Mission Valley Estates offers a rural feel near the Gulf Coast
Mission Valley Estates is a secluded neighborhood tucked into the rural landscape of southern Sarasota County. Homes sit on oversized lots on quiet, narrow streets flanked by a mixture of pines, oaks and palm trees. Residents enjoy space, solitude and freedom from HOA regulations. “There are not a lot of properties in the area that offer acreage, so that would be the main draw,” says Kristina Avens of Coldwell Banker Realty. “You’re not right on top of your neighbor, and that’s what a lot of people are looking for. It’s also zoned for horses, so that’s a big factor.”
Mission Valley Estates homes have large front lawns and backyards inisde the rual community.

Non-HOA homes feature spacious yards and pools
Housing consists of midcentury ranch-style homes and newer contemporary custom designs. Driveways and attached garages are standard features. Front yards are large, and back yards typically have in-ground pools. There are no sidewalks, and some streets remain unpaved, adding to the rural feel. Higher-priced luxury homes in a small subdivision are the only ones subject to HOA fees of $100 per month. Prices generally range from around $600,000 to $1 million-plus. Homeowners should be aware that the risk of flooding and wind damage is high during hurricane season, and insurance rates will reflect that. However, they benefit from lower property taxes in the unincorporated areas of Sarasota County.

Sidewalk sales and concerts are part of downtown’s busy calendar, and the annual two-day Sharks Tooth Festival is the city’s signature event.
