How Sea Gate Club compares
From the county records
$1,725,000
Median of 8 recorded sales since October 2023, the middle eighty percent between $1,500,000 and $1,735,000.
17%
Of the 90 finished houses here carry a homestead exemption, which reads as largely second homes and seasonal owners.
Newest building completed 1973. 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.
At an estimated $20,000 a year in combined HOA and CDD, Sea Gate Club sits within a few percent of the Longboat Key median of $20,000, ranking 32 of the 62 Longboat Key communities whose fees this site tracks. There is no CDD assessment here, which is what keeps that figure down.

Is golf membership required at Sea Gate Club?+

Membership structures vary: some are required with the home, some optional, some sold separately to non-residents, and some carry a waiting list. Confirm which applies to the specific address, and the current dues, directly with the club before relying on it.

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 Sea Gate Club actually sold for?+

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 Sea Gate Club year round?+
17% of the 90 finished homes in Sea Gate Club 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 Sea Gate Club still being built?+
The most recent home the county records in Sea Gate Club was completed in 1973, across 91 platted parcels of which 90 carry a finished home. The county records no completions here in the last three years, so Sea Gate Club 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.
Does Sea Gate Club have an HOA or CDD fee?+
Sea Gate Club has an HOA fee estimated at $18,800 - $21,200 yearly, and the fee data for this community records no CDD assessment. That matters more than it sounds: a CDD is a bond repayment attached to the land and billed with your property taxes, so its absence is a permanent annual difference against communities that carry one. Figures are estimates and vary by home, so confirm them for the specific address before relying on them.
What flood zone is Sea Gate Club in?+
The flood zone recorded for Sea Gate Club is X / AE. Zones beginning A or V are the higher-risk categories, where a federally backed mortgage generally requires flood insurance, while zone X is lower risk and coverage is usually optional. Flood zone is assigned per property rather than per community though, and elevation can change both the requirement and the premium substantially, so get the zone and the elevation certificate for the exact address rather than relying on a community-level figure.
