West of the Trail

The most desirable neighborhoods on the mainland of Sarasota

As the name suggests, the majestic properties and estates that make up West of the Trail sit on the ocean side of South Tamiami Trail, bordered by Mound Street to the north and Bay Road to the south.

Historic, prestigious, and sought after only begin to describe West of the Trail real estate. Select neighborhoods include Harbor Acres, Cherokee Park, Coral Cove, Granada, The Landings, McClellan Park, Oyster Bay, and Southpointe Shores. Architectural styles vary widely in each of these exclusive neighborhoods and feature contemporary, Spanish Mediterranean, renovated bungalows, and bayfront mansions alike.

Situated just south of downtown Sarasota, West of the Trail neighborhoods offer convenient access to Southside Elementary School, the shops and businesses of Southside Village, and Sarasota Memorial Hospital. Professionals and their families who make their home West of the Trail appreciate the accessibility of downtown amenities while enjoying the secluded, distinctive charm and elegance of old Florida.

Our move to Sarasota has turned into a blessing in our life. We have you to thank for this occurance. The overwhelming effect on our lives from the people to whom you have introduced us continues to grow and enrich our lives. Through the new contacts we are looking forward to more opportunities to work with and help children than we ever thought possible.

Now that we are pretty settled in our new home in Sarasota, I wanted to formally thank you for helping us find this fabulous place. You were a pleasure to work with and gave us a great education on the real estate market in this area. Under your guidance, we found the right home, at the right price, and in the right area for our family situation. By your being patient, we were able to see and study all the alternative neighborhoods and lifestyle situations. We knew it wouldn't be easy coming from Connecticut and finding the right place here, but with your help, we absolutely did. Thanks again, and please give potential clients our name as a reference for you and your company. Most sincerely, Richard B.
