Located in the highly sought-after Southside Elementary school district, this residence offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and convenience.

This home’s midcentury appeal and classic Florida style make it especially inviting. Ideally located near downtown Sarasota, Southside Village, Sarasota Memorial Hospital, restaurants, shopping, parks, and the beaches, this is an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a primary residence, seasonal retreat, or investment property in Sarasota real estate, with its character, ease of living, and optimal location.
Local Insight
At $420/sqft for a 1956 home in Sarasota, you're paying solid mid-market pricing, but the 1,330 square feet and compact 0.21-acre lot mean you're really betting on the location and potential for updates rather than space or land value. The South Gate location puts you near decent schools and a flood zone X designation is favorable, but honestly, with a 68-year-old property at this price point, you'll want to scrutinize the foundation, roof, and systems closely—older homes in this price range often need work that can quickly eat into savings. The lack of HOA is a plus for flexibility, but make sure the bones are solid before committing.
