Gulf Gate, Sarasota, Florida

Gulf Gate is one of the most popular residential neighborhoods in Sarasota for a reason - it seems Gulf Gate is close to everything! If you want to be near great schools, golf, shopping, restaurants and the beach - its all here! 

The area is actually comprised of 6 "Neighborhoods" - Gulf Gate, Gulf Gate East, Gulf Gate Glen, Gulf Gate Manor, Gulf Gate Pines and Gulf Gate Woods. All of the neighborhoods are comprised of older homes in the traditional ranch style, on mature tree lined, winding streets that hearken back to neighborhoods of yesterday. Gulf Gate is well known for pride of ownership - although homes are older, residents have maintained their homes and landscaping beautifully.

As the price of ewer homes soared, Gulf Gate experienced a renaissance as Buyers moved into, and then renovated and upgraded, these homes. A non-deed restricted community, this neighborhood offers a lifestyle reminiscent of old Florida, while still within minutes of all necessary services and amenities.

Just a short bike ride away is the south Causeway to Siesta Key.  Driving across the causeway will take you only five minutes from anywhere in Gulf Gate, making this one of the most affordable neighborhoods in such close proximity to the beaches of the Key. Within minutes, you can be standing on the white sands of Turtle Beach, Crescent Beach or world-famous Siesta Key Beach.

At the Southwest Corner of Gulf Gate is a unique shopping area that is truly an eclectic mix of little galleries, eateries, crafts stores, gourmet shops, and specialty shops. With blocks of privately owned stores just waiting to be explored, this area makes for a fun day of treasure hunting.

William, this is a good desciption of Gulf Gate. I don't know if I have been there before, but I would like to go now. I have been to Anna Maria a couple of times and drove south through the keys for different adventures. So I think I have been nearby.

Thank you
