Hempstead
Homes for Sale in Gulfport, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Homes listed or recently sold were built 1925–1955. As of September 2026, the MLS records 37 closed sales in Hempstead in Gulfport, FL since 2004, the most recent in August 2026. Recorded prices since 2024 ran from $160,000 to $575,000 (median $353,000), on homes of 720 to 1,980 sq ft. Across Gulfport as a whole, 197 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $388,000, 57 median days on market, with 73 homes for sale today. At that median and Pinellas County's FY2025-26 rate of 19.39 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,840 ($6,030 with the full homestead exemption).
Hempstead's pricing is driven by age and condition more than location premium. With a median year built of 1955 and a range stretching back to 1923, the housing stock spans nearly a century of construction styles, and a buyer's final number depends heavily on what's been updated and what hasn't. At $222.22 per square foot on a median home size of roughly 1,078 square feet, this is a market of modest, efficient floor plans rather than sprawling ones.
A median of 23 days on market signals a community that moves at a steady, unhurried pace — not stale, but not frantic either. Sellers who price realistically for the home's actual condition are seeing reasonable turnaround; sellers hoping to skip renovation and still command top dollar are the ones who sit. For buyers, that pace leaves room to do real diligence before writing an offer.
The 60-Second Overview
Hempstead is a small, established pocket of Gulfport built out largely in the mid-20th century, with 614 homes and a median price of $311,500. It's a community where the age of the structure matters more to the appraisal than any amenity package — because there isn't one.

Who Hempstead is best for.
Best for
- Buyers comfortable evaluating a home built decades ago on its own merits, not by a subdivision standard.
- Buyers working near the $311,500 median who want a smaller, efficient floor plan over square footage for its own sake.
- Investors or renovators interested in the spread between older original stock and more recently built infill.
Probably not for
- Buyers who want on-site amenities like a pool, clubhouse, or managed common areas as part of the purchase.
- Buyers who want a single, consistent architectural era or build year across the community.
- Buyers unwilling to budget for condition-driven repairs on a pre-1960s structure.

The Hempstead buying strategy.
If we were buying in Hempstead 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 Hempstead.
A Market Built on Condition, Not Concept
There is no HOA-run clubhouse or amenity list attached to Hempstead — current MLS data shows none identified. What you're buying here is the house and the lot, full stop, which means the sales price is a much purer reflection of square footage, updates, and lot condition than it would be in a planned community charging dues for shared infrastructure.
The homestead share sits at 56.5%, meaning a meaningful minority of the housing stock turns over as non-homesteaded property — investment purchases, secondary residences, or homes recently transacted. That mix, combined with a year-built range running from 1923 to 2019, means two houses on the same block can present very differently: one a restored original, one a modern infill or rebuild. Buyers should expect the price-per-square-foot figure to average out a wide spread rather than describe a uniform product.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Hempstead. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
