Don’t miss out on this fantastic opportunity to own a piece of Sarasota’s history or create your dream home in one of the city’s most desirable neighborhoods. Seize the opportunity to restore a 1920s historic home back to its original charm or capitalize on the land’s value to build a custom estate. The existing 1925 main house is full of character and offers a unique opportunity for those with a vision to bring it back to life. Or, if you prefer, you can clear the lot and build a brand-new home tailored to your style and needs. With no HOA or deed restrictions, you have the freedom to design without limits, all while being surrounded by new luxury homes in a rapidly appreciating area. In addition to the main house, the property features a 400 sq. ft. 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom bungalow with a loft, built in 2004—perfect for a guest retreat, rental, or private escape while you work on your dream home. Plus, with short-term rental potential, this property offers great investment opportunities. Located East of the Trail, just minutes from Arlington Park, downtown Sarasota, and the iconic St. Armands Circle, this prime location offers the best of Sarasota living. Enjoy quick access to the Legacy Trail and Sarasota’s vibrant cultural scene. World-class beaches, fine dining, and entertainment are all just a short drive away. The possibilities are endless, and the location can’t be beat.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
