About this home

A rare chance to secure a prime footprint in one of Sarasota’s most dynamic districts!
Local Insight
At $895/sqft for a 1925 home in Sarasota's Towles neighborhood, you're paying near-market rates for a property that will likely need significant updates—original construction means plumbing, electrical, and roof are probably due or overdue. The 1,112 sqft footprint on just 0.11 acres is tight, so this works best as a starter or investment play rather than a family home with expansion potential, though the X flood zone rating is a genuine advantage here.
