1754 10TH STREET SARASOTA FL 34236 | MLS #A4696301 | Gary Kusher | Florida Real Estate

Zoned DTE (Downtown Edge) in Sarasota’s Gillespie Park neighborhood, this approximately 6,600-square-foot parcel offers rare downtown development flexibility. Under the City’s DTE base density of 25 units an acre, the site supports up to 3 units by right. Buyers are responsible for confirming applicable review requirements with the City of Sarasota. For greater density, Sarasota’s Downtown Attainable Housing Density Bonus program allows DTE properties to reach up to 100 units an acre, or approximately 15 units on this site, once the attainable-housing requirements are satisfied. The program requires a minimum of .15 of the additional units above base density (so 2 of 15 units)—not the entire development—to be designated attainable for at least 30 years, subject to the City’s income-tier requirements. Buyers should verify the required attainable-unit count for their proposed development. Conceptual layouts are available for a 3-unit development and a 12-unit residential building. Buyers may also explore development of up to approximately 15 units under the density bonus program, subject to design feasibility and City requirements. Concepts are illustrative and are not approved development plans. The property is located within a federally designated Opportunity Zone, offering potential tax advantages for qualifying investments. Buyers should consult their tax advisor regarding eligibility, investment timing, and applicable federal transition rules. A rare opportunity to secure a flexible, high-potential parcel in one of Sarasota’s most dynamic downtown-adjacent neighborhoods.
