How Lighthouse Point compares
From the county records
$10,800,000
Median of 4 recorded sales since October 2023, the middle eighty percent between $8,500,000 and $13,505,000.
31%
Of the 16 finished houses here carry a homestead exemption, which reads as largely second homes and seasonal owners.
Newest building completed 2013. The roll records no completions here in the last three years, so this is a built-out community rather than one still being delivered.
Arm’s-length sales recorded with Sarasota County, read October 2026. Quitclaims, foreclosures, family transfers and pre-construction sales are excluded. Homestead requires the property to be a permanent residence, so the share carrying one is a strong proxy for how many owners live here full time, not a census of them.

Lighthouse Point FAQ
How much do homes in Lighthouse Point cost?+

What kind of homes are in Lighthouse Point?+

As single-family housing, the roof, the exterior and the insurance on the structure are yours rather than an association's, which is the main practical difference from a villa or condominium. What a specific home includes, and what the association maintains, is set out in that community's documents and is worth reading before an offer rather than after.
What amenities does Lighthouse Point have?+
Lighthouse Point offers Gated private peninsula, Waterfront estate homes. Worth separating two things that often get blurred together: amenities the HOA maintains and which every owner pays for, and club or golf facilities that may require a separate membership on top. Which category each amenity falls into determines your actual annual cost, and it is set out in the community documents rather than in any listing.
What have homes in Lighthouse Point actually sold for?+
4 arm's-length sales have been recorded in Lighthouse Point since October 2023, at a median of $10,800,000. The middle eighty percent of those sales fell between $8,500,000 and $13,505,000, which is a better guide to the range than the extremes. These are prices recorded with Sarasota County, not asking prices, so they describe what buyers and sellers actually agreed. Figures read October 2026; quitclaims, foreclosures and family transfers are excluded.
Do people live in Lighthouse Point year round?+
31% of the 16 finished homes in Lighthouse Point carry a homestead exemption, which Florida grants only on an owner's permanent residence. That reads as largely second homes and seasonal owners. It is a strong proxy rather than a census, since an owner who lives there but never filed does not appear in it, but it is the most direct public signal of how occupied a community is outside the winter.
Is Lighthouse Point still being built?+
The most recent home the county records in Lighthouse Point was completed in 2013, across 17 platted parcels of which 16 carry a finished home. The county records no completions here in the last three years, so Lighthouse Point is built out and what trades is resale rather than new construction. Build year matters more in Florida than buyers expect, because insurers weight roof age heavily and it drives what a property costs to carry rather than just what it costs to buy.
