Zahrada 2 is the second phase of one of Sarasota’s most distinctive and contemporary residential communities, offering a rare blend of modern architecture, flexible living spaces, and an urban garden-inspired atmosphere in the heart of the Rosemary District. Designed for those who appreciate minimalist aesthetics, walkable city living, and smart, functional layouts, Zahrada 2 builds on the success of the original Zahrada with a boutique collection of townhomes and condominiums that continue to push the boundaries of design and lifestyle innovation.
Developed by award-winning architect and developer Jonathan Parks and overseen by MODA Partners, Zahrada 2 reflects a European sensibility in both its name—“Zahrada” means “garden” in Czech—and its emphasis on livability, natural light, and outdoor integration. The building’s architecture is sleek and sculptural, with clean lines, bold geometric volumes, and abundant glass. The small-scale, low-rise format allows each unit to function more like a private home than a conventional condominium, offering a heightened sense of individuality and privacy.
The project includes a total of 18 residential units, a mix of two-story townhomes and single-level flats, along with five street-level commercial spaces that enhance the live/work lifestyle potential. Residences range in size from approximately 1,100 to over 2,500 square feet, with thoughtful floor plans that cater to a variety of owners, from full-time downtown residents to seasonal buyers and professionals who work remotely. Most homes include private outdoor courtyards or terraces, direct street access, and enclosed private garages—features rarely found in downtown Sarasota.
Zahrada 2 interiors are refined yet understated, showcasing high ceilings, open-concept layouts, and large windows that create light-filled living spaces. Kitchens feature European-style cabinetry, quartz countertops, and high-end appliances, while bathrooms are designed with a spa-like simplicity and functionality. Large-format tile or engineered wood flooring, floating vanities, and minimalist lighting round out the modern, tailored aesthetic.
One of Zahrada 2’s standout characteristics is its garden-forward philosophy. Landscaped courtyards, green walls, and private patios encourage indoor-outdoor living while creating a peaceful urban oasis amidst the vibrancy of the Rosemary District. The building’s scale and orientation maximize privacy and natural ventilation, while its energy-efficient design and low-maintenance materials support long-term sustainability.
The Rosemary District itself is one of Sarasota’s most creative and fast-evolving neighborhoods, located just north of downtown and a short walk to the waterfront. Zahrada 2 places residents steps from some of the city’s most beloved coffee shops, restaurants, galleries, and cultural destinations. The Bay Park, Sarasota Opera House, Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, and Whole Foods are all within a short distance, making it easy to enjoy Sarasota’s world-class arts and entertainment offerings without getting in a car.
In addition to its walkability, Zahrada 2 is ideal for those who value flexibility. Select residences are zoned for live/work, making it easy to run a small business, studio, or office right from home. Others are designed for multi-generational living, offering private guest suites or multiple entrances. This versatility, paired with the project’s boutique scale, makes Zahrada 2 one of the most adaptable and forward-thinking residential options in Sarasota today.
Zahrada 2 is not a high-rise condo, and that’s precisely its appeal. It’s designed for people who want modern architecture, private space, and a connection to both the neighborhood and the outdoors. Whether you're a creative professional, an empty nester, or a couple looking to downsize without compromising on design, Zahrada 2 offers a compelling mix of style, substance, and Sarasota spirit.
