About this home
Under contract-accepting backup offers. A rare opportunity to own a single-family residence in Sarasota’s sought-after Rosemary District. Set on a beautifully landscaped property, this home features a towering century-old oak tree that anchors the backyard and creates a distinctive outdoor setting rarely found in downtown locations. Spanish and Mediterranean architectural elements introduce the residence, offering classic Old World character paired with solid construction and an elevation of approximately 25 feet above sea level. The property is in Flood Zone X, where flood insurance is not required. Inside, the home features high ceilings, hardwood flooring and extensive crown molding throughout. A gas fireplace adds warmth and character to the living area during cooler winter evenings. Multiple windows allow natural light to flow throughout the interior spaces. The residence includes three bedrooms, with one configured as an office or study and featuring a separate exterior entrance, offering flexibility for work-from-home use or private guest access. Outdoor living spaces include a spacious garden area, an oversized patio and a pergola surrounded by mature landscaping, creating a private setting for dining and entertaining. In the heart of the Rosemary District, the home places residents within proximity to many culinary delights, Sarasota’s cultural amenities, including galleries, theaters and live music venues. More than 65 restaurants, cafés and shops are within approximately a six-block radius. The Bay Park waterfront district, a 53-acre public park along Sarasota Bay, is just five blocks away. Payne Park, the Legacy Trail for recreation and biking, Sarasota Farmers Market and Whole Foods Market are all nearby. The John Ringling Bridge provides convenient access to St. Armands Circle and Lido Beach. The property is zoned DTE, which offers future redevelopment potential, subject to city approvals. Owners may choose to enjoy the residence as a private downtown home while maintaining long-term flexibility for future planning. Or alternatively, since this is DTE zoning, this is ideal property for a restaurant possibility, just something else to consider! A unique opportunity to experience downtown Sarasota living in one of the city’s vibrant and evolving neighborhoods.
