About this home
5174 MARSH FIELD LANE UNIT 86
A FRESH TAKE ON SARASOTA LIVING — beautifully updated, light-filled, and perfectly positioned within The Meadows. Some homes simply have a great floor plan. Others have a setting that makes you want to stay awhile. This exceptional corner residence in Heronmere II at The Meadows offers both. Set among mature landscaping and the distinctive architecture of one of Sarasota’s most established communities, this spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath condominium offers 1,444 square feet of comfortable living space with the added benefit of being a corner/end unit. Multiple exposures bring beautiful natural light throughout the home, creating an airy, welcoming atmosphere from the moment you step inside. The heart of the home is the updated kitchen, offering generous cabinetry, solid-surface countertops, ample workspace, and large windows that keep the space bright and connected to the surrounding greenery. The open living and dining areas provide plenty of room to entertain or simply settle into an easy Sarasota lifestyle. The primary suite is a peaceful retreat, featuring a walk-in closet and an updated private bath. A second bedroom and beautifully updated guest bath provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or whatever your lifestyle requires. The dedicated laundry room adds everyday convenience and valuable storage. Step through to the enclosed lanai, where the pace slows and the view takes over. With peaceful golf-course and lush landscape views, this is the kind of space that invites morning coffee, afternoon reading, or an evening glass of wine. Recent improvements and thoughtful preparation make this home move-in ready, including NEW AC SYSTEM, while the covered parking, abundant guest parking and community pool add to its everyday ease. And then there is The Meadows — a Sarasota lifestyle known for its mature landscaping, miles of scenic walking and biking paths, lakes, green spaces, and an active community atmosphere. Optional memberships provide access to golf, tennis, fitness, social activities and additional club amenities, allowing you to create the lifestyle that fits you. Just minutes from University Town Center, I-75, shopping, dining and Nathan Benderson Park, with downtown Sarasota and the Gulf Coast’s renowned beaches within easy reach, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of Sarasota without sacrificing comfort or convenience. Beautifully refreshed. Thoughtfully positioned. Ready for its next chapter. Come see why this corner residence feels like more than a condo — it feels like home.

Value check
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.
