0.15 Acres Lot
Built in 1959
For Sale - Active
1 Units

Welcome to 2005 Gillespie Ave, a rare property close to downtown Sarasota in Amaryllis Park. No HOA! No CDD fees! No Updates needed! This home is move in ready, as it was renovated down to the studs in 2021. Renovations included replacing all carpet with laminate flooring, a newer roof (2021), a newer air conditioning unit (2021), a tankless water heater (so you don’t run out of hot water), and a water filtration system (2024), and PVC piping with a new tap to the main city line! (2024) One of the key benefits of living in this non-HOA community is the greater freedom to make modifications to your property without needing approval, saving money on HOA fees, and experiencing fewer restrictions and regulations. Fruit trees are allowed and there is already a mango tree onsite! Also a perfect place for dog owners since there are no HOA breed restrictions! Quick commute to downtown. Only 1.7 miles to Main Street and Orange Ave. Only 5.3 miles to Lido Beach! Great starter home or investor property. The City of Sarasota allows for short-term vacation rentals within Residential Zoning Districts throughout City limits.The minimum stay requirement for any short-term vacation rental unit located within the City limits of Sarasota is 7 Full Days and 7 Full Nights, City of Sarasota Zoning Code II-304(b)(1) and VI-202(b).
