South Poinsettia Park sits in the coveted West-of-Trail pocket of Sarasota, a quiet residential enclave where mature landscaping and low-key streets put you within easy reach of the bay, the beaches, and the city core. Most homes here come with a private pool, and new construction has arrived alongside long-established houses, giving the neighborhood a mix of old-Florida charm and modern build quality. You're close to the culture and dining of the Rosemary District and a short hop from the sand at Lido Key, with the walkable, park-anchored feel of nearby Arlington Park just around the corner.
South Poinsettia Park is a community in Sarasota, Florida.

What do homes cost in South Poinsettia Park?+
Active listings currently range from $625,000 to $4,490,000, with a median list price of $3,190,000 on a median home size of about 3,246 square feet. Over the past 12 months, 23 homes sold at a median price of $1,875,000, so closed prices run well below the current asking range as newer, higher-end inventory comes online.
How is the market here right now?+
There are 10 active listings, and homes take a median of 64 days to sell, so buyers have room to be deliberate. Sellers are getting about 94% of asking on average, which means there's typically some negotiating space. With 23 sales in the past year, this is a low-volume, high-value market.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
There's no reported HOA for the neighborhood, so you won't be carrying monthly association dues on most homes here. The median property tax runs about $13,426 per year, which tracks with the area's higher home values. Budget for taxes and insurance rather than HOA costs when running your numbers.
