Venice lots sell for $3.1 million

The last two parcels of the Myakka Crossings development in Venice have sold.

Lot 2 at 8927 S. Tamiami Trail is 1.15 acres and sold for $1.37 million. Lot 4 at 8951 S. Tamiami Trail is 1.38 acres and sold for $1.75 million. 

The buyer, according to Loyd Robbins & Co., was a Nokomis medical group planning quick service restaurants for the properties. The group, which is operating under an LLC, also own a 2.6-acre parcel adjacent to the development.

The lots are part of the Myakka Crossing Commercial Park, a 7.5-acre mixed-use development between Venice and North Port near Wellen Park. 

Robbins says local resident Brad Baker began assembling the property in 1984 and purchased the final portion in 2022. 

The Sarasota commercial real estate firm previously sold a parcel where a 7-Eleven has been built and a parcel where a 100,000-square-foot climate-controlled storage facility is planned.
