Tucked beneath a canopy of mature oaks in the picturesque Indian Beach neighborhood, this distinctive two-story home offers a rare blend of character, privacy, and location. Just one block from the bay, you’re close enough to enjoy waterfront sunsets at the nearby park—yet safely outside the flood zone. The main residence includes 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms. The light-filled great room impresses with 10' ceilings, a gas fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling French doors that open to a private courtyard—perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings at home. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a loft-style living space, while the primary suite is privately situated with its own balcony. While the home has been lovingly maintained, many of the interior finishes are ready for updating, giving the next owner a chance to modernize the spaces and add value through thoughtful improvements. A 2007 addition includes a two-car garage and a detached studio apartment with a full bath—ideal for guests, creative pursuits, or multigenerational living. Indian Beach is one of Sarasota’s most charming historic neighborhoods, celebrated for its blend of old-Florida character, walkability, and proximity to top cultural destinations. The Ringling Museum, Asolo Theater, Ringling College, and the Bay Park Conservancy waterfront are minutes away, with downtown Sarasota, SRQ Airport, St. Armands Circle, and the beaches of Lido and Longboat Key just a short drive beyond. Don’t miss the opportunity to live in one of Sarasota’s most coveted and culturally rich neighborhoods—close to the water, yet comfortably high and dry.
