As of September 2026, Lakeside Hills in Florahome, FL has 7 homes for sale and 2 pending, asking from $155,000 to $987,000 (median $215,000). Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-13, 10 recorded sales closed at a median of $267,450, $214 per square foot, a median 59 days on market, sellers accepting 96% of original asking (+11% versus the prior year). Homes listed or recently sold were built 1968–2026 with 3 new construction; 9 listings state no HOA; 5 of the 18 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 110 ft). At the median price and Putnam County's FY2025-26 rate of 16.89 mills, annual property tax runs about $4,520 ($3,840 with the full homestead exemption).
Price here comes down to condition and lot, not the address. The median sits at $265,000, or $213.55 per square foot on a median home of 1,331 square feet — and that per-square-foot number has to cover a lot of ground, because construction ranges from 1947-built stock straight through to homes finished in 2024, with a typical build year of 1983. A buyer touring five listings in Lakeside Hills can expect five very different houses.
The posture right now is buyer-leaning: 12 months of supply against just 8 active listings and a recent window of only 8 closings, with the median home sitting on the market 49.5 days before it sells. That's a thin market where a single closing can swing the comps, so pricing and offer strategy both need to be built around the specific listing, not a neighborhood average. Sellers should also note the market has still moved — up 10.4% year-over-year and 47% since 2012 — even with supply this loose.

🟢 Still climbing. The trailing-12-month median ($267K) is up 11.4% from the prior 12 months ($240K) and up 49% since 2012. With about 7 sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending September 13. Confidence: Low (10 and 5 sales in the two windows).

Who Lakeside Hills is best for.
Best for
- Buyers comfortable evaluating older housing stock, spanning builds from 1947 to 2024, on a case-by-case basis
- Investors or non-owner-occupant buyers, given the community's 6.8% homestead share
- Buyers who want negotiating room in a 12-months-of-supply, buyer-leaning market
Probably not for
- Buyers who need a large, liquid pool of active listings to compare — only 8 are on the market
- Buyers who want a fast close — median days on market runs 49.5
- Buyers relying on a deep recent-sales comp set — this window reflects only 8 closings

The Lakeside Hills buying strategy.
If we were buying in Lakeside Hills 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 Lakeside Hills.
The Math Behind Lakeside Hills
Start with the numbers that actually move a contract. Median price is $265,000, working out to $213.55 per square foot on a median 1,331-square-foot home — a spread that reflects everything from 1947-built houses to construction finished in 2024. The median build year across the community is 1983, so most inventory falls in that older-but-not-earliest tier, and condition will do more to set price than year built alone.
Inventory is the other half of the story. With only 8 active listings against 1,089 total homes and 12 months of supply, this reads as a buyer-leaning market by the numbers, even though the trend line has moved up — 10.4% year-over-year and 47% since 2012. Median days on market runs 49.5, and the 6.8% homestead share signals a market weighted toward non-owner-occupied parcels, which affects how quickly a given listing gets attention. A market heat score of 53 puts Lakeside Hills in a middle band — not stalled, not overheated.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Lakeside Hills. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.

Why work with Momentum here
With only 8 active listings and a window of 8 closings to work from, there isn't a deep comp set to lean on — every valuation here has to be built listing-by-listing, not pulled from an average. Momentum's Northeast Florida team tracks the realmls feed for Putnam County directly, so we can flag a Lakeside Hills listing the moment it hits, price it against the actual comps that exist rather than a countywide blend, and negotiate from a position that reflects the current 12-months-of-supply, buyer-leaning posture instead of last year's numbers.
