Overview
About this property
Rare opportunity to build on this 0.74-acre (±32,218 sq ft) lot at 648 Guild Dr in Venice, Florida, located in the Country Club Estates Unit 1 subdivision in Sarasota County. Zoned RMF4 for multi-family residential use, the site is approved for 13 townhomes or 26 smaller “half units” under 750 sq ft each. With density bonuses and City approval, unit count could potentially increase to as many as 52 — though this higher figure would need to be confirmed and would require designating some units as attainable housing. Conceptual renderings are available for a townhome or residential building concept.
Ideally situated on the island of Venice, just minutes from historic downtown, within walking distance of the island’s only supermarket, tucked behind a popular local restaurant, and a short drive to the beach. This lot sits in one of Southwest Florida’s fastest-growing and most sought-after markets, with significant new development nearby. Additional conveniences include proximity to the Legacy Trail and Venetian Waterway Trail, Venice Municipal Airport, multiple public beaches, and the new state-of-the-art Sarasota Memorial Hospital.
An affordable entry point for developers and investors looking to secure land in a desirable, expanding coastal community.
