If only these walls could talk! Presenting 908 Pomelo Avenue—a century-old bungalow-style property that offers a rare opportunity for today's buyer to own a true piece of Sarasota’s historic charm. This historically registered homestead is situated on two and a half lots in the heart of Sarasota, within walking distance to public access points on Hudson Bayou and a short drive to downtown, beautiful Gulf beaches, and Selby Gardens. The main house features approximately 2,400 square feet of living space, with communal kitchen and dining areas on the lower level, and four bedrooms and two bathrooms on the second level. At the rear of the main house, you'll find a spacious screened sun porch overlooking a large swimming pool. Additionally, there is a detached two-car garage with a three-room apartment at the back, which could serve as extra space for the homeowner or as an income-producing investment. This home is not subject to deed restrictions. While it may need some cosmetic updates, the property has “good bones,” and many significant renovations have already been completed. The plumbing and electrical systems were updated in 2003, and the roof was replaced in 2023. This property is ideal for a serious buyer who is ready to undertake a project that can transform it into an absolute showpiece. Disclosure: This property requires renovation and is recorded in the City of Sarasota Register of Historic Places, which means it is bound by specific regulations for alterations. The property is priced accordingly to reflect these constraints.
