Beneva Oaks
Big lots and mature oaks near the heart of Sarasota
Beneva Oaks is a quiet, gated pocket of Sarasota built around large lots, canopy oaks, and generously sized homes — the median here is over 5,000 square feet, so this is a neighborhood for people who want room to spread out. You're close enough to reach the beaches at Lido Key, the walkable dining of the Rosemary District, and the parks of Arlington Park without living on top of the crowds.
The market here is thin and priced accordingly. There's currently a single active listing at $1,595,000, and over the last year just four homes sold, at a median of $1,900,000. Inventory moves slowly — the median listing sits around 179 days — so buyers who find the right home here should expect to compete on quality, not on quantity, across the broader Sarasota market.
Beneva Oaks is a community in Sarasota, Florida.
