When the Kolter Group complete The Mark condominium tower in 2019, the renowned luxury developer really made its mark on the Downtown Sarasota real estate market. The innovative design of The Mark, which looks like an upscale Miami Beach resort, extends beyond its architectural style; this boutique condominium is one of the most pedestrian-friendly communities of Sarasota, and it offers everything from concierge service to cafes and boutiques on the ground floor.

The Mark is not an imposing condo tower, but it does stand out as part of the Sarasota skyline thanks to its striking design, which includes artistic murals on the ground level and pastel motifs all around the outside of the building. This exquisite design extends to the floor plans of all units; wall-to-wall glass can be found in the living rooms, bedrooms, and wraparound balconies that provide sweeping views of the downtown districts. Some penthouse units even provide glimpses of the Sarasota Bay.

Most units at The Mark offer two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and at least 1,500 square feet of interior; one such unit on the ninth floor was listed at $1,095,000 in September 2021. You can clearly see the value appreciation of these properties when you consider that they were listed below $900K when sales started. The penthouse units typically offer three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a guest restroom, but they are not listed very often. In fact, out of the 157 units at The Mark, less than two dozen have changed ownership since 2019.

The boutique condo lifestyle of The Mark provides residents and their guests with top-notch amenities such as a swimming pool, rooftop lounge, fire pit, café, gym, a spa, and valet parking. A Whole Foods plus the Sarasota Farmers Market are just two blocks away, and you can walk to most arts and culture landmarks such as the Sarasota Opera House, Bayfront Park, the Florida Studio Theater, and many more. The Mark is surrounded by fine-dining restaurants and trendy bistros. The beaches at Longboat Key are just a bike ride away.
