COQUINA BEACH
Homes for Sale in LONGBOAT KEY, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Coquina Beach is an old-line Tarpon Springs pocket where the housing stock does the talking. With a build range stretching from 1902 to 2023 and a median year built of 1975, you are looking at a mixed-vintage market where condition and updates drive value far more than any list price benchmark. Two houses on the same street can be a half-century apart in construction, and that spread shows up in how each one shows and how it's priced.
The homestead share here sits at 77 percent, which points to a market built on owner-occupied, long-held properties rather than fast-turning investment stock. That matters for buyers: inventory doesn't churn constantly, and when a well-kept home does list, it tends to reflect years of accumulated maintenance decisions, good or bad. Sellers should expect buyers to scrutinize systems and age closely given how wide the build-year range runs.
The 60-Second Overview
COQUINA BEACH market snapshot (as of August 2, 2026): the median sale price is about $635K ($244 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 74 days on market for closed sales.

Who COQUINA BEACH is best for.
Best for
- A buyer looking for a long-term, owner-occupied home rather than a quick-turn investment property, given the high homestead share.
- Someone comfortable doing property-specific due diligence on age and systems rather than relying on neighborhood-wide condition assumptions.
- A buyer who wants standard single-family square footage without paying for shared community amenities.
Probably not for
- A buyer who wants a community organized around clubhouse, pool, or other shared recreational amenities.
- Someone seeking a uniform housing stock where every home was built in the same era with similar systems.
- An investor expecting frequent turnover, given the high share of owner-occupied homes.
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 2 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($635K) IS the median in the snapshot above.
Windows contain 0 to 3 sales each (3 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on Stellar MLS data distributed by MLS GRID for the period 2004 through 2025. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The COQUINA BEACH buying strategy.
If we were buying in COQUINA BEACH today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in COQUINA BEACH.
A market defined by vintage, not uniformity
There is no single Coquina Beach housing type. The 1902-to-2023 build range means original-era construction sits within the same footprint as recent builds, and the median year of 1975 lands squarely in the middle of that span rather than describing most of what's actually on the ground. For a buyer, this means every listing needs its own read on age, systems, and renovation history — comps from one block won't reliably translate to the next.
No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so this is not a market oriented around shared recreational infrastructure. What buyers are evaluating is the individual home and its lot, not a clubhouse or pool schedule. With a median living area of 2,183 square feet, the size profile trends toward standard single-family living rather than compact starter units or oversized estates, but again, the age spread means square footage alone won't tell you what you're getting into on maintenance.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in COQUINA BEACH. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here

We walk buyers and sellers through that property-by-property, rather than leaning on averages that don't describe any one house well.
