Strawberry Crest High School

It's a solid fit for families who want space and a strong school pipeline while staying inside commuting distance of Tampa — downtown is about 29 minutes out. The area leans residential and newer, with feeder campuses like Colson Elementary School drawing buyers who plan to stay put. If you want suburban room without a long drive to the city, it delivers.

It's mid-range for the Tampa metro: the median list price is $554,900, but homes actually close at a median of $420,000, so asking prices run ahead of final numbers. Listings span from $190,000 up to $5,600,000, so there's genuine range depending on lot, size, and whether you want new construction.

Expect around $316 per square foot on a median home of 2,163 sqft, which frames the typical $420,000 sold price. Fourteen listings currently sit above $1M, but the bulk of the market clusters well below that, giving move-up buyers plenty of realistic options.

There are 100 active listings and 323 sales over the past year, with homes taking a median of 62 days to sell. Sellers are getting about 97% of asking on average, which signals a balanced market where well-priced homes move but buyers still have negotiating room.

The median HOA runs about $115 a month, on the modest side for a zone with newer subdivisions, and only a handful of communities here are gated. Median property tax comes in around $4,360 a year, so factor both into your monthly budget alongside the mortgage.
