A Rare Build Opportunity on Siesta Key! Located on one of Siesta Key’s most beloved streets, this .26-acre lot on Commonwealth Drive presents a unique opportunity to build new in an established, multi-million-dollar neighborhood. Surrounded by lush, mature landscaping and a peaceful, community-focused setting, the lot offers the ideal backdrop for your vision—whether you’re seeking a full-time residence, vacation retreat, or long-term investment. The existing cottage, which holds no contributory value due to hurricane flooding, creates a true blank slate for new construction. As an added benefit, this property is being offered with the option to build a thoughtfully designed custom home by Yoder Construction. The proposed plan, The Oceana, is part of an exclusive ISLAND SERIES, developed with sustainability and the unique coastal conditions of Siesta Key in mind. Buyers may choose to build this elevated 2,735-square-foot home, or collaborate with the builder on a personalized design through the available design center. Commonwealth Drive is ideally located just minutes from the powdery sands of Siesta Key Beach and the vibrant charm of Siesta Village, with its shops, restaurants, and island lifestyle. Opportunities to build new in this highly sought-after location are increasingly rare. To explore this offering further, request details on the optional build package, and schedule a walk of the lot.

718 Hudson Avenue is a rare, buildable 7,032 sq ft vacant lot in the heart of downtown Sarasota, within the charming and historic Burns Square and Laurel Park neighborhoods. This lot is in a chic; modern enclave of newly constructed residences nestled within the historic Laurel Park neighborhood. This community showcases clean lines, flat roofs, expansive windows, and a contemporary architectural palette—offering a refreshing contrast to the Mediterranean Revival and bungalow styles that defined the area during the 1920s. These homes are seamlessly integrated into one of Sarasota’s most storied districts, providing residents with both design-forward elegance and an enviable downtown address. Situated just three blocks from Bayfront Park, this property offers residents easy access to a premier 3.5-acre waterfront green space featuring a splash pad and playground, dog friendly zones, kayaking and canoe launches, picnic areas, fitness trails, and sweeping views of Sarasota Bay and the Ringling Causeway Bridge. Living in this enclave means enjoying a walkable cultural lifestyle: stroll to nearby Burns Court to discover independent cinemas, artful cafés, local galleries, and eclectic boutiques. Each November, the renowned Sarasota Chalk Festival fills the streets with stunning sidewalk murals and public art, transforming the district into an open-air gallery. Downtown Sarasota also pulses with arts and culture year-round—from the John and Mable Ringling Museum and Marie Selby Botanical Gardens to the Florida Studio Theatre, Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, the Sarasota Ballet, Opera, and Circus Arts. Beyond the arts, Sarasota’s urban core features a lively mix of dining, shopping, and recreation. Residents can linger over craft cocktails and rooftop sunsets, sample fresh Gulf catch at waterfront restaurants, or enjoy farmers markets, boutique stores, and eclectic nightlife. The Legacy Trail and city greenways provide scenic bike and walking routes, while the nearby barrier islands—Siesta, Lido, South Lido—are world famous for bright quartz beaches and marine adventures. 718 Hudson Avenue presents a unique opportunity to develop a custom residence that takes full advantage of urban conveniences: cultural richness, coastal recreation, and a close-knit historic neighborhood just minutes from the sparkle of Sarasota Bay. The lot is currently zoned RMF-3. Forward looking buyers might also explore future land use designations such as DTE or DTNE. All zoning requirements need to be independently verified with the City of Sarasota.
