Property Description
Rare Grand Canal redevelopment opportunity on Siesta Key, offered at land value. This estate-sale homesite delivers approximately 168 feet of water frontage, among the most generous on the Grand Canal, along one of the canal's widest, most open stretches, with long water views and exceptional ease of egress. Boaters enjoy quick passage to the Intracoastal Waterway and on to the Gulf, with the bridge just minutes away. On a peaceful cul-de-sac, the site pairs privacy with proximity, with a short bike ride to the powdery white sand of top-rated Siesta Key Beach. Build anew and capture full water views or renovate to your vision. While the primary value is the exceptional lot, according to the seller, water has not intruded the interior of the existing home. Sold at land value, buyer to perform all due diligence. Opportunities of this width, frontage and location on the Grand Canal are exceedingly rare.
