The quiet stretch of coast

Tucked between Sarasota and Venice, Osprey and Nokomis are where locals go for coastal living without the crowds. Nokomis Beach and the north end of Casey Key deliver genuine old-Florida shoreline, Oscar Scherer State Park adds trails and kayaking, and the Legacy Trail runs right through — you can bike from here to downtown Sarasota or Venice.

Homes & prices

The mix here is wide: established neighborhoods with mature trees, boating communities along the bays and creeks, newer gated construction, and estates on Casey Key. As of 2026, inland single-family homes generally run from the $400s to the $700s, with waterfront and newer luxury communities climbing past $1M. It's also home to Pine View School, one of Florida's top-rated public schools — a quiet driver of demand many out-of-town buyers don't know about until I tell them.

Good to know

You're roughly 15–20 minutes to either downtown Sarasota or Venice Island, with Sarasota Memorial's Venice campus close by. Boaters love the easy Intracoastal access from Blackburn Point and the local marinas.
