Village Green Forest Lake
Quiet Sarasota living with a central address
Village Green Forest Lake is an established residential pocket in Sarasota, the kind of low-key neighborhood where mature trees and single-family streets sit within an easy reach of the city's cultural core. You're close to the beach life of Lido Key, the walkable energy of the Rosemary District, and the everyday-park feel of Arlington Park — all without paying a barrier-island premium.
The market reality here is simple: this is a small, tightly held neighborhood with no homes currently listed. Over the last 12 months only 5 homes changed hands, at a median sold price of $260,000, and sellers took home about 95% of asking on average. If you want in, you'll likely need patience and a ready agent, since inventory across Sarasota moves quickly at this price point.

Village Green Forest Lake FAQs
Is Village Green Forest Lake a good place to live?+
It's a good fit if you want a quiet, established Sarasota neighborhood with a central location rather than a resort address. You're close to beaches, downtown, and neighborhoods like Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores, and the streets feel settled with long-term owners.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
Compared to Sarasota's waterfront and barrier-island communities, no — homes here sold at a median of $260,000 over the past 12 months. That makes it one of the more approachable ways into a central Sarasota address.
What do homes cost in Village Green Forest Lake?+
There are no active listings right now, but the last 12 months give a clear read: 5 homes sold at a median price of $260,000. Because turnover is low, expect to move quickly when something does come to market.
How is the market here right now?+
Inventory is essentially zero at the moment, and only 5 homes sold in the past year, so this is a tightly held neighborhood. Sellers averaged about 95% of their asking price, which tells you demand is steady and there isn't much room for lowball offers.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
We don't have current HOA or tax figures published for this specific neighborhood, so it's best to confirm those on a per-property basis. When a home comes up, we'll pull the exact HOA, tax, and any deed-restriction details before you write an offer.
