Florida's Best Big Little City
Florida's Best Big Little City
For those in the know, there's Sarasota
Sarasota earns attention the quiet way. Not through hype, but through the life it actually delivers. Beauty and privacy. Cultural depth. Miles of waterfront with sunsets that become the best part of your day. And a pace that buyers from larger markets often can't quite explain -- only that they stopped looking the moment they arrived.

Bayfront condominiums. Beachfront residences. Private golf and country club communities. Modern waterfront estates. Established neighborhoods west of the trail. The lifestyle is polished, but unforced. For buyers arriving from New York, Chicago and Miami, Sarasota offers something increasingly rare. A city that overdelivers quietly, without asking you to compromise.

The Laughlin Tanner Group is Sotheby's number one team in Sarasota. Not only because of volume, but because of how we work. Every client receives direct, senior-level attention from inquiry through closing and beyond. We are discreet, exceptionally well-connected, and at home in Sarasota's luxury market.

For those in the know, there's Sarasota. And there's one team that knows it better than anyone. The Laughlin Tanner Group.

UNIQUE SARASOTA HOMES
Natalie and Andrew Tanner West of Trail Garden
The Tanner's Foodscape Garden
Featured in Southside Stroll Magazine

An edible, ecologically active garden designed on the principles of Biodynamics.
Andrew and Natalie Tanner's residence at 1731 Cunliff Lane is featured in this month's Southside Stroll magazine for its extraordinary front-yard foodscape. The street-side beds read like a winter farmers' market: cabbage, broccoli, multiple varieties of kale, spearmint and society garlic intermingle with Cuban oregano (also known as Mexican mint), cherry tomatoes, and the native Seminole pumpkin. An olive tree (whose fruit Natalie has learned to cure herself) and a stand of bananas round out the tropical provisions.

The Tanners have spent six years cultivating their foodscape. Natalie, who maintains this ongoing project, puts her philosophy simply: "I don't grow plants, I grow soil that the plants can grow healthy in."

Listed for sale by the Laughlin Tanner Group, this unique Sarasota West of Trail home at 1731 Cunliff Lane, is now available at a list price of $2,795,000.

The Kiss Statue in Sarasota
The Kiss that Became
the Soul of Sarasota

A prominent and popular landmark of Sarasota's bayfront.
Hundreds of thousands of visitors make the pilgrimage to Bayfront Park each year specifically to stand beneath it, pose in front of it, and feel something they did not necessarily expect to feel when they arrived. Veterans see a tribute to sacrifice and relief. Couples see a celebration of love. Children see something wonderfully enormous and slightly magical.

Rising 26 feet above Bayfront Park, the monumental Unconditional Surrencer (The Kiss) statue is far more than a photo opportunity. It is a frozen moment of pure human relief, a single kiss that captured the joy of a world stepping back from the edge of destruction. For Sarasota, it has become as defining as the city’s blue skies and arts-rich culture.
