Wildwood Acres sits within easy reach of everything that makes Sarasota appealing — a short hop to the shops and galleries of the Rosemary District, the green lawns and courts of Arlington Park, and the Gulf beaches out on Lido Key. It's a small, residential pocket where two of the active listings sit behind gates, and homes here run to a comfortable scale around 2,000 square feet. Families tend to land in the Ashton Elementary, Sarasota Middle, and Riverview High School zone.
The market is tight and unhurried: just four homes are listed right now, priced from $420,000 to $699,000 with a $552,500 median. Over the past year six homes changed hands at a $462,500 median sold price, with sellers collecting about 96% of asking. Expect to spend time on the search — the typical listing takes roughly 77 days to go under contract, so patience pays here more than speed does.
Wildwood Acres is a community in Sarasota, Florida.
