Built in 2007 with solid masonry construction, this remarkable property offers 3,338 total square feet, including a 2,854-square-foot main residence, a beautifully appointed 484-square-foot detached studio casita resting above the spacious detached 2 car garage w/covered carport. This 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, is offered for well under $2 million. Designed to capture the romance of an authentic Mediterranean villa, the home showcases imported Colombian roof tiles, handcrafted Colombian brick pavers, rich hardwood flooring, elegant French doors, a chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a gas range and fireplace, dual-zone HVAC, a tankless water heater, and a convenient second-floor laundry room.

The detached studio casita offers outstanding flexibility as a luxurious guest suite, executive office, fitness studio, creative space, or income-producing accommodation. It is separately metered for convenience. Just a 2 min walk from the 10-acre John Hamilton Gillespie Park and a 2 minute drive (or short walk or bike ride) from Downtown Main Street and Sarasota's award-winning restaurants, boutiques, theaters, galleries, waterfront, and renowned Farmers Market, Casa del Sol places the very best of Sarasota at your doorstep. Located within the desirable Downtown Neighborhood (DTN) zoning district allowing one-week minimum short-term rentals, the property presents a rare opportunity as a primary residence, seasonal escape, or exceptional investment. Rarely does a home provide this level of architectural distinction, walkable downtown convenience, investment flexibility, and resort-inspired living. Casa del Sol is finally on the market, offering an extraordinary opportunity to experience one of Sarasota's most coveted lifestyles.
