Tucked beneath a canopy of oak trees in the picturesque Indian Beach neighborhood, this unique two-story home offers the perfect blend of character, privacy, and location. Located just one block from the bay, you’re close enough to enjoy waterfront sunsets at the nearby park—but safely outside the flood zone. This property experienced no water intrusion during last year's major storms, offering peace of mind in every season. The main house features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a flexible office/art studio, and a well-appointed kitchen with a professional-grade Southbend 6-burner gas range. The light-filled great room boasts 12' ceilings, a gas fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling French doors that open to a private courtyard—perfect for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a second living space, while the primary suite is privately tucked away with its own balcony. While the home has been well-loved over the years, it presents a wonderful opportunity for the next owner to bring their own updates and vision to life. A 2007 addition includes a two-car garage and a detached studio apartment with full bath—ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Indian Beach is one of Sarasota’s most charming historic neighborhoods, known for its blend of old Florida charm and modern homes, walkability, and proximity to top cultural destinations. You’re minutes from The Ringling Museum, Asolo Theater, Ringling College, and the Bay Park Conservancy waterfront. Downtown Sarasota, the airport, St. Armands Circle, and the beaches of Lido and Longboat Key are all just a short drive away. Don’t miss the opportunity to live in one of Sarasota’s most coveted and culturally rich neighborhoods—close to the water, but comfortably high and dry.
