The Country Club Of Sarasota

It's a gated neighborhood with large homes and a quiet, established feel, which suits buyers who want privacy and space. Homes here average 2,836 square feet, and both current listings include a pool. You're also close to the beaches at Lido Key and the rest of what Sarasota offers.

It sits in the upper-mid range for Sarasota, with a median list price of $830,000 and listings running from $700,000 to $960,000. Over the last year homes sold at a median of $735,000, so actual closing prices tend to land below list. At roughly $291 per square foot, you're paying for larger, gated homes.

Active listings are priced with a median of $830,000, ranging from $700,000 to $960,000. The average price works out to about $291 per square foot on a median home size of 2,836 square feet. Recent sales closed at a median of $735,000.

Inventory is very tight — only 2 active listings at the moment — but 17 homes sold over the past 12 months, so turnover is steady. Homes take a median of 42 days to sell, and sellers are getting about 94% of asking. That gives a prepared buyer some negotiating room without a lot of competing supply.

The median HOA here runs about $131 per month, which is reasonable for a gated community with these home sizes. Median property taxes come in around $5,866 per year. Both figures are worth confirming per listing, since taxes shift with assessed value.
