Step into Sarasota’s storied past with this 1925 Florida bungalow, located West Of Trail, west of Osprey, in the heart of historic Southside Village. This home welcomes you with a whimsical mosaic pathway, under a canopy of trees, onto a large breezy screened front porch. Inside, refinished original heart pine floors, high ceilings, a shell-adorned wood-burning fireplace and river rock bathroom floor capture the charm of Old Florida. The main house features a sun-filled great room, a large eat-in kitchen and custom French doors leading to two spacious bedrooms and a full bath. Two hall closets and an attic provide ample storage. A back porch houses laundry and additional storage. Outside a colorful patio brings you to a charming guest cottage featuring original beadboard and heart pine flooring, a living area, kitchenette, full bedroom, and 3/4 bath. Ideal for visitors, teen or mother-in-law suite, office, art studio or rental income. The property is favorably zoned (Multiple Single-Family Dwellings) to also allow both units to be rented, owner occupancy not required. Garden lovers and beach goers alike will appreciate the outdoor shower tucked behind the cottage, surrounded by a backyard filled with mature trees and local flora. This home is perfectly located a block from Sarasota Memorial Hospital, less than 2 miles from downtown, minutes from Siesta Key Beach and only steps away from Southside Village, Sarasota’s oldest shopping and dining district. Increasingly rare, homes like this don’t come along often—rich in history, filled with character, and part of Sarasota’s most walkable and vibrant neighborhood. Own a piece of Sarasota’s story and be a part of it.
