Don't miss this condo for sale in Condo On The Bay! Auction property. **Private confidential bidding process.** this professionally marketed luxury reserve auction is **not a distressed sale.** it is not a live on-site auction, buyers do not bid against one another, and there is **no auctioneer** calling bids. Buyers are encouraged to schedule private preview appointments, complete inspections and due diligence, then submit one confidential highest-and-best offer before the published deadline. **No buyer premium.** to promote transparency and buyer confidence, the due diligence package includes two independent professional appraisals prepared by two separate state-certified appraisers, providing buyers with objective valuation information before submitting a confidential highest-and-best offer. The appraisals are intended to inform—not determine—the final purchase price. Rather than asking buyers to accept an asking price, this luxury reserve auction invites qualified purchasers to establish market value through informed, confidential highest-and-best offers submitted during the published july bidding period, subject only to the seller's confidential reserve. beyond its innovative purchase process, residence 109 offers luxury features rarely found in sarasota condominium living, including an **elevated private garden terrace**, **soaring 10-foot ceilings**, **no elevator required**, and a **concealed second kitchen / scullery** designed to keep the main waterfront kitchen visually pristine while entertaining.
