Exceptional Commercial Waterfront Lot on Monroe Canal – St. James City, FL

Rarely does a commercial waterfront property like this become available in the heart of St. James City—a laid-back island community known for its thriving fishing industry, charming marinas, and direct access to some of Southwest Florida’s most treasured waterways. This unique parcel is a blank slate ready for your vision, with premium boating infrastructure and utilities already in place.

Located directly on the Monroe Canal with unrestricted Gulf access and no bridges, this property is perfectly positioned for a range of marine-related commercial uses. The site features a total of seven boat spaces, comprising six boat lifts and one slip, each with water and electric service at the docks. Three of these lifts are currently leased for income, providing an excellent revenue stream, while four are actively used for a thriving commercial fishing operation. Of the six lifts, five are sized for recreational boats, accommodating vessels between 25 and 27 feet in length with weight capacities of 8,000 to 10,000 pounds, and one lift is designed for heavy commercial use. All lifts operate properly and are maintained to high standards. Additionally, the single boat slip is currently rented to a sailboat tenant, adding to the property’s cash flow potential.

A spacious Captain’s Walk runs the length of the dock, offering easy access to each lift for loading, unloading, and vessel maintenance. Included with the sale is a professionally engineered and stamped QUAD site plan, which outlines a dock configuration already approved for the addition of a high-capacity lift for very large commercial vessels—ideal for water taxis, charter services, or marine repair operations.

The lot is fully serviced with water and electric utilities, and parking blocks have already been laid out, providing the potential for organized customer or tenant parking, or even a pay-to-park income stream. Surrounded by other successful marine and commercial businesses, the location is not only practical but also strategically positioned within a strong local economy supported by tourism, boating, and fishing.

St. James City, located on the southern end of Pine Island, is a uniquely Floridian coastal village that has retained its old-Florida charm. With a reputation for world-class fishing, kayaking, boating, and direct access to Pine Island Sound, Sanibel, Captiva, Cayo Costa, and the open Gulf, it remains a hidden gem for those who live and work on the water. This property stands out as one of the few undeveloped commercial lots with this level of boating infrastructure, zoning flexibility, and Gulf access. Whether you’re starting a new venture or expanding your existing operations, this is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to establish your footprint in one of Florida’s most desirable waterfront communities.
