Property Description:
This 3-bed, 2-bath, 1,282 sf block home built in 1957 sits on an 8,250 sf lot with a screened swimming pool in Sarasota’s DeSoto Lakes area. Located in Flood Zone X with city utilities, the property is vacant and ready for renovation. Major systems are mid-life (roof 2010, AC 2015). Interior is dated throughout and needs a full cosmetic overhaul, plus pool repair and exterior cleanup. Solid layout, established neighborhood, and strong nearby renovated comps make this a straightforward flip with a wide buyer pool.
