Brentwood Estates sits in Sarasota's practical middle — close enough to the coast to feel the pull of Lido Key and the galleries near Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores, but far enough inland to keep the price of entry sane. It's a neighborhood of right-sized single-family homes on quiet streets, anchored by Brentwood Elementary and a short hop to the parks and cafes around Arlington Park. Buyers here trade the beachfront premium for space, convenience, and a straightforward commute across town.
The market is tight and moving fast: only 4 homes are active right now, with a median list price of $417,000 and a median 8.5 days on market. Over the past year 21 homes sold at a median of $332,000, with sellers pocketing about 99% of asking — a sign that well-priced listings don't linger. If this pocket feels narrow, it's worth widening the net across Sarasota homes for sale to compare.
Brentwood Estates is a community in Sarasota, Florida.

Brentwood Estates FAQs
Is Brentwood Estates a good place to live?+
It's a solid pick for buyers who want to be central in Sarasota without paying beachfront prices — you're a manageable drive from downtown, the coast, and Arlington Park. Homes are right-sized single-family properties, and the area feeds Brentwood Elementary, McIntosh Middle, and Sarasota High. Tampa International Airport is about 73 minutes away.
Is Brentwood Estates expensive?+
It's one of the more approachable Sarasota pockets, with a median list price of $417,000 and homes ranging from $339,000 to $550,000. That's well below the coastal premium you'd pay near Lido Key. At about $314 per square foot, you're paying for convenience and space rather than a beach address.
What do homes cost in Brentwood Estates?+
Active listings currently run from $339,000 to $550,000 with a median list of $417,000, while homes that actually sold over the past year closed at a median of $332,000. The typical home is around 1,314 square feet. With only 4 homes active right now, inventory is thin, so serious buyers should be ready to move.
How is the market in Brentwood Estates?+
It's fast and competitive — the median days on market is just 8.5, and 21 homes sold over the last 12 months with sellers averaging 99% of their asking price. That means little room for lowball offers on well-priced homes. If you want more options, it helps to also watch the broader Sarasota homes for sale market.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA here runs about $729 a month, which is on the higher side and worth checking against what each community covers. Property taxes are modest at a median of roughly $3,003 a year. Always confirm the specific fees and what they include before you write an offer.
