St. Pete Heights

It's a central, low-key St. Pete neighborhood that trades flash for location and value, with quick access to downtown St. Pete and about 26 minutes to Downtown Tampa. Assigned schools include New Heights Elementary, Tyrone Middle School, and St. Petersburg High School. It suits buyers who want to be near the action without paying waterfront prices.

No — it's on the more affordable end of the St. Petersburg map, with a median list price of $339,950 and recent sales landing at a median of $315,500. Compared to premium enclaves like Bayway Isles, this neighborhood offers a much lower entry point. Average price per square foot sits around $332.

Current active listings range from $299,900 to $750,000, with the median at $339,950. Homes tend to be compact — a median of about 1,190 square feet — and the current inventory of 6 includes one pool home and one new-construction option. That spread means you'll find both starter houses and a few larger or updated properties.

It's a slower, steadier market than the St. Pete average, with just 6 active listings and a median 98.5 days on market. Over the past 12 months 22 homes sold, and sellers averaged 97% of asking price. That combination favors prepared buyers who can move on the right home while still negotiating.

There's no meaningful HOA presence recorded for the area, so you're generally not looking at monthly association dues here — unlike more managed communities such as Shore Acres. The median annual property tax runs about $3,964, though your exact bill depends on assessed value and homestead status. Always confirm the specific figures on any home before you write an offer.
