Firethorn
Homes for Sale in PARRISH, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Firethorn is one of the more concrete communities in this batch — it is actively selling, not pre-launch, with a published price range spanning townhomes in the mid-$200s up to single-family homes approaching $680K. That is a wide enough band that the townhome and single-family sections function almost as two separate products under one name, which the community's amenity structure reflects: two separate amenity centers serve the two sections rather than one shared clubhouse.
Zoned schools for Firethorn cannot be published here. The available data source for this community's school zoning contained a Texas school district reference, a clear data error, so no school names are listed. Confirm zoned schools directly with Manatee County Schools before relying on any source for this community.

Firethorn market snapshot (as of August 2, 2026): the median sale price is about $399K ($192 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 44 days on market for closed sales.

Probably not for
- Buyers who need confirmed school names before considering a community

The Firethorn buying strategy.
If we were buying in Firethorn 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 Firethorn.
Two amenity centers, one wide price band
Firethorn is actively selling in 2026 with a recently opened sales presence, offering both townhomes and single-family homes under Taylor Morrison. Pricing spans $219,999 to $677,899 overall, with townhomes starting near $256K and single-family starting near $309,999, across floorplans from 1,180 to 3,997 square feet. HOA dues run roughly $217 to $227 a month depending on the source consulted, and CDD runs roughly $1,120 to $1,680 a year depending on lot size — confirm both directly with the builder before closing.
The community's amenity structure is split by product type: two separate amenity centers, each with a pool, fitness center, outdoor movement studio, and pickleball, tennis, and basketball courts, serve the single-family and townhome sections independently rather than sharing one clubhouse. On schools: the school-zoning data available for Firethorn included a reference to a Texas school district, which is a clear error in the source material. No school names are published for this community — confirm zoned schools directly with Manatee County Schools before making any decision that depends on them.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Firethorn. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
