8829 Daybreak Street, Sarasota, FL 34241 sits inside one of the most talked about master planned expansions in east Sarasota, and it hits the exact profile many buyers are actively searching for right now.

Built in 2024, this nearly new townhome gives you modern construction, modern efficiency, and modern design without the uncertainty of building timelines or upgrade delays. With approximately 1,238 square feet, this 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath layout is designed around real world living. The open concept main level creates natural flow between kitchen, dining, and living areas, making daily life and entertaining simple and functional. Upstairs bedrooms create privacy and separation, giving flexibility for guests, work from home, or long term lifestyle comfort.
Inside, you get clean lines, modern finishes, and contemporary systems that reduce near term maintenance risk. This is the advantage of newer construction that many buyers are prioritizing today. Predictable ownership costs. Efficient layout. Long term usability.

Located within the Skye Ranch Daybreak neighborhood, this section represents one of the most accessible entry points into the broader Skye Ranch community. Larger single family homes nearby command significantly higher price points, which makes this property a strategic way to secure a position inside the community without stretching into higher tiers.

The surrounding environment delivers what relocation buyers and local move up buyers both want. Preserved wetlands. Mature oak trees. Palm lined streets. Walking and biking trails. Community gathering spaces. All positioned near Clark Road and Lorraine Road for strong access to shopping, dining, daily conveniences, and Gulf Coast destinations without heavy congestion patterns.

Recent Daybreak Street sales confirm strong buyer interest while also reinforcing how important accurate positioning is in today’s market. Inventory for true newer construction townhomes in this price band remains limited, which is why properties like this tend to move when priced and presented correctly.

Primary residence. Seasonal hold. Long term investment. This property checks all three.

If you have been waiting for something newer, lower maintenance, and strategically located in a high growth Sarasota corridor, this is one worth looking at closely.
