Rising prominently along the iconic waterfront of Bayshore Boulevard, The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Tampa – Tower II sets a new benchmark for sophisticated waterfront living, overlooking the serene waters of Hillsborough Bay. Recently completed, this exceptional tower stands among Tampa’s most prestigious residential addresses, offering refined architecture, remarkable privacy, and the world-renowned service synonymous with The Ritz-Carlton. Residence 2402 is offered unfurnished and presents a rare opportunity for those seeking an exceptional waterfront residence, with flexible six-month rental terms available. It also offers a rare opportunity to own one of the building’s most sought-after layouts—the coveted “02” residence—an exclusive floor plan that sold out immediately upon release. Positioned on the 24th floor, the home captures expansive eastern views across the open bay and the downtown Tampa skyline. From vibrant sunrises over the water to glowing western sunsets in the evening, the residence enjoys an ever-changing panorama of sky and waterfront throughout the day. Spanning approximately 1,960 square feet, the residence has been thoughtfully designed to balance elegance with comfort. The floor plan includes two generously sized bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, and a versatile den that can easily serve as a home office or optional third bedroom with access to a full bath. Ten-foot ceilings and expansive floor-to-ceiling glass walls flood the interiors with natural light while seamlessly connecting the indoor living spaces to the private terrace. A private elevator entry welcomes you into an elegant foyer that sets the tone for the residence’s refined interior. The gourmet kitchen features sleek quartz countertops, custom Italian cabinetry by ItalKraft, and a premium appliance package from Sub-Zero and Wolf. The suite includes a Wolf induction cooktop, Asko dishwasher, under-cabinet Sub-Zero refrigeration, and a beverage refrigerator, creating a space that is both highly functional and beautifully designed for entertaining. Further enhancing the residence is the Platinum Technology Package, which includes pre-wiring for a complete integrated sound system with speakers, sound bars, and subwoofers, along with motorized electronic window shades that provide effortless control of light and privacy throughout the home. Additional highlights include spacious walk-in closets, elegant Kohler fixtures, and a full-size Electrolux washer and dryer. Every detail has been carefully selected to create a residence that blends modern sophistication with the comfort and convenience expected from one of Tampa’s most prestigious luxury addresses.
