SVN Commercial Advisory Group is pleased to present a premier 15-acre commercial and residential development site strategically located in the rapidly growing coastal community of Englewood, Florida.

Zoned Commercial General (CG), the property offers a highly flexible acquisition structure. A developer can purchase the entire 15-acre tract or acquire individual subdivided parcels tailored for retail, multi-family, or build-to-rent (BTR) communities.

Flexible Subdivision Options & Pricing Breakdown
The seller is highly flexible and willing to subdivide the 15-acre site into three distinct development tracts to accommodate mixed-use, retail, or standalone multifamily builders:
-
Parcel A (1.2 +/- Acres) | $775,000: Premium retail corner lot featuring excellent visibility on Winchester Boulevard and the future Cypress Road. Perfectly positioned for a future traffic signal.
-
Parcel B (1.2 +/- Acres) | $675,000: High-visibility retail parcel with direct frontage on Winchester Boulevard, ideal for high-volume commercial users.
-
Parcel C (12.5 +/- Acres) | $4,500,000: Massive interior parcel featuring partial frontage on Winchester Boulevard and partial frontage on the future Cypress Road expansion. Optimized for multi-family apartments or a dedicated Build-to-Rent (BTR) residential community.
The Live Local Act Advantage: By-Right Multifamily Zoning
For residential developers, this property offers an incredibly de-risked path to construction via the state of Florida’s progressive housing legislation.
-
No Rezoning Required: Under the Florida Legislature's Live Local Act, developers can build an apartment complex or build-to-rent (BTR) community on this commercially zoned land by-right, completely bypassing the costly and time-consuming local rezoning process, provided affordable/workforce housing criteria are met.
-
Protected Density Rights: Following state-level legislative updates, Charlotte County's localized "Transfer Density Unit" (TDU) program is legally prevented from impairing or restricting the density implementations granted under the Live Local Act, ensuring maximum development potential for Parcel C.
Strategic Location & Unmatched Infrastructure Connectivity
This development tract sits at the geographic center of Southwest Florida's most exciting growth corridors.
-
The Connector Highway: Winchester Boulevard serves as the new central spine of the region. To the north, it links directly to South River Road, providing a direct, high-speed line to Interstate-75 (I-75) and the master-planned boomtown of Wellen Park. To the south, it connects directly to Placida Road, the exclusive gateway to the world-famous luxury island enclave of Boca Grande.
-
Infrastructure Ready: A full-access median with dedicated concrete turn lanes is already built out and in place for the future Cypress Road intersection. Due to rising traffic metrics along this connector, development of this site could warrant the installation of a future traffic light at the intersection.
-
Permitted Commercial Uses: The Commercial General (CG) zoning for Parcels A & B permits a wide array of high-performing retail uses by-right, including banks, drive-thru pharmacies, gas stations, automated car washes, standard retail storefronts, and quick-service or sit-down restaurants.
Charlotte County Demographics & Economic Growth Drivers
Englewood and the surrounding Charlotte County submarkets are experiencing an unprecedented residential and tourism boom, heavily driving the demand for new commercial services and housing options.
-
Sustained Population Influx: Englewood has realized a substantial 12.2% population growth over the past five years, with data modeling projecting an additional 8.5% growth sequentially. Looking broader, Manatee and Charlotte Counties are anticipating an explosive 10% to 18% surge in population through 2030.
-
Immediate Residential Synergy: The site is positioned immediately west of Rotonda West (a distinctive circular master-planned community featuring 9,000 home sites across seven neighborhoods) and is flanked by explosive new Lennar master-planned developments, including Island Lakes at Coco Bay and Palm Lake at Coco Bay.
-
Macro Economic Magnets: Regional employment and tourist spending are anchored by massive massive luxury capital projects nearby, such as the 785-room Sunseeker Resort Charlotte Harbor (featuring elite convention spaces, retail, and dining) and the iconic Fisherman’s Village waterfront resort and marina.
