Description of Property
Experience unparalleled views of Sarasota Bay and a true sanctuary of native wildlife, from the resident dolphins and manatees to flocks of migrating birds and painted skies at sunset. Located in the highly desirable neighborhood of Sapphire Shores, considered the next West of Trail Hot Spot, this presents an excellent opportunity to own a prime Sarasota Bayfront property. Situated on 0.57 acres with 187 feet of waterfront, this property offers spectacular views of the bay and the Ca d’Zan, the historic former home of John and Mabel Ringling. Sadly, this 2 bedroom 2.5 bathroom midcentury gem sustained storm damage. Just a block from Sapphire Shores Park, a beloved neighborhood gathering place. The property is also centrally located minutes from the Ringling Museum of Art, and the Asolo Theater. Its proximity also offers easy access to downtown Sarasota for shopping, dining, and world-famous beaches. Seller has recently obtained a Survey and confirmed the ability to install dock and boat lift.
