What homes of your size have sold for in LAKE DENHAM ESTATES

The same recorded closings, split into thirds by living area. Find the row your home falls in: the $/sqft figure times your square footage is the recorded-sales bracket for homes like yours here — a starting range from real closings, not a valuation of your specific property. Smaller homes here have been selling at a higher price per square foot than larger ones ($205 vs $167) — the usual pattern, since lot, kitchen and baths do not scale with floor area.

At LAKE DENHAM ESTATES’s $288,000 median and Lake County’s adopted 16.65 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $4,790 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $4,120 with the full Florida homestead exemption — a buyer’s first-year figure; a long-time owner’s Save Our Homes cap can be far lower, which is one reason resale taxes jump at closing. Municipal and special-district millage varies inside the county; see the Lake County tax page.

Selling in LAKE DENHAM ESTATES right now: what the record says

Current asking prices run a median $315,000 against the $288,000 recorded sold median (+9%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 5.6 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 18% of LAKE DENHAM ESTATES’s listings are under contract, against 19% for ZIP 34748 and 26% for Lake County as a whole — the community is currently absorbing slower than its surroundings, which is negotiating information. Since 2021, 82 LAKE DENHAM ESTATES listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling (15 so far in 2026) — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 34% of LAKE DENHAM ESTATES listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2026 that rate was 58%. Momentum’s market-heat index for LAKE DENHAM ESTATES reads 17/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).

Cash bought 12% of recorded LAKE DENHAM ESTATES sales in the window ending 2026-06 (3 of 24) — a fact worth knowing before assuming every buyer needs an appraisal to close. With asking prices running +9% over the recorded sold median, a LAKE DENHAM ESTATES listing priced against the closed record above stands out against its competition; one priced against the asking crowd joins the statewide list of homes that never sold.
