At 528 Blue Shell Loop in Sarasota’s Wild Blue at Waterside community, a newly built home closed for $3,946,385 on August 3, 2026, placing it fourth on the week’s list. The transaction record shows four bedrooms, five baths, and a reported 4,000 square feet, with a recorded year built of 2026, meaning the home sold in the year it was completed.
