Property Description
Located in the heart of nationally designated Historic Burns Court, one of downtown Sarasota's most walkable neighborhoods, the property is just steps from an award-winning cinema, restaurants, boutiques, and the Bayfront, yet notably outside of a flood zone.
Many original architectural details remain intact, including decorative ironwork, moisture-resistant plaster walls, crown molding, and original hardwood floors. A beautiful, mature oak tree provides valuable shade and enhances the home's historic charm. The home has excellent bones for a dream restoration project, the main house featuring a 2023 roof and 2019 HVAC.
Built-in equity: Zoned Downtown Core (DTC), the property includes confirmed transferable development rights (TDRs), which may be sold to a developer or investor thanks to a new historic preservation ordinance effective as of December 2025.
Whether you envision creating a stunning live/work environment, generating income from a detached apartment, or designing an elegant commercial space, this charming property offers exceptional flexibility and historic character.
