Bent Tree sits inland from Sarasota's Gulf beaches, in the part of town where mature trees, quiet streets and generous lots set the pace. It's a settled, low-key corner of Sarasota that feels a world away from the buzz of the Rosemary District or the beach traffic on Lido Key, yet keeps you a manageable drive from all of it. Families gravitate here for the assigned schools — Lakeview Elementary, Sarasota Middle and Sarasota High.
The market here is small and tightly held. There are just 3 active listings right now, with a median list price of $289,000, so buyers should expect limited choice and move decisively when the right home appears. For comparison-shoppers, nearby options like Sky Ranch and Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores are worth keeping on your radar while inventory stays thin.
Bent Tree is a community in Sarasota, Florida.

Is Bent Tree a good place to live?+
It's a quiet, established inland neighborhood that suits buyers who want a settled pace away from beach traffic. The assigned schools — Lakeview Elementary, Sarasota Middle and Sarasota High — make it a practical pick for families, while downtown Sarasota and the Gulf beaches remain a short drive off.
Is Bent Tree expensive?+
No — it's one of the more accessible corners of the area, with a median list price of $289,000. That's a reasonable entry point compared with coastal Sarasota pockets like Lido Key, where prices climb much higher.
What do homes cost in Bent Tree?+
Right now there are 3 active listings with a median list price of $289,000. Inventory is limited, so the mix of what's available can shift quickly — it's worth watching new listings closely.
How is the market in Bent Tree?+
It's a small, tightly held market with just 3 homes currently active and no recorded sales in the past 12 months. That means limited selection, so buyers should be ready to act when a home that fits comes up; broadening your search to nearby Sarasota neighborhoods can help while inventory is thin.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
