Opportunity knocks with this quiet West of Trail location! Located 10 homes from the water, this home is set on an expansive 98 x 125 ft lot offering exceptional potential—whether you’re looking to renovate, rebuild, or invest in one of Sarasota's most desirable locations. Tucked into a tree-lined street within the favorable X flood zone, this 3-bed + den, 2-bath home spans 2,165 square feet and features a split floor plan, a large 2 car garage, and solid bones ready for transformation.
