Laurel communities
The various communities in Laurel all have some things in common. They are all off Laurel Road with direct access to I-75, all are a short drive to the beach, and all have central water and sewer and deed restrictions.
They differ in the age of the homes, the size of the homesites, price and the amenities they offer.
Laurel Woodlands
Laurel Woodlands is a family neighborhood not far from the Laurel  Road exit off I-75. From here it is only a five minute drive to Nokomis Beach. This private community of tiled rooftops is a little closer to Venice than Sarasota but either one is a short drive.
For daily services, Venice is handy. For special events  or a wider array of services and shopping, Sarasota is about 25 minutes away.
Students in Laurel Woodlands attend nearby Nokomis Elementary, Laurel Middle and Venice High Schools.
Since most of the homes were built in the  late 80s or early 90s, the lush tropical landscaping has had time to mature. You’ll see a canopy of trees and plenty of flowers along the sidewalks. Streets here are named for presidents like Truman, Eisenhower and Hoover and homes range from 1700 to over 2600 sq. feet.
Both the lots and the homes are spacious, giving the gated community a hometown feeling. A modest mandatory homeowner’s association fee includes a manager, common grounds maintenance, private road and reserves, which helps maintain the value of your investment.
Being outside of the city limits of both Venice and Sarasota, the taxes are a little lower since you are only paying county taxes.
Contact Roxanne or Shannon Moore if this type of neighborhood is what you need.
Laurel Hollow
Conveniently located between Venice and Sarasota, Laurel Hollow is a land condominium with 93 individually owned homes and lots. Everyone shares in the maintenance of common areas, community pool, lake, gates and nature preserves.
These maintenance free detached villas built in the late 1980s have larger rooms not found in today’s villas. Even three bedroom, two bath villas are available at Laurel Hollow, which is rare for villas.
Laurel Hollow is a quiet hideaway only one mile from Nokomis Beach on Casey Key and five minutes to I-75. Boating, outdoor activities and a state park are just a few miles away.
