True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of September 2026, the MLS records 19 closed sales in Long Lake Estates in Hawthorne, FL since 2007, the most recent in August 2026. Across Hawthorne as a whole, 3 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $265,000, 53 median days on market, with 1 homes for sale today. At that median and Putnam County's FY2025-26 rate of 16.89 mills, annual property tax runs about $4,470 ($3,800 with the full homestead exemption).
Long Lake Estates is a tight pocket of 46 homes in Hawthorne, Putnam County. Construction here spans a wide range, from 1945 to 2024, with a median build year of 1995 — so the same short list of streets holds original-era houses next to recent infill. Median living area sits at 1,593 square feet, which keeps this on the modest end of the size spectrum, and no community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so whatever a given home offers is on that lot alone, not bundled in from a shared clubhouse or pool.
Right now there are zero active listings and zero closings in the current window, which tells you this is a quiet, low-turnover market rather than an active one. With a pool this small and no recent sales to anchor against, pricing a home here is more about the individual property — its age, condition, and size relative to the 1,593-square-foot median — than about pulling a tight comp set. Homestead exemptions are split evenly, half of the homes carrying one and half not, which is worth checking property by property rather than assuming.

Best for
- Buyers set on this specific 46-home enclave who can be patient, since there are zero active listings right now.
- Buyers comfortable underwriting a home on its own construction era and condition, given the 1945-to-2024 build range and no recent closings to compare against.
- Buyers who do not need bundled community amenities, since none are identified from current MLS listings here.
Probably not for
- Buyers who need to choose among active listings today — there are currently zero.
- Buyers who want a shared clubhouse, pool, or similar amenity included with the purchase.

The Long Lake Estates buying strategy.
If we were buying in Long Lake Estates 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 Long Lake Estates.
A small pocket with an uneven build history
With only 46 homes total, Long Lake Estates is small enough that no two blocks necessarily look alike. The year-built range runs from 1945 to 2024, and the median build year of 1995 sits closer to the middle of that span, meaning the neighborhood is a genuine mix rather than a single-era subdivision. That matters for underwriting condition and systems — a 1945 home and a 2024 home carry very different maintenance profiles, and buyers should expect to evaluate each property on its own construction era rather than lean on a neighborhood-wide assumption.
Median living area is 1,593 square feet, a modest footprint that buyers should use as their baseline when comparing any specific listing. No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so this reads as a market built around the individual home and lot rather than shared infrastructure. Ownership is evenly split on homestead status — half of the 46 homes carry a homestead exemption, half do not — which is a detail worth confirming on any specific address before writing an offer.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Long Lake Estates. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a 46-home pocket with zero active listings and zero closings in the current window, there is no shortcut through a stack of recent comps — pricing has to be built property by property, weighing where a given home falls in the 1945-to-2024 build range against the 1,593-square-foot median and its own homestead status. That is exactly the kind of thin-data, small-market read Momentum does for Northeast Florida buyers and sellers: getting in front of a listing before it surfaces broadly, or helping a seller price a home accurately when there is no recent local sale to point to.
