Windsor Park is an exclusive single-family neighborhood within The Meadows in Sarasota, Florida. Containing just 31 custom homes, Windsor Park stands apart from many other sections of The Meadows because of its exceptionally large homesites, spacious residences, mature trees, and private residential setting.
Developed primarily during the mid-to-late 1980s and around 1990, Windsor Park is legally recorded as The Meadows Unit 11. Homes are situated along a winding residential street with many properties occupying approximately one acre or more, creating a level of space and privacy that is unusual within a centrally located Sarasota master-planned community.
Windsor Park Homes
Windsor Park consists entirely of detached fee-simple single-family residences. Unlike neighborhoods within The Meadows built around more standardized floor plans, Windsor Park features custom homes that vary significantly in size, architecture, layout, and design.
Many residences offer approximately 2,700 to more than 4,000 square feet of air-conditioned living space, while certain custom properties are considerably larger. Three- and four-bedroom layouts are common, often with additional offices, dens, libraries, family rooms, or flexible living spaces.
Features may include high or vaulted ceilings, fireplaces, formal and casual living areas, large kitchens, multiple-car garages, expansive screened lanais, and extensive indoor-outdoor entertaining areas.
Private swimming pools are common, and many homes take advantage of their larger lots with outdoor kitchens, patios, gardens, mature landscaping, and wooded backyard settings.
Acre-Plus Homesites & Privacy
The generous lot sizes are one of Windsor Park’s defining characteristics. Many properties encompass approximately one acre or more, with some approaching two acres.
Mature oak trees, palms, natural vegetation, landscaped yards, and surrounding open space create substantial separation between many residences. Depending on location, properties may overlook wooded areas, preserves, ponds, golf-course land, or private landscaped surroundings.
This combination of larger custom homes and unusually spacious lots gives Windsor Park a different feel from the villa, condominium, and smaller-lot neighborhoods found elsewhere within The Meadows.
Fee-Simple Single-Family Ownership
Windsor Park is officially identified by The Meadows Community Association as a single-family section of the community. The 31 lots were recorded as The Meadows Unit 11.
Windsor Park homeowners own their individual properties fee simple and are members of The Meadows Community Association, which serves as the master association for the entire Meadows community.
Unlike many of the incorporated villa and condominium associations within The Meadows, Windsor Park does not have a separate neighborhood condominium association providing exterior home maintenance. Buyers should verify current Meadows assessments, architectural requirements, leasing rules, property-use restrictions, and other governing documents before purchasing.
Windsor Park Street & Neighborhood Setting
All 31 homes are located along the residential street named Windsor Park. The street extends from Longmeadow and curves through the neighborhood before ending in a cul-de-sac.
The limited number of homes, large lots, mature landscaping, and lack of through traffic contribute to Windsor Park’s secluded residential character.
