3940 BAY SHORE ROAD

The Indian Beach neighborhood on Sarasota’s north side is undergoing a renaissance of redevelopment. This includes vintage Mediterranean restorations from the Ringling era, mid-century moderns with international pedigree and new, contemporary construction exhibiting a liberating variety of styles. 3940 Bay Shore Road is a classic, Florida ranch right in the middle of all the action! Many original elements remain like terrazzo floors, a cypress paneled sunroom with a beamed ceiling and beautifully tiled baths reminiscent of the 1950’s. The kitchen is large as are the windows providing long views over tropical foliage and allowing maximum light to stream in. There is enough character here to consider restoration and living “on grade” two lots from Sarasota Bay cannot be replaced. But clearly, this location is popular with those willing to make significant investment in new construction as dramatic homes are rising up on many nearby parcels. Indian Beach is nestled between many of Sarasota’s most prominent cultural and educational institutions. These include the John & Mable Ringling Museum of Art, the Asolo Theater of Performing Arts, New College of Florida and the Ringling College of Art & Design. Live and invest here to be just minutes north of downtown Sarasota and the Ringling Bridge which spans to serene Gulf of Mexico beaches on Lido and Longboat Key.
