Rosedale Highlands sits in east Bradenton, a quiet gated pocket of Manatee County with easy reach to the shops and dining that surround the Lakewood Ranch corridor. Most homes here feed into well-regarded schools — Braden River Elementary, Dr Mona Jain Middle, and Lakewood Ranch High — which is a big part of why families keep circling back to this area. If you like the idea of a manicured, low-traffic neighborhood without giving up proximity to everyday conveniences, this is that kind of place. It's also close to established communities like Braden River East and Heritage Harbour if you want to compare.
The market here is small and steady rather than frantic. With just 4 active listings and a median list price of $505,000, buyers have real choices to weigh but not a flood of them, and homes are taking a median of 64 days to sell. Sellers have been getting about 95% of asking over the past year, so there's usually room to negotiate without lowball games. If Rosedale Highlands feels tight, nearby Oneco and Bay Shore Gardens widen the search across greater Bradenton.
Rosedale Highlands is a community in Bradenton, Florida.

Rosedale Highlands FAQs
Is Rosedale Highlands a good place to live?+
It's a good fit if you want a quiet, gated setting with strong schools nearby — three of the four active listings are gated, and homes feed Braden River Elementary, Dr Mona Jain Middle, and Lakewood Ranch High. The pace is calm and family-oriented, and you're still close to the Lakewood Ranch shopping and dining corridor. For a wider set of options, Braden River East is right next door.
Is Rosedale Highlands expensive?+
It sits in the mid-market range for east Bradenton, with a median list price of $505,000 and homes generally between $475,000 and $530,000. There's nothing over $1M currently active, so it stays approachable for buyers wanting a gated single-family home. Compared with newer master-planned areas nearby, it's a solid value.
What do homes cost in Rosedale Highlands?+
Active listings run a median of $505,000, averaging about $270 per square foot on a median home size of 1,915 square feet. Over the last 12 months, 6 homes sold at a median price of $470,000. So the sold numbers land a bit under current asking prices, which tells you there's room to talk.
How is the market right now?+
It's a small, steady market with just 4 active listings and a median of 64 days on market — not a bidding-war environment. Sellers have been netting around 95% of asking over the past year, meaning well-prepared buyers can negotiate. If inventory feels thin, Heritage Harbour offers more to choose from close by.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Expect a median HOA of about $418 per month, which reflects the gated, maintained character of the community. Property taxes run around $5,337 per year at current values. Budget both into your monthly picture alongside the mortgage.
