Kapok Terrace
Homes for Sale in Clearwater, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 5 closed sales in Kapok Terrace Add in Clearwater, FL since 2015, the most recent in March 2024. Across Clearwater as a whole, 1,267 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $315,000, 49 median days on market, with 393 homes for sale today. At that median and Pinellas County's FY2025-26 rate of 19.39 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,110 ($5,290 with the full homestead exemption).
Kapok Terrace 1st Add is a small pocket of just 35 homes, so this is not a market with deep comparable data at any given moment. The housing stock spans a wide build range, 1959 through 2016, with a median year built of 1969, which means condition and updates do more to separate one listing from the next than location within the community does.
With no price figure available in current MLS data for this community, the honest read is that pricing here has to be built listing by listing, weighing the age of the structure against whatever renovation work has been done. A high homestead share, just under 86 percent, points to a base of owner-occupied primary residences rather than a rotating rental or investment pool, which tends to support steadier upkeep across the block even in a market this small.
The 60-Second Overview
Kapok Terrace 1st Add is a compact Clearwater community of 35 homes with a housing stock rooted in the late 1960s but stretching into more recent construction, giving buyers a mix of original mid-century homes and newer builds within the same small footprint.

Who Kapok Terrace is best for.
Best for

- Buyers or sellers who value a base of long-term, owner-occupied homes over a rotating rental market.
Probably not for

- Buyers who need a wide, active pool of comparable listings to shop against in real time.

The Kapok Terrace buying strategy.
If we were buying in Kapok Terrace 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 Kapok Terrace.
A small footprint with a wide build spread
The defining fact about Kapok Terrace 1st Add is scale: 35 homes total. That means inventory turns slowly and any given listing can represent a meaningful share of what's available in the community at a point in time. Buyers should expect to move deliberately when something surfaces rather than assuming a steady rotation of similar homes.
Median living space runs 1,652 square feet, a size that fits a range of layouts without skewing toward large-format construction. Combined with the year-built spread, from 1959 up to 2016, the practical takeaway is that no two homes here should be assumed equivalent on condition or systems age. The community itself carries no identified shared amenities in current MLS data, so the appeal is the homes and the Clearwater location, not a common recreational or club component.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Kapok Terrace. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
