Property Description

Rarely available in Cherokee Park, widely regarded as one of Sarasota's most desirable West of Trail neighborhoods, 1722 North Drive presents an extraordinary opportunity on a remarkably oversized 150-by-150-foot homesite with an impressive 150 feet of street frontage. Significantly larger and more generously proportioned than many properties in the neighborhood, the square parcel offers the scale, symmetry, and flexibility increasingly difficult to find in Sarasota's most established luxury enclaves.Cherokee Park is distinguished by its quiet, tree-lined streets and an architectural landscape where beautifully restored historic residences sit alongside prominent new custom homes designed and built by some of Sarasota's most respected architects and builders. Within that setting, this property stands apart. Mature, century-old oak trees frame the perimeter, creating a park-like canopy of privacy, shade, and character while leaving the heart of the lot remarkably open. The combination of its ideal square configuration, substantial street presence, and undisturbed tree canopy creates a compelling canvas for a future luxury residence, with room to build a custom home, pool, outdoor living areas, and landscaped grounds without overwhelming the site.The existing home is charming, comfortable, and move-in ready, giving its next owner the flexibility to enjoy the property immediately, renovate over time, or hold it while designing a future custom residence. Recent improvements include a new air-conditioning system, hot water heater, sewer line, and resurfaced pool, all completed in 2024. A separate bonus space offers an ideal setting for a work-from-home office, art studio, gym, or creative retreat.Located just moments from Southside Elementary School and close to Southside Village, downtown Sarasota, the bayfront, and Sarasota Memorial Hospital, 1722 North Drive combines one of the city's most coveted residential settings with the dimensions and character of a truly distinctive homesite. Whether enjoyed as it stands today or reimagined as a significant new estate, this is a rare opportunity to secure an unusually substantial parcel and lasting value in the heart of Cherokee Park.
