Fairway Woods
Quiet South Sarasota living close to it all
Fairway Woods is a small, low-key residential pocket of south Sarasota, the kind of place where turnover is slow and neighbors tend to stay put. You're within easy reach of the coast — from the beaches at Lido Key to the arts-and-dining energy of the Rosemary District — while still landing in a calmer, more affordable part of the county than the barrier islands or Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores.
For buyers, this is a patience market. There are zero active listings right now, and only four homes sold here over the past twelve months, so opportunities surface rarely and move when they do. The good news: at a $312,000 median sold price, Fairway Woods is one of the more attainable footholds in the Sarasota market, and sellers have been getting about 97% of asking, which tells you pricing here stays realistic.

Fairway Woods FAQs
Is Fairway Woods a good place to live?+
It's a quiet, established residential neighborhood in south Sarasota that suits buyers who want calm over flash. You're a manageable drive from Lido Key and downtown Sarasota, with assigned schools including Gulf Gate Elementary, Sarasota Middle, and Riverview High.
Is Fairway Woods expensive?+
No — it's one of the more affordable corners of the Sarasota market. The median sold price over the last twelve months was $312,000, well below what you'd pay on the barrier islands or in premium waterfront pockets.
What do homes cost in Fairway Woods?+
Recent sales point to a median around $312,000, based on the four homes that closed in the past year. There are no active listings at the moment, so a serious buyer should be ready to act quickly when one comes up in Sarasota.
How is the market in Fairway Woods?+
It's thin and slow-moving by design — only four homes sold in the past twelve months and nothing is active today. Sellers have been getting roughly 97% of their asking price, which signals steady, realistic pricing rather than aggressive negotiation.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
We don't have current HOA or property tax figures on file for the neighborhood given how few homes have traded recently. Your agent can pull exact carrying costs on any specific property once a listing comes to market, and Florida's homestead exemption can meaningfully lower the tax bill for owner-occupants.
