The same recorded closings, split into thirds by living area. Find the row your home falls in: the $/sqft figure times your square footage is the recorded-sales bracket for homes like yours here — a starting range from real closings, not a valuation of your specific property. Larger homes here have been selling at a higher price per square foot than smaller ones ($654 vs $553) — less common, and usually a sign of newer or upgraded product at the top of the range.
| Size group | Median $/sqft | Median sold | Sold range | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smaller homes 956–1,280 sq ft | $553 | $660,000 | $475,000 – $730,000 | 5 |
| Mid-size homes 1,280–1,540 sq ft | $625 | $800,000 | $650,000 – $1,100,000 | 5 |
| Larger homes 1,645–2,146 sq ft | $654 | $1,125,000 | $940,000 – $1,505,000 | 5 |

At GULF & BAY CLUB BAYSIDE’s $675,000 median and Sarasota County’s adopted 13.48 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $9,100 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $8,570 with the full Florida homestead exemption — a buyer’s first-year figure; a long-time owner’s Save Our Homes cap can be far lower, which is one reason resale taxes jump at closing. Municipal and special-district millage varies inside the county; see the Sarasota County tax page.
