Homes for Sale in Howey in the Hills, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Stonehill is a community in Howey-in-the-Hills, Lake County, FL (ZIP 34737). Across Howey-in-the-Hills as a whole, 43 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $386,604, 76 median days on market, with 11 homes for sale today. At that median and Lake County's FY2025-26 rate of 16.65 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,440 ($5,770 with the full homestead exemption).
Filing two additional phases (84 and 88 lots) before Phase 1 has opened for sales is a strong signal Pulte expects sustained demand here, though it also means the ultimate size of the community is already largely mapped out even though pricing isn't public yet. The oversized, roughly quarter-acre lots and 2-3 car garages point toward a more spacious product than the smaller-lot new construction common elsewhere in Lake County.
The no-CDD confirmation from the builder is a real differentiator — CDD fees are common on new construction in this part of Lake County, and their absence here is worth factoring into any long-run cost comparison against Waterstone in Groveland/Mascotte or Lake Deacon in Groveland, both of which sit nearby.

The Stonehill buying strategy.
If we were buying in Stonehill 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 Stonehill.
Three phases filed, oversized lots, no CDD
Pulte Homes has Phase 1 development underway in Howey-in-the-Hills, with sales expected to start early 2027. Lots are oversized, roughly quarter-acre, with 2-3 car garages, a larger footprint than much of the competing new-construction product in Lake County. The builder confirms no CDD applies, which stands out in a market where CDD fees are routine.
Pulte has already filed an 84-lot Phase 2 and an 88-lot Phase 3, well ahead of Phase 1 even opening for sales, a sign the community's eventual scale is largely set. Planned amenities per the builder description include a pool and trails, with further amenities unreleased. Pricing and HOA dues are not yet public. Lake County Schools zoning should be confirmed directly. The closest comparable product is Waterstone in Groveland/Mascotte and Lake Deacon in Groveland.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Stonehill. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
