About this home
7402 CASTLE DRIVE
Two private acres, a resort-style pool, and a separate guest house, all tucked away in the quiet enclave of Racimo Ranches—one of Sarasota’s rare remaining pockets of true acreage living. Established when east Sarasota was still largely rural, Racimo Ranches offers something increasingly difficult to find today: space, privacy, and the freedom to create your own lifestyle, all just minutes from the conveniences of Sarasota. Here, you have the opportunity to own a piece of old Sarasota that simply can’t be recreated. This fully fenced property offers room to breathe and space to make your own. The main residence features three bedrooms plus a den and two-and-a-half baths, with crown molding, solid wood doors, and an easy, open flow between the living and dining areas. The kitchen is a natural gathering spot, with granite counters that wrap into a generous bar for seating and entertaining, custom cabinetry, a gas range, and stainless steel appliances. Out back, the Florida lifestyle takes center stage with a resort-style pool and six-person spa, outdoor shower, covered deck, and screened patio—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The separate guest house, complete with its own A/C and water heater, offers a versatile blank canvas for visiting family, long-term guests, a home office, or creative studio. An extended driveway and storage shed provide plenty of room for vehicles, a boat, or an RV. Many of the major systems have been updated, including the roof and reverse osmosis system (2015), A/C with zoned controls (2016), and exterior paint (2022). A rare combination of acreage, privacy, versatility, and location, 7402 Castle Drive offers a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly hard to find in Sarasota. Schedule your private showing today.

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.
