Market Heat
Hunters Run Ph 3 is a large-home community in Clermont, and size is the story here. With a median living area north of 3,100 square feet and a median around $725,000, the price is driven far more by square footage and condition than by any land-scarcity premium. At roughly $194 per square foot, buyers are paying for scale — this is a place to compare finishes and floor plans, not to hunt for a bargain footprint.
The market posture is tight. A median of 7 days on market against a modest year-over-year move of -0.7% tells you well-priced homes clear fast and prices have essentially held flat. With only 5 closings in the window, individual sales carry weight, so a single outlier can swing the read. Sellers who price to condition are transacting quickly; buyers should be ready to move and lean on comps rather than list prices.

HUNTERS RUN PH 3 is a community of 241 homes in LAKELAND, Polk County, built between 1972 and 2018 (median 1994), with a median living area of about 3,170 square feet. 85% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
This is a newer, low-turnover enclave of 206 homes built between 2013 and 2019, where the median home is a substantial 2016-vintage build over 3,100 square feet. A homestead share above 90% points to a community held largely by owner-occupants rather than investors.
Who HUNTERS RUN PH 3 is best for.
Best for
- Buyers with a budget around the mid-$700s who want maximum square footage for the money

Probably not for
- Bargain hunters chasing the lowest price per square foot

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 ($424K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($460K) IS the -7.9% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 15 sales each (8 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 2005 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The HUNTERS RUN PH 3 buying strategy.
If we were buying in HUNTERS RUN PH 3 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 HUNTERS RUN PH 3.
A large-home community that trades on square footage
The build window is narrow — 2013 to 2019 — so construction quality and systems are broadly consistent across the neighborhood, with the median home landing in 2016. That consistency helps buyers: you are comparing homes of similar age and scale, and price differences tend to come down to lot, finishes, and how a home has been maintained rather than fundamental era gaps.
With more than nine in ten homes homesteaded, turnover is low and inventory is thin. That supports the fast pace on market, but it also means selection is limited at any given moment. The single median price is the only reliable price anchor here; expect a wide spread around it depending on condition, and treat the small closing count as a reason to price and offer off recent comparables, not gut feel.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in HUNTERS RUN PH 3. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
