Ballentine Manor Estates is a compact pocket of Sarasota where the appeal is proximity — you're within easy reach of the beaches at Lido Key, the arts-and-dining energy of the Rosemary District, and the bayfront character of Indian Beach / Sapphire Shores. It's the kind of neighborhood buyers find once they know Sarasota well: quiet streets, a mix of homes, and water never far away.
The market here is thin and priced for it. With just two active listings and a median list price of $1,975,000 spanning a wide $750,000 to $3,200,000 range, this is a place where a single listing shifts the whole picture. Homes that do sell move at a reasonable clip — a 32-day median on market — so when the right property lands, decisive buyers win.
Ballentine Manor Estates is a community in Sarasota, Florida.

Ballentine Manor Estates FAQs
Is Ballentine Manor Estates a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who want to be close to Sarasota's beaches and downtown districts without living in the middle of them. You're near Lido Key and the Rosemary District, with pool and waterfront homes among the current inventory. It's a small, quiet neighborhood rather than a large planned community.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
It skews high, but with a wide spread. The median list price is $1,975,000, and active homes range from $750,000 up to $3,200,000, so the entry point depends heavily on which of the few listings is available at the time.
What do homes cost in Ballentine Manor Estates?+
Active listings average about $695 per square foot on a median home size of 2,639 square feet. Over the past 12 months three homes sold at a median price of $499,000 — a reminder that closed sales here can land well below current asking prices depending on the property. Compare it against the broader Sarasota market to gauge value.
How is the market right now?+
It's low-inventory and steady. Only two homes are active, homes take a median of 32 days to sell, and sellers are getting about 98% of their asking price — so there's little slack for lowball offers when something you want appears.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
HOA costs are minimal here, with a median of roughly $3 per month. Property taxes run around $6,666 per year at the median, which is the more meaningful line item to budget for.
