Ballentine Manor Real Estate in Sarasota, FL

Ballentine Manor homes for sale sit west of the Tamiami Trail, right in the widest stretch of Sarasota Bay. This exclusive waterfront neighborhood, named after 1920s real estate broker Frederick E. Ballentine, offers privacy through extra-large lots, mature tropical landscaping, and sweeping bay views throughout.

A mix of new and older homes make up the community, sizes and styles varying widely, with many sitting on oversized lots that include a private pool. Homes closer to the water tend toward newer construction with private boat docks and direct Gulf access, while those nearer the Trail run more modest. No through traffic keeps the neighborhood quiet, and Ballentine Manor sits just north of the museum district, minutes from downtown and the beaches of Longboat Key and Holmes Beach.
