Sarasota Pool Homes features properties with private pools, appealing to buyers seeking outdoor living and year-round enjoyment.

Sarasota Pool Homes โ€“ Sarasota, FL.

Sarasota’s Gulf Coast weather draws out-of-state buyers north, and a pool sits near the top of most wish lists once they start searching. Here, pools usually come screened, or “caged” in local terms, functioning as a real extension of the home’s living space rather than just a backyard feature.

Coming home to sit poolside with a drink after a long day is part of the appeal that draws people here in the first place. Pool homes show up regularly across Sarasota MLS listings, so finding one rarely takes long.

Sarasota Pool Homes Frequently Asked Questions

Sarasota Pool Homes Real Estate


Is it worth buying a home with a pool?

In Florida, the demand for homes with pools is much higher than other parts of the country. A pool will increase the demand for your home with a large percentage of buyers.

How much value is added to a home with a pool?

This is tricky to answer. Historically, the national statistic indicates that home value increases about 7%-8%. However, in Florida, the demand and desirability for a pool from home buyers moving from other states is very high. Therefore, pools can bring more than 10% in our market.

How much does it cost to build a pool?

Pool prices have exploded in the past couple years. Many Florida homes have screened-in pool cages as well, which can add significantly to the cost of a pool. Pools are like automobiles, and there is a wide range depending on features, however a good starting point is about $60,000-$75,000 for an average Florida size pool and screened enclosure. We have seen pools exceed $150,000 as well.

Are baby gate screens which can be temporarily installed around a pool a county code requirement?

In Sarasota, a pool must offer child protection. Either a baby screen must be able to be temporarily installed when needed, or door alarms must be installed on any door which leads to the pool area. A homeowner does not need both, but should have at least one of the two protection measures.

What is a “salt pool”?

An electronic cell (electrolytic chlorine generator) can be installed on any pool. A pool owner will add salt to the pool occasionally. The electronic cell will convert salt into chlorine, which sanitizes the pool. A salt water pool is considered a healthier option for sanitizing your pool as compared to a traditional chlorine system. It is less harsh on your skin.
