Tregate Manor is an age-restricted 55-plus condominium community built in 1973 on the south side of Stickney Point Road, between Swift Road and the Tamiami Trail, in the Gulf Gate area of Sarasota (community real estate guides, 2026).
This is a low-maintenance, lock-and-leave kind of place. Units are generally two-bedroom, two-bath floor plans, and the community carries shared amenities including a pool and a clubhouse. The condo fee typically bundles a wide set of services, which is part of the value but also part of the carrying-cost math you have to read carefully.
The location is the pitch. Tregate Manor sits within walking distance of the Gulf Gate shops and restaurants, a short drive from the Stickney Point Road bridge to Siesta Key, and close to the Tamiami Trail for the run into downtown Sarasota and out to I-75.
Because this is an older condo building, the money is made or lost on the specific unit, the building's milestone inspection and reserve study status under current Florida law, and an honest read of the monthly fee and any pending special assessment, not the headline price.
