DREAMING OF BUILDING A NEW HOME WHILE KEEPING THE EXISTING COTTAGE? With approximately .45 acres and RSF2 zoning, the property's size creates an intriguing opportunity to investigate whether the existing home could potentially remain as an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) while a future dream home is constructed on the property, subject to applicable Sarasota County zoning, permitting, setbacks and other governmental requirements. Buyers should independently verify their intended use with the appropriate authorities. The expansive grounds provide abundant space for gardening, outdoor living, pets, hobbies, recreational vehicles and all the toys, while existing outbuildings provide additional storage and utility. Mature vegetation and generous separation from neighboring properties enhance the property's peaceful, tucked-away atmosphere. NO HOA and Flood Zone X add even more appeal. Here you'll find an increasingly difficult combination to duplicate in Sarasota: LAND, PRIVACY, CHARACTER AND LOCATION. It feels refreshingly removed from the typical suburban setting while remaining convenient to shopping, dining, downtown Sarasota, I-75 and everything the Suncoast has to offer.
