Life in Southwest Florida is getting better thanks to new communities such as Ashton Pointe Sarasota. As an exclusive gated community with cul de sac streets and only 49 single-family residences, Ashton Pointe is one of the reasons Sarasota County is considered one of the best housing markets in the United States.

The first attractive feature of Ashton Pointe Sarasota is its great location near Clark Road and Honore Avenue. This means that the neighborhood has easy access to I-75 as well as to the world-famous beaches of Siesta Key and their white-sugar sands. The neighborhood is surrounded by suburban comforts such as shopping plazas with supermarkets, drugstores, clinics, cafes, restaurants, and more.

The developer of Ashton Pointe, D.R. Horton, has brought a number of enchanting floor plans that range from 1,842 square feet to more than 3,800. A three-bedroom and two-bathroom home starts at just $475,000. This is a very reasonable price for the area. More upscale floor plans include five bedrooms and four full bathrooms in an elegant 6,300 square fee lot; these two-story homes can be negotiated under $1 million.
