Under Construction. Allegra Homes presents the custom-built Southside IV in Harbor Acres—one of Sarasota’s signature bayfront enclaves. Designed for elevated everyday living, this 5BR/4.5BA residence balances drama and comfort with a soaring great room, intricate millwork, and seamless indoor–outdoor flow to a covered lanai with summer kitchen and pool. An open chef’s kitchen with Wolf Professional appliances and stone countertops anchors the great room and dining area to create one cohesive gathering space. The main level offers a serene primary suite with expansive walk-in closets and a spa-style bath, a private guest suite, a dedicated office, and a bonus room that opens to the pool. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms are joined by a game room and loft for versatile living. Three-car garage on a large lot. Harbor Acres hugs Sarasota Bay just south of downtown—a long-established community known for convenience, comfort, and an elegant blend of classic and newer homes along beautifully landscaped, winding streets. Enjoy a short stroll to Southside Village (Morton’s Market, dining, and shops) and close proximity to Sarasota Memorial Hospital and Marie Selby Botanical Gardens; approximately 2 miles to downtown/bayfront and about 5.5 miles to St. Armands Circle, Lido Beach, and Siesta Key. Highly sought-after Southside Elementary School is roughly 1 mile away.

Heads up on that tax figure. On new construction, the number in the MLS is often the tax on the bare lot, not the finished home. Expect it to jump once the county reassesses with the house on it. How Florida reassesses new builds

CDD defaults to zero, and that is often wrong.Many Tampa Bay new-construction communities carry a Community Development District assessment of roughly $1,500 to $3,000 a year on top of HOA, and it is rarely included in a builder's payment estimate. Ask whether this address is in a CDD before you budget.
The tax figure in the MLS looks like a bare-lot assessment. It lists $11,550 a year, while taxing this purchase price works out closer to $95,850. On new construction the county reassesses once the house is finished, so budget from the higher number.

Get the real numbers on this homeWhat is negotiable on this home?
This listing shows real leverage signals. Here is what its own numbers say.
On the market 273 daysStrong signal
Past six months on a finished home means the builder has been carrying taxes, insurance, and interest on it the whole time. That cost is real and it is why concessions get easier the longer a home sits.
Still under constructionContext
The builder has money in the ground but no finished house to carry, so there is less pressure than on standing inventory. The upside is that some finish selections are usually still open.
Where builders actually give
Rarely on the published base price. It sets the comp for every unsold home behind this one, and protecting it protects their appraisals. The real room is in closing cost credits, interest rate buydowns, and upgrades moved into the base. Asking for the right one in the right order is most of the job.
