SOUTHWOOD STREET, Sarasota, FL 34231 - Sarasota County

An exceptional opportunity in one of Sarasota’s most coveted West of Trail neighborhoods. This generous oversized corner lot is ready for a new vision, offering a rare chance to design a residence that takes full advantage of its premier location less than two miles from world-famous Siesta Key Beach. Enjoy effortless access to powder-soft sand, sparkling Gulf waters, and all the coastal lifestyle Sarasota is known for.

The surrounding community blends classic Florida charm with modern luxury — a mix of well-kept single-family homes and villas, along with many waterfront properties ranging from mid-century to contemporary architecture. With Sarasota County’s flexibility regarding secondary structures (buyer to verify with Building & Zoning), the possibilities here are especially appealing.

Because the homesite is both oversized and positioned on a corner, buyers have room to dream big — a full-size pool, detached garage, guest house, studio, or an expansive outdoor living environment could all fit beautifully on the property (subject to county approval).

You’ll also enjoy peace of mind knowing the lot sits outside the flood zone and previously supported a home, meaning essential utilities and infrastructure are already in place. And with downtown Sarasota just minutes away, you’re perfectly situated between a quiet coastal escape and vibrant city life filled with arts, dining, and entertainment.

This property delivers the blank canvas, the location, and the flexibility. All it needs now is the right buyer to bring the next chapter to life.
