Poinsettia Park
Poinsettia Park is one of Sarasota’s most desirable “West of the Trail” neighborhoods, tucked away in the renowned “flower streets” where roads are named after blooms like Orchid, Magnolia, and Goldenrod. With a lush, mature tree canopy and quiet, friendly streets, Poinsettia Park is prized for both its character and location. Housing options primarily consist of single-family homes, with an appealing mix of lovingly preserved mid-century properties and stylish new construction on generous lots ranging in size from 1,200 to 4,000+ square feet. Most properties were built between the 1970s and today, offering variety in both architecture and price—from the low $600,000s for a smaller or older home, to over $4 million for a custom-built residence.
Residents enjoy the ability to walk to Southside Village, home to Morton’s Gourmet Market, boutique shops, and top local dining spots, while Siesta Key Beach and downtown Sarasota are a quick drive away. The neighborhood lies within the highly rated Southside Elementary School district and proximity to Sarasota Memorial Hospital adds extra convenience.
