Foxfire
Spacious East Sarasota Living Near Top Schools
Foxfire sits on Sarasota's east side, a neighborhood of larger lots and generously sized homes where the median floor plan runs just over 4,000 square feet. The pace here is quieter than the barrier islands, but you're still within easy reach of Sarasota's cultural core and the beaches beyond, and the area feeds into some of the county's most sought-after schools. Buyers who want room to spread out — pool space, waterfront frontage, real square footage — tend to gravitate here rather than to the denser coastal pockets.
The market is thin and priced at the top of the range right now: the single active listing is a $2,400,000 waterfront home, while the two sales over the past year closed at a median of $900,000. That gap tells you Foxfire is a low-turnover neighborhood where a marquee property can skew the headline number. If you're comparing options, it's worth weighing Foxfire against nearby Sarasota homes for sale and coastal alternatives like Lido Key, Arlington Park, and Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores.

Foxfire FAQs
Is Foxfire a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who want space and quiet with quick access to Sarasota's beaches, downtown, and cultural venues. The neighborhood feeds into Riverview High School, Sarasota Middle School, and Lakeview Elementary School, and the median HOA of $142 a month keeps things simple. If you'd rather be closer to the water, Lido Key offers a very different coastal lifestyle.
Is Foxfire expensive?+
It can be at the top end — the one active listing is priced at $2,400,000 — but the two homes sold over the past year closed at a median of $900,000. That spread reflects a small neighborhood where a single high-end property can dominate the current inventory, so actual entry points vary widely.
What do homes cost in Foxfire?+
The current active listing is $2,400,000 and works out to about $595 per square foot on a roughly 4,036-square-foot home. Recent sales tell a more grounded story, with a median sold price of $900,000 over the last 12 months.
How is the Foxfire market right now?+
It's tight and low-volume: just one active listing against two sales in the past year, with homes taking a median of 44 days to sell. Sellers averaged about 106% of asking, so well-priced homes move quickly when they do come up. It's worth tracking broader Sarasota homes for sale alongside Foxfire given how few options list here.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA runs $142 a month, which is modest for a neighborhood of this size. Property taxes are the bigger line item, with a median of $24,757 a year reflecting the higher-end values in the area.
