PLACID HILL
Homes for Sale in APOPKA, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Placid Hill is an older Apopka pocket in Seminole County — the age range runs from 1930 to 2024, but the median build year of 1959 tells you the core of the community is legacy housing, not a subdivision from a single builder era. That spread is what drives value here: two homes on the same street can carry very different price tags depending on how much has been updated, so condition matters more than square footage alone.
With zero active listings at this snapshot and a median days-on-market of just 5, this is not a market where buyers get to sit on a decision. Recent closings have been few in number, which means pricing conclusions should be read directionally rather than as a tight statistical band — sellers should lean on comparable condition, not just comparable address.
The 60-Second Overview
PLACID HILL market snapshot (as of August 2, 2026): the median sale price is about $386K ($179 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 5 days on market for closed sales.
PLACID HILL is a community of 209 homes in APOPKA, Seminole County, built between 1930 and 2024 (median 1959), with a median living area of about 1,724 square feet. 65% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Placid Hill mixes homes built from 1930 through 2024 around a median vintage of 1959, putting most of the housing stock well into its history with pockets of newer infill. No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so the draw here is the location and the individual home, not a shared clubhouse or pool.

PLACID HILLWho PLACID HILL is best for.
Best for
- A buyer targeting an older Apopka home and comfortable budgeting for updates as needed.
- Someone prioritizing a modest, efficient footprint near the 1,724-square-foot median over a larger new-build.
- A buyer who wants to move quickly once a listing appears, given how briefly homes have stayed on market.
Probably not for
- Someone who wants a community with organized amenities like a pool, clubhouse, or shared recreation — none are identified here.
- A buyer needing a wide in-community selection to compare right now, given there are no active listings at this snapshot.
- Someone set on new construction as the norm — the median build year of 1959 makes this an older housing stock overall.
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 2 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($386K) IS the median in the snapshot above.
Windows contain 0 to 3 sales each (3 in the current window); every figure carries its sample size, and thin markets swing on single closings. Based on Stellar MLS data distributed by MLS GRID for the period 2011 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The PLACID HILL buying strategy.
If we were buying in PLACID HILL 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 PLACID HILL.
An older core, priced by condition
At a median of $386,500 and roughly $179 a square foot, Placid Hill sits in a price band where the condition of the individual home — original systems versus renovated, deferred maintenance versus updated — does more to set the number than location within the community. With a median living area of 1,724 square feet, most homes here are modest in footprint, so buyers comparing per-square-foot cost across listings should expect real variation tied to age and upkeep rather than size.
The homestead share sits at 65.4%, which points to a base of owner-occupied housing rather than a market dominated by short-term rental or investor churn. Combined with zero active listings and a 5-day median time on market, this reads as a community where available inventory does not sit long — when something list-worthy comes up, it tends to move.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in PLACID HILL. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
