Peninsula Sarasota in Golden Gate Point

Pending Sarasota City Commission approval, Golden Gate Point is poised to add 22 more luxury Sarasota Condos. On Wednesday, the city’s Planning Board with little discussion unanimously recommended site plan approval of Peninsula Sarasota, a two-tower condominium development on the 22-acre spit of land known as Golden Gate Point, that juts into Sarasota Bay just east of the Ringling Bridge.Located at 223 and 283 Golden Gate Point, Peninsula Sarasota is planned to include eight units in one tower at one unit per floor and 15 in the other with three units per floor, all ranging from approximately 2,500 to 3,000 square feet.

The project was originally planned for 24 units. One condo was removed to create a 3,000-square-foot amenity space on the second floor of the larger building. The entire project will occupy 0.99 acres.

Consultant Joel Freedman, representing developer Gault Family Cos, told planning board members that while the project lends the appearance of two separate but architecturally matching buildings, Peninsula Sarasota will be be a single building with a parking podium connecting the two towers.

“We’re proposing using the RMF-5 (Residential Multiple Family) zoning district, so we’re not requiring any variances or anything like that,” Freedman said. “We held a voluntary community workshop on Dec. 8, 2021, and we got a lot of good feedback from the community.”Chris Gallagher of Hoyt Architects, the designer of the project, told the board that Peninsula Sarasota exceeds the required 46 parking spaces by five. Separating the project into two, eight-story towers rather than a single building, he said, provides added value to the residents.

“The advantage this gave to us was it just created more light and it gave more views,” he said. “It’s got a pool at the base of the bigger tower and a common room and a gym. And then we also have some rooftop decks for watching the sunset over Lido.”

Priced from $2 Million, the demand is high for this centrally located, yet secluded lifestyle. For more information or to schedule an appointment, visit PeninsulaSarasota.com or call 941-330-0558.
