GRAND CENTRAL STA CLUSTER PH I
Homes for Sale in GAINESVILLE, FL

GRAND CENTRAL STA CLUSTER PH I market snapshot (as of August 2, 2026): the median sale price is about $310K ($185 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 41 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is down 8% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales (5 closings in the current window).

GRAND CENTRAL STA CLUSTER PH I is a community of 103 homes in GAINESVILLE, Alachua County, built between 1993 and 1996 (median 1995), with a median living area of about 1,612 square feet. 84% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).

This is a townhome community of 254 homes with construction spanning from 1916 through 2024 and a median build year of 1973, so unit age and updates vary widely from block to block. A homestead share of 57% points to a meaningful base of owner-occupied units rather than a market dominated by short-term rental turnover.

The span of construction years here, from 1916 to 2024, is unusually wide for a townhome community, which means due diligence on any given unit has to start with its actual build date and update history rather than an assumption about the neighborhood as a whole. A home from the earlier end of that range will carry different systems, structural, and maintenance considerations than one built recently, even if they sit on the same street.

With active listings at zero in this snapshot and only 4 closings behind the median figures, this is not a community where you can point to a deep, current pool of comparables. The median price of $740,000 and price-per-square-foot near $374 are useful benchmarks, but they are built on a small, recent sample. Anyone pricing a listing or writing an offer here should verify against the most recent individual sales rather than treating these medians as a firm ceiling or floor.

In a community with no active listings and a thin closings window, the value is in knowing which recent sales are genuinely comparable and which are not. We track this data closely enough to tell you when a median is a reliable guide and when it is simply the best available signal from a small number of transactions.

Confirm the current HOA dues, exactly what they cover, and any CDD bond or special assessment for a specific address before you offer.
