Osprey sits on the Gulf side of Sarasota County, a quiet stretch of Little Sarasota Bay where boaters, golfers, and families all find their footing. It's the kind of place where you can live in a country-club setting like the Oaks or keep a boat slip at Southbay Yacht & Racquet Club, and still be minutes from the beaches and top-rated schools that draw people here. The pace is unhurried, the water is close, and the whole area feeds into Pine View School, one of Florida's most sought-after magnet programs.

For buyers, the market is active but not frantic: 93 homes are listed right now with a median price of $649,000, and homes are taking a median 95 days to sell. That patience shows up at the closing table too — sellers have been getting about 94% of asking across the 216 sales in the past year. If you're weighing options, it's worth watching just reduced listings and comparing single-family homes against the deep pool of townhomes & condos.

Osprey is in Sarasota County, Florida.
