Wyndham is a small, deed-restricted community of about 63 single-family homes built by national builder Lennar in the late 1990s, set in the wooded eastern edge of 17th Street, less than half a mile east of Honore Avenue, in the Fruitville area of Sarasota (sarasotabayrealestate.com and sarasotaone.com community guides).
The community was platted as a close-knit enclave along two streets and a cul-de-sac, with two lakes and a greenbelt along its 17th Street frontage. Homes are concrete block construction, generally two to three bedrooms in roughly 1,500 to 2,200 square feet, with tile roofs, two-car garages, high ceilings, and open kitchens; some have private pools, lake, or preserve views, which are usually treated as upgrades.
Wyndham is maintenance-free: the HOA fee covers lawn and grounds upkeep and irrigation along with the community pool, which makes it a lock-and-leave option. At this age, the read is per home, with roof, systems, and insurance the items to confirm during diligence.
The pitch is small-community, maintenance-free living in a growing corridor: Wyndham sits near Interstate 75, the Mall at University Town Center, Nathan Benderson Park, and the established Meadows community, with downtown Sarasota and the Gulf keys a reasonable drive west. The work is reading the specific home and lot, and verifying the HOA, roof, and insurance before you fall for a view.
