Is Phillippi Cove expensive?+
It sits in a solid mid-to-upper Sarasota price range, with a median sold price of $620,000 over the past 12 months. That reflects an established neighborhood rather than an entry-level one, so budget accordingly.
What do homes cost in Phillippi Cove?+
There are no active listings right now, so pricing is best judged by recent sales — the median sold price was $620,000 across 4 homes in the last year. Because inventory is so thin, it helps to also watch nearby communities like Arlington Park for comparable options.
How is the market in Phillippi Cove?+
It's a tight, low-turnover market: zero homes are currently listed and only 4 sold in the past 12 months. Sellers averaged about 94% of asking, which tells you deals get done at fair, negotiated numbers rather than in bidding frenzies.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
