Real Estate Listings & Community Guide
Laurel Lakes Real Estate in Sarasota, FL
Laurel Lakes homes for sale are located about 3 miles east of I-75 on Bee Ridge Road. This well-maintained gated community consists of about 291 homes on larger estate-size lots.

This had caused some negative publicity in the newspapers. In the years to follow however, these issue were resolved. Read more
