WALL COVERINGS that lend texture and a timeless elegance. Every room is thoughtfully curated with a neutral color palette that enhances the light, complements the views, and creates a cohesive sense of calm and sophistication. | The chef’s kitchen is both sleek and refined, boasting European cabinetry, quartz countertops, a Jenn-Air appliance suite, and a hand-cut CARRARA MARBLE AND MOTHER-OF-PEARL backsplash imported from Italy. Oak wood batten board detailing on the kitchen island flows seamlessly into the adjacent den, reinforcing the design’s intentional flow. | Every element has been thoughtfully selected, from the imported European light fixtures, chandeliers, and tile to the luxurious décor. The dining area is crowned by a showstopping chandelier adorned with 700 INDIVIDUALLY HANDSET SWAROVSKI CRYSTALS, casting a soft, radiant light that reflects off three 6-foot custom mirrors and enhances the 10-foot ceilings. | Electric shades in the Great Room, primary suite, and second bedroom provide convenience and privacy at the touch of a button. The Great Room is designed for comfort and entertainment, it currently features a reclining leather sectional and a smart media setup with a sound bar, subwoofer, Sonos speakers, and Alexa-enabled voice-command remotes. Should the new owner decide to keep things simple, furnishings mentioned are available to purchase separately. | Both the primary and secondary bedrooms include custom-designed shelving and drawer systems, providing optimal organization and maximizing storage without sacrificing elegance. The primary bath features a luxurious soaking tub—a rare feature in floor plans at BAYSO—perfect for unwinding in total relaxation. All shower floors have been expertly grouted and sealed for lasting durability. | Custom-designed outdoor furnishings and accessories (available for purchase separately) were delivered in December 2024 and January 2025, complete this refined, move-in-ready home. | Residents of this luxury building enjoy world-class amenities, including a state-of-the-art fitness center, resort-style pool, dog park, and more.

Value check

Is the price right?

The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
