Forest At Hi Hat Ranch
Acreage estates on Sarasota County ranch land
Forest At Hi Hat Ranch trades the density of coastal North Venice for room to breathe — a small enclave of large-lot estates set on former ranch land east of the city. It's the kind of place where privacy, land, and equestrian-friendly space matter more than walkability, and it draws buyers who want a custom home with acreage while staying inside Sarasota County. Families here are assigned to well-regarded schools including Riverview High School, Sarasota Middle School, and Lakeview Elementary School.
This is a thin, high-end market, so expectations should be calibrated accordingly. There are currently no active listings in Forest At Hi Hat Ranch, but 5 homes have sold over the past 12 months at a median price of $2,500,000, with sellers collecting about 95% of asking. If you're comparing options, it's worth widening your search to the broader North Venice homes for sale or checking neighboring communities like Venetian Golf And River Club and Everglade Estates while inventory here is scarce.

Straight answers
Forest At Hi Hat Ranch FAQs
Is Forest At Hi Hat Ranch a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who prioritize land, privacy, and a custom estate over a walkable, amenity-dense neighborhood. The setting on former ranch land keeps things quiet, and families benefit from assignments to Riverview High School and other well-regarded schools. It's inland Sarasota County living rather than coastal.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
Yes — this is a luxury tier. The median sold price over the last 12 months was $2,500,000, placing it well above most of the surrounding market. If that's a stretch, comparable options in North Venice span a wider price range.
What do homes cost in Forest At Hi Hat Ranch?+
With no active listings right now, the clearest signal is the sold data: 5 homes closed in the past year at a median of $2,500,000. Because these are large-lot estates, pricing varies significantly with acreage and the home itself.
How is the market right now?+
It's a low-inventory, high-value market with zero homes currently active and just 5 sales in the past 12 months. Sellers have averaged about 95% of their asking price, so serious buyers should be ready to move when a listing appears — or watch the live map for new inventory.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Specific HOA and tax figures aren't available for the neighborhood right now, which is common for a small enclave with so few recent transactions. For estate properties like these, taxes track closely with assessed value, so budget accordingly at the $2.5M median. We can pull exact figures on any individual property you're considering.
