TOCOBAGA BAY
LUXURY WATERFRONT HOMES
The waterfront homes in Sarasota’s Tocobaga Bay are not only energy-efficient and environmentally friendly but also some of the most luxurious, high-end homes in Florida’s southwest. Tocobaga Bay hasn’t always been the site of luxury real estate and spectacular waterfront homes. Today, its 10 lush and expansive wooded lots are the settings for several of Florida’s most luxurious mansions, but even a thousand years ago, the native American Tocobaga tribe recognized the land on Sarasota Bay as choice real estate. The bay offered manatees, crabs, mullet, shellfish, alligators, turtles, and other gifts of the sea, while deer and wild boar were hunted on the mainland. Burial mounds and other remnants of the Tocobaga were abundant when modern settlers arrived here in the 19th century. And despite its proximity to downtown Sarasota, this ancient land on Sarasota Bay just south of Whitaker Bayou remained entirely undeveloped until late in the 20th century.
YOUR GATED HIGH-END LUXURY COMMUNITY AWAITS YOU
Tocobaga Bay was created in the 1990s as the highest-end, most exclusive type of gated community. Developer Frank Cameron Lambert retained most of the majestic oaks and much of the neighborhood’s lush natural vegetation. He hired BSB Design, an award-winning architectural firm, to create plush, extra-luxurious, multi-story island Bermuda and Mediterranean-style mansions. Balconies, patios, skylights, and terraces are a part of every home here, and these mansions are energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. Every modern amenity and detail is included.
