Paddock Trail market snapshot (as of June 25, 2026): the median sale price is about $477K ($267 per sq ft), with homes averaging 198 days on market and 6.0 months of supply, a buyer-leaning market (limited data). Based on 2 recent closings in live Stellar MLS data.
Paddock Trail is a gated single-family community in the Carrollwood area of Tampa, built between 1997 and 1998. Homes range roughly 1,549 to 2,220 square feet with up to three bedrooms, large eat-in kitchens, vaulted ceilings, and two-car garages, and many homes have private pools (homesbymarco.com, city-data.com, and lipplyrealestate.com, 2026).
The community carries low HOA dues and no CDD, which keeps the monthly carrying cost light relative to many newer master plans (homesbymarco.com, 2026). The gated, established feel and the pool stock are the draw, while the late-1990s build age means condition and updates vary home to home.
Location is a core part of the pitch. Paddock Trail sits near well-regarded Hillsborough County schools, such as Essrig Elementary, Turner-Bartels K-8, Hill Middle, and Gaither High, and near shopping and dining in the Citrus Park area and along the Veterans Expressway (lipplyrealestate.com, 2026). School assignment is by address and can change, so confirm the zoning for the specific home.
Because the Paddock Trail name covers homes with different pools, updates, and condition, the money is made or lost on the home, the lot, the low HOA, and the Carrollwood schools and location, not on a single community average. Confirm the HOA line and the school assignment per home.
