Land with Home for Sale in Sarasota, Florida
5310 N Tuttle Ave, Sarasota, FL 34234
Invest in one of central Sarasota’s most versatile acreage opportunities with this gated 2.23-acre RE1-zoned estate offering rare land-use flexibility and no HOA or deed restrictions. Positioned for future growth, the property is fully secured with perimeter fencing and an electronic security gate at the 53rd Street entrance, with dual asphalt driveways already installed to support expanded use. A cleared and prepped secondary build site provides immediate potential for a detached guest house, ADU, additional garage structure, or professional-grade workshop. Approximately $100,000 in recent capital improvements—including a new roof, new water heater, heavy-duty double septic system with lift station, and extensive new asphalt paving—significantly reduce future infrastructure costs and strengthen the property’s development readiness. The existing block residence is dated yet fully functional, allowing for rental income, phased renovation, or redevelopment while long-term plans are executed. A four-car garage configuration includes an oversized attached two-car garage with workshop space and a detached air-conditioned two-car workshop, plus 50-amp RV hookups to accommodate commercial equipment, recreational vehicles, or specialty storage needs. The private pool and sand beach area enhance usability and short-term livability, all located just minutes from major retail, approximately five miles from UTC, and a short drive to downtown Sarasota. With infrastructure in place, zoning flexibility secured, and acreage becoming increasingly scarce in central Sarasota, this property represents a strategic land-bank, redevelopment, or custom compound opportunity with substantial upside potential. Schedule your private showing and evaluate the possibilities.
