Description

Nestled behind the gates of the iconic Sanderling Club, widely regarded as one of Florida Gulf Coast’s only private, gated beachfront neighborhoods, this property offers a rare opportunity to establish a presence within one of Florida’s most storied coastal enclaves.

Surrounded by multi-million-dollar estates and lush tropical landscaping, the homesite presents exceptional potential to capture sweeping Gulf views and create a truly remarkable coastal retreat. The existing residence is a charming 1953 beach house, distinguished by its original terrazzo floors and solid cast-in-place concrete construction, hallmarks of the durability and understated character that define mid-century coastal architecture. Offered as-is, the home provides a unique canvas for restoration, thoughtful renovation, or a visionary re-imagining that reflects the future owner’s architectural aspirations. Life within the Sanderling Club is defined by an unmatched Gulf-front lifestyle. Residents enjoy private access to pristine beaches, along with exclusive community amenities including tennis and pickleball courts set directly along the shoreline, a private marina, and the rare opportunity to swim in the clear Gulf waters alongside manatees and dolphins. Evenings often unfold beneath legendary Gulf sunsets, best experienced from the community’s historic clubhouse overlooking the water. Whether envisioned as a restoration of its mid-century charm, the site of a striking new architectural residence, or a long-term investment within one of Sarasota’s most coveted coastal neighborhoods, this property represents a compelling opportunity to become part of the enduring legacy of the Sanderling Club.
