Over the recorded series, Wilds Plantation’s median sold price moved from $599,914 (2012) to $883,750 (12 months ending 2026-08-02) — +47% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2012 at $599,914. The 2020–22 run-up did what it did everywhere — Wilds Plantation’s median moved +16% from 2019 to 2022. Against the 2025 peak of $1,067,500, the current median stands at -17%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 3 to 17 closings a year (10-yr average 8.6). With roughly 8.6 closings a year, Wilds Plantation’s medians move in steps, not curves — a handful of unusual sales can swing a year, which is why the sales count sits next to every figure above.
What actually trades here: 100% single-family residence, with a median of 2,979 sq ft and a median price per square foot of $294 in the current window.
Of the 15 recorded Wilds Plantation closings since 2024, half landed between $758,000 and $1,067,500 (the middle two quartiles); the lowest recorded sale was $610,000 and the highest $1,350,000. If your home sits outside the middle band, the reason usually shows up in the size table below before it shows up in condition.
| Sold price band | Share of closings | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| Under $700,000 | 2 (13%) | |
| $700,000 – $850,000 | 4 (27%) | |
| $850,000 – $1,000,000 | 2 (13%) | |
| $1,000,000 – $1,150,000 | 5 (33%) | |
| None and up | 2 (13%) |
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 ($298 vs $273) — 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 2,526–3,000 sq ft | $298 | $830,000 | $699,000 – $937,500 | 5 |
| Mid-size homes 3,032–3,565 sq ft | $227 | $743,000 | $610,000 – $1,130,000 | 5 |
| Larger homes 3,687–4,977 sq ft | $273 | $1,100,000 | $1,000,000 – $1,350,000 | 5 |

At Wilds Plantation’s $883,750 median and Alachua County’s adopted 16.56 mills (FY2025-26), a home assessed at that price carries roughly $14,630 a year in property tax before exemptions, or about $13,980 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 Alachua County tax page.
Current asking prices run a median $839,382 against the $883,750 recorded sold median (-5%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 3 months of supply at the current sales pace. Demand check: 33% of Wilds Plantation’s listings are under contract, against 23% for ZIP 32605 and 24% for Alachua County as a whole — the community is absorbing faster than its surroundings. Since 2004, 211 Wilds Plantation listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling (1 so far in 2026) — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 37% of Wilds Plantation listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2025 that rate was 0%. Momentum’s market-heat index for Wilds Plantation reads 45/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
Cash bought 17% of recorded Wilds Plantation sales in the window ending 2026-06 (1 of 6) — a fact worth knowing before assuming every buyer needs an appraisal to close. Asking prices here currently sit -5% under the recorded sold median — sellers are pricing to move, and the closed record above is the number a buyer's appraiser will see.
