The Woods at Sylvan Lea New Homes for Sale | Sarasota FL | David Barr Realtor

I recently visited The Woods at Sylvan Lea, a new home community in Sarasota just east of I-75 off Palmer Blvd.

The Woods at Sylvan Lea may be just off the beaten path, but it's something new home buyers should know about.

You'll notice that the builder, M/I Homes, has left many of the old growth trees throughout the planned 41 new homes in the neighborhood.  There is a nice blend of craftsman and West Indies architectural styles, which helps eliminate the cookie cutter feel you might find in other new home communities.

Nearby attractions for The Woods at Sylvan Lea is the Celery Fields park, with hiking and biking trails.  It's about 10 minutes to Fruitville Road and access to I-75.  Benderson Park is about 20 minutes away, offering more trails around a 400 acre lake, which is home to international rowing events.

Although there's only one model home here, there's a wide range of floor plans, with 3 to 6 bedrooms up to 3335 square feet of living space, starting in the low $400,000's.  As your Sarasota new home sales specialist, I can show you completed model homes by this builder in other, nearby communities. Contact me for a tour.
