Magnolia Point is a compact, gated neighborhood in Sarasota County where the appeal is simple: a quiet, low-key community within reach of everything that makes Sarasota worth the move. You're not far from the Gulf life on Lido Key, the walkable arts-and-dining energy of the Rosemary District, or the older-Florida charm of Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores.
The market here is thin by design — this is a small enclave, so inventory moves at its own pace. Right now there's a single active listing at $474,900, while homes that sold over the past year closed at a median of $552,500. Expect to negotiate: sellers have been getting about 94% of asking, and well-priced homes still take patience to trade in a neighborhood this size.
Magnolia Point is a community in Sarasota, Florida.
