Keene Acres 1St Add
Homes for Sale in Clearwater, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Price in Keene Acres 1St Add is driven far more by condition and updates than by any single spec. These are older homes, with a median build year of 1960 and originals dating back to 1953, so what you pay tracks closely to how much work has already been done. The median sits at $472,500, or about $287.59 per square foot on a median footprint near 1,936 square feet, but expect a wide spread around that number depending on renovation level.
The posture right now favors sellers of clean, updated product. A median of 6.5 days on market is fast by any measure, and with only 4 recent closings the sample is thin — one or two outliers move the read quickly. Buyers should be prepared to act on well-presented homes and to underwrite dated ones honestly, since the discount for deferred work is real.

Keene Acres 1St Add market snapshot (as of July 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $472K ($288 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 7 days on market for closed sales.

The Keene Acres 1St Add buying strategy.
If we were buying in Keene Acres 1St Add 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 Keene Acres 1St Add.
An older stock that rewards the right renovation eye
With a median year built of 1960 and a range stretching to 1998, this is a neighborhood of varied vintages rather than a uniform subdivision. That matters for buyers: roof age, systems, and prior updates will explain most of the gap between one listing and the next, and the median price of $472,500 is best read as a midpoint across very different conditions, not a going rate for a turnkey house.
A homestead share of 78% tells you this is largely owner-occupied and held long-term, which typically means limited turnover and tightly managed inventory. Combined with fast days on market, that argues for having financing and inspection expectations settled before you write, because well-kept homes here do not tend to linger.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Keene Acres 1St Add. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
