West of Trail

West of Trail Sarasota is a coveted collection of Sarasota neighborhoods that are located south of Downtown and west of Tamiami Trail, also known as US Route 41. This area is a blend of families, empty-nesters, retirees, and young professionals that mostly call Sarasota home year-round.

The area West of the Trail is made up of smaller neighborhoods, each with its own character. Architecture varies from cozy cottages to million-dollar estates with grand bay views. Residents here enjoy their convenient location to downtown Sarasota and the white sugar sands of Siesta Key. They also appreciate the quiet streets with mature landscaping, a five-star school district and their own village with a gourmet market, eclectic shopping, coffee houses and a variety of local restaurants.
