A mix of snowbirds and full-timers
In Jacaranda West, the Florida sun is dependable. “Here there’s a good mix of snowbirds and full-timers,” says Michael Gray, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker. Residents flock from up north to enjoy the reliable Florida heat in one of Jacaranda West’s many gated communities, each of which has its own distinct personality and amenities. Whether based in Heron Lakes, Meadow Run or Lake of the Woods, residents here are always a 6-mile drive from historic downtown Venice, or “Venice Island,” for all their shopping needs. There’s no shortage of golf courses here, and neighbors often bond while practicing their swing.
Residents can head over to the Jacaranda library for a good read.

Spanish-influenced homes in well-maintained subdivisions
Jacaranda West’s streets are lined with palm trees, and most of the area’s single-family homes are less than 30 years old and don Spanish-influenced detailing. Prospective buyers will also find ranch-styles and condo options here. Common to Jacaranda West are planned communities where prospective buyers can choose from a variety of housing styles. Average sale prices vary, but in the sought-after Heron Lakes community, single-story villas can sell for approximately $300,000. Most homes also include two-car ports and local roads curve around carefully-maintained ponds. Some properties come equipped with hurricane shutters, a protective measure against Southwest Florida storms. A few minutes south, in the Lakes of Jacaranda community, a three-bedroom property surrounded by mature fruit trees can sell for upwards of $600,000. Some residents even have their own pools, ideal for escaping the Florida heat or entertaining visiting grandchildren. Most planned communities also include Home Owner’s Association fees to cover shared facilities costs and property maintenance.

The Venice Village Shoppes and a historic downtown
The Venice Village Shoppes, home to a Publix supermarket, Joann Fabric and Crafts, and more, is just a couple of miles away from Jacaranda West via United States Highway 41. Nearby, locals can enjoy quick bites from chain restaurants like Panera, Outback Steakhouse and Skillets, which is known for its thick-cut smokehouse bacon. A few miles north, Detwiler’s Farm Market is home to locally-sourced produce, an old-fashioned butcher’s shop and even hand-dipped ice cream. Or for a classy date night and a wider selection of shops, make the quick drive to historic downtown Venice. Here, Gray says there’s no shortage of top-notch Italian restaurants. Head to a wine bar or sample gelato at one of the many spots located along Venice Avenue.
Jacaranda West residents head over to Skillets for a delicious breakfast.

The Jacaranda West Country Club and white sand beaches
Residents of Jacaranda West have prime access to Floridian staples: immaculate golf and pristine beaches. Open to members and the public, The Jacaranda West Country Club offers an award-winning 18-hole golf course where players can also take lessons from seasoned instructors. And of course, the white sand Venice beaches are just 9 miles west. Scan the waves for dolphins and, on rare occasions, manatees.
Within each gated community, residents have access to a unique list of activities. In Lake of the Woods, for instance, residents come together for yard sales, meet up in the clubhouse, or challenge one another to tennis matches on the community courts.
Or on a rainy day, families can attend a youth storytime at the Jacaranda Public Library or a “read with the dogs” session, an event where animals from the Suncoast Humane Society are also present. On Sundays, head to Wellen Park to watch the Venice Symphony perform a concerto free of charge.
Jacaranda West Country Club members can grab a lesson with one of many golf pros.

Spot wildlife at Alligator Creek Conservation and Recreation Area
In addition to golf courses and days at the beach, locals can also enjoy the more rugged pathways of Alligator Creek Conservation and Recreation Area. Look out for Red-Shouldered Hawks, bobcats and Wood Storks.
Interstate 75 and a small municipal airport
In Jacaranda West, it's not all that uncommon to spot residents riding their golf carts down the street. Locals have easy access to Venice Island which, along with its famous selection of shops and restaurants, is also home to a small municipal airport. The two runways are mainly used for privately owned aircrafts and medical personnel. “You’re in the middle of everything,” says Gray, pointing out the proximity of Interstate 75, which can take residents 50 minutes up north to the much larger Sarasota Bradenton Airport.
Nearby medical care at Sarasota Memorial Hospital
Sarasota Memorial Hospital, brand new and nationally ranked, is just 8 miles, or a short 15-minute drive away. As Coldwell Banker Realtor Jackie Robertson jokes, “You could even ride your bike to it.” The hospital is known for specializing in the fields of gastrointestinal surgery, geriatrics, neurosurgery, orthopedics, and urology.
