About this home

A unique opportunity to relax and renew awaits. Are you looking to simplify life and live in Paradise? Check out this adorable glamp (glamour camp) where you can come to Sarasota as you please and relax in style in a very private setting with a minimal footprint. Or maybe you would like an empty lot to build a home near the water and have the camp house to live in while you build and then use it as a guest house. This property offers both – a package of two lots totaling . 4 acres. The lot with the camp house also has a detached garage with 504 square feet of storage area. The camp house is actually a historic fishermen’s cottage that has been impeccably restored and oozing with character. The living area is all in one room with a covered indoor/outdoor bathroom and laundry. If that isn’t your style you could close in that part completely. The location is amazing – nestled at the end of a peaceful dead-end street your two very deep lots have majestic live oaks and palms that you can enjoy from the open side porch. There is a mango tree that produces a lot of mangos – welcome to Florida. The reconstruction included new marine quality timber beams, new ¾” yellow pine flooring, new plumbing, modern on-demand hot water heater, a new mini split AC/heat pump, soft Edison style lighting, walls insulated with top quality rock wool, the wall material is ½” plywood custom milled into planks which are beveled, caulked and hand painted to resemble wide palm boards. A more detailed description of the work done is available. It is just a block to a wonderful park where you can launch a kayak or canoe and enjoy Little Sarasota Bay. Take a short bike ride to Historic Spanish point or Bay Preserve and take in a game of bocce ball. Hop in the car and you can be on Siesta Key, Downtown Sarasota, or Downtown Venice in 15 or 20 minutes. This location in historic Vamo is also close to theaters, golf, restaurants, the Legacy bike trail, Costco, Sprouts, shops, and easy I-75 access. The camp will come partially furnished. Bring your flip-flops and get ready to escape the twirls and stress of everyday life.

RSF-2

Residential Single-Family District

The RSF Districts permit single-family residential densities, which may take the form of single-family detached or cluster subdivisions; Cluster subdivisions may include lot line, traditional, patio, villa, atrium, duplex, or townhouse units. The nature of the use of property is the same in all RSF Districts, with variation among the RSF-1, RSF-2, RSF-3 and RSF-4 Districts in the requirements for density, lot area and width, and yards; A limited number of nonresidential uses are allowed, subject to the restrictions and requirements necessary to preserve and protect the single-family residential character of the neighborhood; The RSF Districts are generally used to implement the Comprehensive Plan within those areas shown as Low Density, Moderate Density and Medium Density Residential on the Future Land Use Map and on the Barrier Islands where the application of the district would not increase the density of development or hamper hurricane evacuation planning and disaster mitigation efforts. Locations on the Barrier Islands that have existing RSF zoning are acknowledged, and are considered to be consistent with the Future Land Use Map. The RSF-4 District is also used to implement the Comprehensive Plan in the areas shown as Office/Multifamily Residential Area and Corridor on the Future Land Use; The RSF-4 District, while not a primary implementing district, may also be allowed in Regional, Community, Village I, Village II, and Neighborhood Commercial Centers. Appropriate densities within the Low; Moderate or Medium Density Residential areas shall be guided by the density ranges as outlined in Future Land Use Policy 1.1.1, Objective 2.3, and Policy 2.3.1 of the Comprehensive Plan; These densities shall also be determined, in part, by the land use designations and developed residential areas surrounding the parcel.
