Overview

SARASOTA ARCHITECTURAL COMPOUND | 4.54 ACRES IN DESOTO ACRES | ORIGINAL DESIGN BY ROBERT L. SHAW, A.I.A. | WEST OF I-75. A rare custom estate acquisition offering an expansive, single-story Spanish perimeter hacienda footprint in Sarasota's historic acreage enclave. Encompassing Sarasota County Lots 4 & 13, this signature architecture features 15,296 total sq. ft. under roof (5,920 sq. ft. living area), an off-grade solid wood joist floor system on concrete pier footings, an authentic 5V crimp metal roof system, a central 64'x82' open-air Mediterranean courtyard with an in-ground pool, and symmetrical 50'x24' workshop and garage wings. The estate is in an unfinished, raw construction condition ready for custom reimagining. Buyer and design-build team to independently verify all existing structural framing, blueprints, zoning entitlements, code compliance, permitting status, and site clearing. Sarasota County RE-1 zoning enables detached guest casitas (ADUs), horse stables, home offices, and recreational workshops, along with commercial vehicle, boat, and RV parking with no HOA oversight (voluntary $35/yr association). Connected to Sarasota County public water. Central Gulf Coast access by transportation: 5 minutes to SRQ International Airport private hangars, 8 minutes to UTC shopping and dining, 15 minutes to Downtown Sarasota, and under 25 minutes to world-renowned powder sands of Gulf beaches (Lido Beach, Siesta Key Beach). Sold strictly AS-IS / CASH ONLY with verifiable Proof of Funds (POF) required with all offers. SHOWN STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. A signed Hold Harmless & Premises Liability Release is required prior to confirmed entry. Due to open subflooring and construction hazards, all visitors must be 18+ years of age.
