About this home

Spacious and versatile 2,700± sq. ft. block home situated on a large double corner lot in one of Sarasota's most desirable family-friendly neighborhoods. A standout feature of this property is its walking-distance access to highly sought-after A-rated schools, making it an exceptional choice for families seeking top-tier education and convenience. This well-maintained home features a new roof (2025), 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a dedicated office, and a private mother-in-law suite with separate entrance—ideal for extended family, guests, a home business, or potential rental income. The property remained high and dry and offers the freedom of no deed restrictions, providing ample room for boats, RVs, and recreational vehicles. The oversized double corner lot offers endless possibilities, including room for a pool, outdoor entertaining, or future expansion. An added bonus is the property's potential development opportunity. Subject to Sarasota County approval and all applicable zoning and land-use requirements, the parcel may be divided into two buildable lots. Buyers should conduct their own due diligence regarding subdivision and future development potential. Located just 3.5 miles from world-famous Siesta Key Beach and approximately 10 minutes from downtown Sarasota, you'll enjoy easy access to award-winning restaurants, shopping, arts, and entertainment while still being tucked away in a quiet neighborhood setting. The garage has been converted into a mother-in-law suite (or fourth bedroom) and is included in the heated square footage. It can easily be converted back to an oversized two-car garage if desired. A rare opportunity offering top-rated schools, flexibility, location, and future potential all in one property.
