Property Description
Searching for a Sarasota home under $400,000 with NO HOA, an oversized lot, and room for your boat or RV? This refreshed 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers 1,403 sq. ft. on an expansive .39-acre lot in Sarasota's Uplands area, west of Tamiami Trail and moments from Sarasota Bay.
Whether searching for a primary residence, Sarasota second home, investment property, or rental opportunity, 418 Edwards Drive offers flexibility that's hard to find this close to Sarasota's waterfront, cultural attractions, colleges, downtown and beaches.
Inside, original Sarasota character blends with meaningful updates. The light-filled living area features oversized windows, a wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookcase, while the open floor plan connects the living room, dining area and updated kitchen. The kitchen was remodeled in 2018 with additional lower cabinetry updated in 2026, providing plenty of storage and workspace.
A major 2026 interior refresh includes new flooring and contemporary baseboards throughout, creating a clean, move-in-ready feel. Two bedrooms are positioned along the central hallway with an updated full bathroom featuring a separate shower and bathtub.
The outdoor space is a standout. Set on approximately 17,114 sq. ft., the large fenced backyard offers room for entertaining, pets, gardening, recreational storage, a boat or RV. New fencing was installed in 2024, and a deck off the kitchen creates an inviting space for outdoor dining or relaxing. The generous homesite also offers flexibility for potential future improvements.
Enjoy mature landscaping, privacy and proximity to Sarasota Bay while remaining close to everything Sarasota has to offer.
Investors should take note. With NO HOA and a 1-month minimum lease, this property may offer an attractive opportunity for buyers exploring a Sarasota rental property, seasonal residence, second home or longer-term investment.
