Center Gate Estates Village 4 is a villa section inside the larger Center Gate community in central Sarasota, located just south of Bee Ridge Road and west of I-75, between the Bee Ridge and Clark Road corridors (community guides and association records, 2025 to 2026). The broader Center Gate development is comprised of single-family homes and several hundred maintenance-free villa condominiums spread across distinct villages, of which Village 4 is one.
The villas here offer the maintenance-free Florida lifestyle, with the association handling exterior upkeep and landscaping, and many villa sections of Center Gate include shared features such as a community pool, greenbelts, lakes, and private roads. Confirm the exact amenities, dues, and what is covered for Village 4 specifically.
Center Gate was developed from roughly the late 1970s through the early 1990s, and its master association was established in 1977 (community and association records). That means established villa stock where the read is condition driven: roof age, systems, and the condo association's reserve and milestone-inspection posture under current Florida law.
The pitch is location plus low-maintenance living: a central Sarasota address with quick access to shopping, services, I-75, and the Gulf beaches, in a maintenance-free villa format. The work is reading the association budget, the reserves, the dues, and the condition of the specific unit before you fall for a price.
