A rare chance to own a prime bayfront property in Sarasota’s highly desirable Sapphire Shores / Indian Beach neighborhood. Positioned on a 0.51-acre lot with 136 feet of direct Sarasota Bay frontage, 820 Indian Beach combines unobstructed water views, a generous homesite, and a location that continues to grow in demand. The property is currently an income producing rental property. The existing residence reflects a classic mid-century modern style, defined by clean architectural lines, a bright white exterior, vaulted ceilings, and large picture windows that bring in consistent natural light. The interiors are open and airy, with living spaces oriented toward the backyard and bay, creating a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere throughout the home. The outdoor setting is a standout feature. The bayfront positioning provides wide water views, while mature trees and the depth of the lot offer privacy and shade. A pergola and expansive patio create functional outdoor living areas, and a private path leads directly toward the water. Riprap spans the bayfront perimeter, securing the shoreline. Inside, the home offers three bedrooms and three bathrooms across 1,915 square feet under air. Wood flooring, abundant windows, and simple, clean finishes maintain a cohesive aesthetic. The kitchen and breakfast area are bright and practical, with large windows overlooking the backyard and water. Beyond the home itself, the true value of 820 Indian Beach Road is the land. Bayfront lots with this amount of frontage and lot size are increasingly limited within Sapphire Shores / Indian Beach, making the property an excellent candidate for a renovation, expansion, or entirely new construction. The homesite provides the scale and orientation to support a significant custom residence designed to maximize the views. The neighborhood remains one of Sarasota’s most established waterfront areas, known for its tree-lined streets, varied architecture, and close proximity to downtown Sarasota, St. Armand's Circle, shopping, dining, and Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. 820 Indian Beach Road represents both an immediate waterfront lifestyle opportunity or investment and a highly compelling long-term property in a consistently sought-after location.
