Maple Lakes sits within the broader fabric of Sarasota, a Gulf Coast community where lakes and green space shape the pace of daily life. It's a quiet, low-density pocket — the kind of place where you know your street and the drive to the beach or downtown feels easy. Nearby names like Lido Key, Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores, and the Rosemary District put waterfront, arts, and dining all within reach.
The market here is thin and worth watching closely. Right now there's a single active listing at $2,451,488, while the three homes sold over the past year closed at a median of $346,000 — a spread that tells you inventory swings hard between everyday homes and high-end waterfront. If you're buying, expect to move quickly when the right listing appears, and lean on comps beyond Sky Ranch and the surrounding Sarasota neighborhoods to price it right.
Maple Lakes is a community in Sarasota, Florida.

Maple Lakes FAQs
Is Maple Lakes a good place to live?+
It's a good fit if you want a quiet, lake-oriented pocket of Sarasota with beaches and culture close by. Lido Key, the Rosemary District, and Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores are all short drives, and the low-density feel is a real draw. Assigned schools include Kinnan Elementary, Braden River Middle, and Southeast High.
Is Maple Lakes expensive?+
It depends heavily on the property. The three homes sold in the past year came in at a median of $346,000, while the current active listing is a high-end waterfront property at $2,451,488. That gap means the neighborhood spans everyday homes and luxury outliers, so your budget can go a long way or push into the millions depending on the home.
What do homes cost in Maple Lakes?+
Recent sales tell the clearest story: a median sold price of $346,000 over the last 12 months. The lone active listing is priced at $2,451,488 and works out to about $948 per square foot on a 2,587-square-foot home — clearly the premium end of what shows up here. Comparing against nearby Sarasota listings helps set realistic expectations.
How is the market in Maple Lakes?+
It's a small, fast-moving market with just one active listing right now and a median 30 days on market. Sellers have been getting about 96% of asking on average, so pricing has stayed disciplined. With so little inventory, being ready to make a strong offer matters.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Property taxes here run a median of about $2,711 per year, which is manageable for the area. HOA data isn't available for the current listings, so confirm any dues directly with the seller or listing agent before you commit. It's worth budgeting for both when you compare homes.
