About this home
99 SUNSET DRIVE UNIT 401
Sweeping Sarasota Bay views, exceptional living space, and one of downtown Sarasota’s most coveted waterfront locations come together in this beautifully updated residence at Lawrence Pointe. Positioned directly on the bay, this true three-bedroom home spans nearly 3,000 square feet and captures breathtaking water views from its expansive living spaces, while its prized location places the best of downtown Sarasota just moments from your door. Two under-building parking spaces and separate storage add to the convenience of this exceptional bayfront offering. A gracious foyer introduces the spacious, light-filled interior, where oversized tile flooring, crown molding, plantation shutters, and walls of glass create an effortless flow throughout the main living areas. The generous living and dining rooms are designed around the waterfront, with expansive views providing a dramatic backdrop for both everyday living and entertaining. Impact-rated windows and sliding glass doors, replaced in 2017, add peace of mind while maximizing natural light and the remarkable bayfront setting. The gourmet kitchen is equally impressive, featuring custom natural-wood cabinetry, quartz countertops and backsplash, stainless steel appliances, abundant storage, and an oversized breakfast bar. Open to the family room, the kitchen maintains a direct connection to Sarasota Bay, allowing water views to remain part of daily life. A nearby bar with wine refrigeration enhances the home’s entertaining appeal. Two direct bayfront terraces adjoining the main living areas have been enclosed, creating versatile, all-weather spaces that bring you even closer to the water while expanding the opportunities for lounging, dining, and entertaining. Walls of glass and streamlined glass railings preserve the panoramic views across Sarasota Bay, creating the feeling of living directly above the water. The spacious primary suite offers a private retreat with beautiful wood flooring, oversized windows, a walk-in closet with custom organization, and its own balcony overlooking downtown Sarasota. The renovated en-suite bath is finished with granite and offers generous space and storage. A second bedroom features hardwood flooring and a private en-suite bath, while the third bedroom is currently configured (pictured as) a formal dining room, the dedicated home office with custom built-in desk and shelving, provides flexibility without sacrificing bedroom space. Designed by celebrated Sarasota architect Tim Seibert, Lawrence Pointe is an intimate gated waterfront community of only 40 residences, tucked at the end of a private cul-de-sac shared with The Ritz-Carlton. Residents enjoy on-site management, clubhouse amenities, and a waterfront swimming pool surrounded by a Travertine-tiled deck and grilling area overlooking Sarasota Bay. The location is difficult to match. Step outside and enjoy easy access to Sarasota’s downtown waterfront, The Bay, Marina Jack, Main Street restaurants and boutiques, the Sarasota Farmers Market, theaters, galleries, and the city’s renowned arts and cultural destinations. St. Armands Circle and Lido Beach are just across the Ringling Bridge, while Longboat Key and Sarasota’s celebrated Gulf Coast beaches are also within easy reach. This Lawrence Pointe residence presents an extraordinary opportunity to enjoy the very best of Sarasota city and coastal living.

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.
