Southpointe Shores is a small, water-oriented pocket of southern Sarasota where the pace runs slower than the tourist strips and homes sit on generous lots close to Little Sarasota Bay. It's the kind of address that draws buyers who want space and a boating lifestyle without giving up quick access to the rest of Sarasota — the beaches of Lido Key, the galleries of the Rosemary District, and the leafy streets of Arlington Park are all a short drive north.
This is a thin, high-end market where inventory moves fast when it appears. There's just one active listing right now at $995,000, and the two homes sold over the past twelve months closed at a median of $2,290,500 — a wide spread that tells you home value here swings hard on lot, water frontage, and condition. Sellers averaged 97% of asking and the current listing went pending fast, so serious buyers should be ready to move.
Southpointe Shores is a community in Sarasota, Florida.

Southpointe Shores FAQs
Is Southpointe Shores a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who want a spacious, water-oriented home in a low-key part of southern Sarasota. Assigned schools include Gulf Gate Elementary, Brookside Middle, and Riverview High, and you're close to Lido Key beaches and downtown Sarasota. The very low $25/month median HOA is a plus for those who want space without heavy community fees.
Is Southpointe Shores expensive?+
Yes — this is an upper-tier Sarasota neighborhood. The single active listing is priced at $995,000, while the two homes sold in the past year closed at a median of $2,290,500. Prices swing widely based on lot size and water frontage, so the range here is real.
What do homes cost in Southpointe Shores?+
The current active listing is $995,000, and at an average of about $299 per square foot on a roughly 3,324-square-foot median home, you're looking at substantial, roomy properties. Recent sales pushed much higher — a median sold price of $2,290,500 — reflecting premium waterfront homes. Compare it against neighboring areas like Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores to gauge value.
How is the market in Southpointe Shores?+
It's a thin, fast-moving market. Only one home is active right now, and it went pending in about a day, while sellers over the past year averaged 97% of their asking price. Low inventory means buyers should be pre-approved and ready to act when a home hits.
What are the HOA fees and property taxes like?+
The median HOA here is just $25 a month, which is unusually light for Sarasota. Median property taxes run about $4,609 a year, though that figure will scale up with the higher-priced waterfront homes in the neighborhood.
