You don’t have to venture too far from the Downtown Sarasota district to find waterfront real estate listings. Hudson Oaks Sarasota, a garden condominium community with just 16 units and its very own docking space, is located right in front of the Hudson Bayou, which means residents have easy boating access to the Sarasota Bay, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Gulf of Mexico. Best of all, the arts and culture attractions that Downtown Sarasota is known for are just a few blocks away.

As a community that was developed in the mid-1980s, Hudson Oaks Sarasota is well-established and highly desirable. This low-rise condominium features townhouse-style residences with two and three bedrooms, two bathrooms, large balconies, and panoramic windows that provide a nice view of the water. Each unit is a assigned a covered parking space, and the amenities include a swimming pool with a sundeck, outdoor grill, and the large pier that can be used for fishing, docking space, launching kayaks, or even sun tanning.

The tropical landscaping of Hudson Oaks is lush and mature; it features a few oak and banyan trees with thick canopies that provide ample shade. Since the community ends at a canal, surrounded by greenbelt spaces, there is an additional sense of privacy.

Floor plans in this condominium range from 1,168 to nearly 1,300 square feet. Many of the units have been upgraded with natural stone counters and designer kitchen appliances. Prices start around $500K in late 2024, which is pretty reasonable when considering that Hudson Oaks is part of the upscale Laurel District, and within easy walking distance from the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens. Property values are virtually guaranteed to increase thanks to the ongoing construction of nearby luxury condominiums where units are expected to be initially sold for a million dollars. Latest pricing will be found below if there is inventory.

With Siesta Key Beach about 15 minutes away, the Publix at Bay Isles Shoppes just down the road, Hudson Oaks offers an enviable location that makes it very attractive for all kinds of home buyers. For this reason, available listings invariably sell in record time.
