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 ($192 vs $157) — the usual pattern, since lot, kitchen and baths do not scale with floor area.
| Size group | Median $/sqft | Median sold | Sold range | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smaller homes 2,183–2,642 sq ft | $192 | $466,500 | $315,000 – $517,000 | 6 |
| Mid-size homes 2,727–3,046 sq ft | $189 | $530,000 | $260,000 – $750,000 | 6 |
| Larger homes 3,048–5,410 sq ft | $157 | $560,000 | $435,000 – $893,000 | 7 |
At LAKE IN THE WOODS PH I’s $480,000 median and Hernando County’s adopted 18.64 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $8,950 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $8,180 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 Hernando County tax page.
