Desoto Lakes Country Club Colony sits inland from the coast, a quiet residential pocket where modestly sized homes on generous lots draw buyers who want space without a downtown price tag. It's an easy drive to the beach and cultural draws further west, and it keeps you close to established Sarasota neighborhoods like Arlington Park and the waterfront character of Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores.
For buyers, this is one of the more approachable corners of the market. The median list price sits at $274,000 with 23 active listings ranging from $155,000 to $499,000, and homes are averaging $192 per square foot. If you've been priced out of coastal Sarasota homes for sale or the buzz of the Rosemary District, this neighborhood is worth a serious look.
Desoto Lakes Country Club Colony is a community in Sarasota, Florida.
