About this home
1267 STARBOARD LANE
A compelling canvas for architectural vision on the shores of Little Sarasota Bay. At the end of a quiet street in the established Siesta Key Midnight Harbor neighborhood, 1267 Starboard Lane offers a rare opportunity to design and construct a modern bayfront residence on one of the island’s distinctive waterfront sites. This .45-acre property features 287 feet of water frontage, with approximately 92 feet along the open bay and 195 feet along a protected canal, creating water exposure on two sides and expansive views across Little Sarasota Bay. The orientation allows a future residence to capture sweeping water vistas, coastal breezes, and memorable sunsets while also benefiting from the calm, protected canal frontage for boating access. The existing structure is being offered for land value, presenting an ideal opportunity to design a new residence that reflects today’s elevated coastal architecture and modern building standards. With generous frontage and lot depth, the site offers excellent flexibility for thoughtful design, allowing a future home to integrate elevated living levels, expansive terraces, resort-style outdoor spaces, and seamless indoor-outdoor connections that embrace the surrounding waterfront environment. The bayside frontage is enhanced by a seawall (2014), while the canal side provides sailboat water with no fixed bridges, offering direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway and Gulf beyond. Mature coastal trees add scale and natural beauty to the property, creating an established setting rarely found on newly developed waterfront parcels. Just moments from the white quartz sands of Siesta Beach and with convenient access to mainland Sarasota via the Stickney Point Bridge, the location offers a balance of island privacy and proximity to Sarasota’s vibrant arts, dining and cultural amenities. For architects, builders, or buyers seeking to create a distinctive new waterfront residence, this property presents an exceptional opportunity to shape the next chapter of Siesta Key living.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
