Sea Village

It suits buyers who want coastal proximity and a calm, established feel without sprawl — you're close to Lido Key beaches and downtown Sarasota's dining and arts. The neighborhood is small and low-turnover, which appeals to people looking for a settled community rather than a fast-moving subdivision. Assigned schools include Phillippi Shores Elementary, Brookside Middle, and Sarasota High School.

It sits in the mid-to-upper range for Sarasota, with the current listing at $624,900 and homes selling around a $650,000 median over the past year. At roughly $521 per square foot, you're paying a premium tied to the location and waterfront character. It's more accessible than many gated island communities but firmly above entry-level pricing.

The single active listing is priced at $624,900, and the median home runs about 1,200 square feet at $521 per square foot. Recent sales landed at a $650,000 median, so plan for a budget in that low-to-mid $600s range for what's typically available. Comparable options exist in nearby Arlington Park if you want to widen the search.

It's thin and slow-moving by design — just one active listing and three sales in the past twelve months. Homes take a median of 84 days to sell, and sellers are getting about 96% of asking on average, so there's modest room to negotiate but not a fire sale. When something you like appears, be ready to act, because replacements don't come often.

The median HOA here runs about $781 per month, which is on the higher side and often reflects waterfront or shared-amenity maintenance. Property taxes come in around $6,131 per year at current values. Always confirm exactly what the HOA covers for a specific property before you write an offer.
