It's a small, low-key pocket surrounded by neighboring communities like Lake Forest Estates, Sunset Harbor, and Sagamore Estates, with assigned schools including Ida M. Stewart Elementary School and Manatee High School. Families here trade a fast commute for proximity to the water and the beaches just across the bridge.
The market is genuinely thin — just 2 active listings right now, with a median list price of $962,500 spanning $425,000 to $1.5M.
