As its name suggests, Hidden Oaks in Sarasota is a neighborhood that offers privacy and seclusion while still being centrally located in the Fruitville district, just west of I-75 and south of Bahia Vista Street, a short drive away from Downtown Sarasota and not far from the beaches of Siesta Key.
Development of Hidden Oaks dates back to the 1980s, a time when home buyers were interested in spec homes and custom-built estates. If you feel that gated communities and tract housing subdivisions are too “cookie-cutter” for your ideal lifestyle, you will certainly like the real estate diversity that Hidden Oaks has to offer. The single-family residences at Hidden Oaks are built in various architectural designs from Cape Cod to Key West and from Modern to Florida ranch-style homes. The properties and lots in this neighborhood tend to be larger, and they enjoy mature tropical landscaping that provides lots of privacy.
As of June 2018, a three-bedroom and three-bathroom home featuring more than 3,000 square feet of living space was listed under $500K at Hidden Oaks. Many of the homes feature long, private driveways; some custom estates that sit in lots larger than one acre have their own ponds, and it is not unusual to find properties built with extras such as wine cellars, walk-in pantries, covered swimming pools, detached workshops, vegetable gardens, and more.
Within Hidden Oaks, a residential enclave named Torreya offers larger properties priced around $1 million. Both Torreya and Hidden Oaks are exclusive Sarasota neighborhoods that are virtually impervious to real estate downturns; in fact, values have sharply appreciated in recent years.
Hidden Oaks is perfect for home buyers who wish to raise their families in a prosperous and convenient neighborhood. The mature canopy and the way the properties are nestled within meadows create a very refined and stately ambiance. Nearby attractions include the Bobby Jones Golf Club, Celery Fields Park and the Gulf Coast Big Cat Habitat. A Detwiler’s Farm Market is a very short drive away on Palmer Boulevard, and the Sarasota Crossings shopping center, which is anchored by Lowe’s and a Target store, is just a few blocks away.
