Sarasota, Florida, wears its golf pedigree with confidence. The game’s roots here trace back to the late 19th century, when a Scottish-born businessman from Edinburgh helped introduce one of the nation’s earliest courses along this stretch of Gulf Coast. More than a century later, that legacy still shapes life, where manicured fairways and stately clubhouses are as much a draw as the region’s beaches and birdlife.
This home, just 15 minutes from downtown, is on the Founders Club, which is spread across 700 acres. At its heart is a Robert Trent Jones Jr. 18-hole, par-72 layout that stretches to 7,094 yards.
