Exceptional opportunity to own two side-by-side serviced prime waterfront lots located on high ground in the desirable coastal community of Placida (Rotonda Sands area). This listing includes both 26 and 28 Harness Rd and is being sold together as a package. These buildable lots offer beautiful water views and are already serviced, providing a significant advantage for builders and investors. The combination of available utilities and high elevation can represent substantial savings in site preparation and foundation costs compared to other vacant parcels in the area. In Rotonda Sands/Placida, this can translate into meaningful construction cost efficiencies. Enjoy stunning sunsets and tranquil surroundings while being just minutes from golfing, boating, fishing and outdoor recreation. Nearby marinas provide access to the Gulf waters and pristine beaches of Gasparilla Island and Boca Grande. These properties offer an excellent opportunity to build two homes, a larger custom residence across both lots, or secure a strong investment position in a growing coastal market. (Please include proof of funds with all offers. Seller prefers cash. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed; buyer and buyer’s agent must perform their own due diligence. )
Rotonda Sands, located between Gasparilla Road (SR 771) and the Cape Haze Peninsula, is a coastal and residential Rotonda neighborhood with canal-front streets and Gulf breezes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Gasparilla Road corridor near Rotonda Boulevard, where marinas, bait-and-tackle counters, and low-key waterfront stops set the pace. Architecture leans Florida-ranch and contemporary builds with screened lanais, boat lifts, and palms framing wide setbacks. Water defines daily rhythms, with kayaks and small boats tracing the canals toward Lemon Bay. Placida Fishing Pier and the Boca Grande Lighthouse Museum act as local touchstones for saltwater culture and history. Evenings often point toward the causeway and shoreline parks for sunset views and quiet walks.
