South Gate Estates

South Gate - Sarasota

South Gate is one of Sarasota's largest and most established deed-restricted communities, offering a prime central location with quick access to downtown, Siesta Key, US 41, and Bee Ridge. Developed in the 1950s and 60s, the area retains its Mid Century Character with ranch homes, wide lawns, tree-lined streets, and a classic Florida charm. The community features a unique optional membership for the South Gate Community Center, which hosts events and programs along Phillippi Creek and is home to an iconic clubhouse designed by Victor Lundy. The neighborhood provides waterfront and creek access, as homes along Phillippi Creek allow for activities like kayaking and paddleboarding, and offer desirable water views at a more approachable price point. With nearly 2,000 homes in diverse styles and sizes, the market snapshot appeals to families, retirees, and professionals seeking convenience, with pricing ranging from entry-level Sarasota homes to fully renovated creekfront properties.
