The tiny town of Belleair Shore suddenly has an $11 million stretch of sand on offer, as two contiguous Gulf-front parcels hit the market together in a package pitched as a rare, estate-sized opportunity on the Pinellas coast.
The side-by-side lots at 1420 and 1440 Gulf Boulevard combine for roughly 160 feet of private Gulf frontage and close to one acre of buildable beachfront. Marketing materials frame the package as a flexible play: buyers can opt for one of three pre-designed showcase homes as a turnkey build or bring in their own architect for a custom estate.
According to the Tampa Bay Business Journal, the combined site totals just under an acre and is being floated either as a single legacy compound or as two separate high-end homesites. Listing agent Madalyn Blair notes that buyers can stick with the showcase plans or pursue a completely custom design tailored to the unusually large beachfront footprint.
Listing materials from Corcoran Dwellings show the unified property measuring approximately 160 by 245 feet, about 0.90 acres, and marketed under MLS #TB8502617. Broker Liane Jamason is offering each parcel individually at $5.5 million or together at the full $11 million, and the listing notes that the existing homes are slated for demolition once permits are in hand. Her marketing highlights the due west exposure over the Gulf and points to Belleair Shore's private, low density charter that keeps large-scale development in check.
Corcoran's brochure outlines a turnkey path through a partnership with Windstar Homes. The Business Observer reports that the menu includes three designs, the Edgewater, the Crescendo and the Villa Modena, with land plus house packages that could climb as high as $38.5 million. The outlet also notes, citing county records, that the current owners acquired the two parcels in separate deals in 2013 and 2016 for roughly $2.15 million and $2.05 million. On those numbers, a completed Villa Modena at the top end of the range would set a new local price record.
Why the Lot's Proportions Matter
With 245 feet of depth paired with 160 feet of frontage, the listing pitches the land as one of the few sites on this stretch of coastline that can carry a true front-to-back estate feel, with room for a motor court, multi-bay garage, pool pavilion and private gardens, instead of the shallower beach builds that dominate much of the Pinellas Gulf. Jamason's materials describe the proportions as “almost unheard of” in the area and position the unified footprint as a generational play for buyers who value privacy, space and long sight lines to the water.
The town charter of Belleair Shore, which caps the community at 58 single-family residences and prohibits hotels and short-term rentals, is a key part of the pitch. That rigid framework, the listing argues, intensifies the scarcity value for anyone looking for a substantial stretch of sand without the backdrop of transient lodging.
How This Stacks Up Locally
Between the strict charter and the town's tiny boundaries, Belleair Shore does not see many large Gulf-front parcels come up for sale at once, and marketing materials and reporting note that comparable estate sites on Florida’s Atlantic coast often trade at higher numbers. The Business Observer points to a 2019 sale on this same run of Gulf Boulevard that landed near $16.5 million, a benchmark any fully built turnkey home here would eclipse at the top end of the projected range. Brokers quoted in the materials say the mix of limited inventory and ready-to-go plans could make the site particularly appealing to family offices and relocation buyers moving from higher tax markets.
The property is listed as active under MLS TB8502617, with showings available by appointment through the listing brokerage. The Redfin entry names Jamason as the seller's agent and shows the listing updated in early July. For neighbors, buyers and builders tracking waterfront options in Pinellas County, the combination of rare frontage, detailed turnkey plans and a tightly written town charter is likely to keep this listing on the radar for a while.
