Rare Investment Opportunity in Downtown Sarasota’s Redevelopment Wave!
Four contiguous lots across two parcels totaling approximately 0. 44 acres (1721 & 1743 8th Street) — right in the heart of one of downtown Sarasota’s most exciting transformation zones. This restored vintage home sits in a rapidly evolving neighborhood becoming one of the city’s most desirable addresses.
Just steps from the beloved 10-acre Gillespie Park, featuring grand oaks, tennis and basketball courts, a scenic pond, dog park, fitness trail, and walking paths. Enjoy walking distance to Main Street, with its premier shops, galleries, and restaurants, and only 0. 7 miles to Sarasota’s waterfront and The Bay, the city’s new 53-acre signature park.
This property lies within an Opportunity Zone with no HOA and no deed restrictions, offering exceptional flexibility for investors and developers. Close to the downtown business district and minutes from the Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe, you’re surrounded by Sarasota’s vibrant cultural and commercial scene.
Prime Development Potential:

The location offers everything today’s buyers want—walkability, green space, and access to downtown and the bayfront.
Investment Strategies:
Buy and hold: Rent the charming existing 2-bed, 2-bath home for steady income while land values continue to rise in this high-demand area.
Develop now: Join the wave of new construction reshaping the district and capitalize on downtown’s growth.
Value-add opportunity: Position yourself in the path of progress where new developments are achieving premium returns.
