Kensington Condo
Homes for Sale in Sun City Center, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Kensington Condo is a compact, mid-2000s condo community in Sun City Center, and the pricing here is driven more by condition and interior updates than by any big variation in the bones. The homes were built across a tight window (2004 to 2006), and the median unit runs about 1,934 square feet at a median of $277,500, or roughly $162 per square foot. With that kind of consistency in age and size, what separates one closing from the next is almost entirely how the interior has been kept.
The current posture is a soft one. Prices are down 5.6% year over year, but homes are still moving in a median of 25 days, so this is a market that is repricing rather than stalling. For a buyer, that combination means room to negotiate without a bidding war. For a seller, it means priced-right and shown-well still clears in under a month, but chasing last year's number will cost you time on market.

The 60-Second Overview
Kensington Condo market snapshot (as of July 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $278K ($162 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 25 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is down 6% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales (4 closings in the current window).
Kensington Condo is a community of 95 homes in Sun City Center, Hillsborough County, built between 2004 and 2006 (median 2005), with a median living area of about 1,934 square feet. 81% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
This is a small community — 95 homes total — of same-generation condos, and the high homestead share (about 81%) points to an owner-occupied, primary-residence character rather than a churn of investor units.
Who Kensington Condo is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a low-maintenance condo around the mid-$270s who value predictable, same-generation product
- Owner-occupants who want a primary residence in a stable, high-homestead building
- Value shoppers willing to trade a soft market for negotiating leverage on a well-kept unit
Probably not for
- Buyers who need more than roughly 1,934 square feet or a detached single-family layout
- Investors counting on near-term appreciation while prices are still correcting
- Anyone who wants a large, active resale pool — this is a small, thinly traded community

The Kensington Condo buying strategy.
If we were buying in Kensington Condo 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 Kensington Condo.
A condition-driven condo market
Because the units were delivered in a two-year span and cluster around 1,934 square feet, Kensington is about as apples-to-apples as condo communities get. That works in a buyer's favor for comparison shopping: differences in ask usually trace back to renovations, systems, and finishes, not to some units being fundamentally larger or newer. Read the updates, not just the square footage.
The 25-day median days on market says demand is real and functional, even with prices off 5.6% from a year ago. A thin closing window — four recent sales — means each new comp carries weight, so both sides should watch the most recent transactions closely rather than lean on stale data. Small communities move on small numbers of trades.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Kensington Condo. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value and not advice on a specific home; unlike an automated value estimate they do not price your home, they grade the community on evidence you can inspect. Composite is the plain average of the 3 factors (6.5). Basis: Recent Direction -5.6% year-over-year; Owner Commitment 81% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 95.1% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
In a community this small, a handful of recent closings sets the tone, and the spread between units comes down to condition. We track those comps as they land and price to the actual updates in a specific unit rather than a community average — which matters when the market is repricing and a stale number costs you weeks.
