Residential Property - Single Family Residence in Sarasota
Listing Price: $699,000
Description of Property
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Rare high-visibility opportunity on Fruitville Road with exposure to 50,000+ vehicles per day. This ±0.80-acre parcel is ideally positioned just 3.7 miles from I-75, offering exceptional frontage and accessibility in one of Sarasota’s most heavily traveled corridors. The property is currently zoned RSF-2 (3.5 units per acre), allowing for the potential addition of at least one more unit with county approval. The existing single-family residence could be utilized as a live/work setup or easily converted to office use. Additionally, the site presents a compelling future commercial or multifamily redevelopment opportunity, with potential rezoning to implementing districts under the OFF/MF FLUM designation, including OPI (Office, Professional & Institutional), RMF-1, RMF-2, or RMF-3, subject to the rezoning process. The existing home, built in 1954, features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, large open living room, and a carport that has been enclosed. The expansive lot is fully fenced and offers ample room for future development, parking, or storage, along with an on-site pond. Located approximately 3 miles from Downtown Sarasota and minutes from beaches, dining, shopping, and recreation, this property combines strong in-place utility with long-term redevelopment upside. With unmatched daily traffic exposure and proximity to major destinations, this is a prime opportunity for investors, developers, or owner-users seeking visibility, flexibility, and growth potential in the Sarasota market.
