Family sells Sarasota County ‘oasis’ for $40 million
One of the last remaining big chunks of agricultural land west of Interstate 75 has been bought up for a high-end development, and at what is likely a record land price.
The 80 acres near Stickney Point Road, owned by one of the region’s founding families, is being bought by British home building giant Taylor Woodrow for $40 million.
The same developer that had been chasing Sarasota’s Pier 550, Taylor Woodrow plans 360 homes on the property in a “Tuscan-Italian” style community that will average $750,000 per house.
