Active with contract. From the moment you enter the gates of this truly unique one of a kind walled compound you have total privacy on an almost one acre Old Florida tropical garden. The large 4 bedroom 2 bath home on a tributary of Philippi Creek reflects the mid century Sarasota School of Architecture style. It is rumored to be a Ruth Richmond home. However, to date we have not been able to determine the exact pedigree. The oversized living and family rooms have a glass wall of doors overlooking a large pool and spa amidst lovely plush foliage. Fabulous in town location close to Siesta Key and the cultural arts of downtown Sarasota. The living and bedrooms have a few steps so that they are on different levels. Detached 2 car garage at entrance. Don't let your buyer miss this incredible opportunity to own this.

RSF-3
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.
