Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.

The edgeAI estimate is a starting point, not an appraisal or a broker price opinion. It is generated from public records, listing data and market modeling, and is subject to change once a licensed real estate professional personally inspects the property. Condition, floor, view and lot are not fully captured by any model — ask us for a full comparative market analysis.

01Positioned at the premium end
$1,546,577 runs 171% above the Sarasota median — but at 2,460 sqft it's also 47% larger than the typical Sarasota listing.
02Park/Greenbelt & Trees/Woods & Water views
The park/greenbelt and trees/woods and water view is part of what you're buying — views hold value independently of the structure.
03Know the monthly fee
The association fee is $844/mo. That usually buys real services — verify what's covered before comparing this home against fee-free alternatives.
04Fresh on the market
