Sunrise
Homes for Sale in Gainesville, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
As of November 2026, the MLS records 171 closed sales in Sunrise in Gainesville, FL since 1990, the most recent in May 2026. Recorded prices since 2024 ran from $353,000 to $485,000 (median $435,000), on homes of 1,746 to 2,239 sq ft. Across Gainesville as a whole, 2,065 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $312,500, 49 median days on market, with 724 homes for sale today. At that median and Alachua County's FY2025-26 rate of 16.56 mills, annual property tax runs about $7,200 ($6,550 with the full homestead exemption).
Price here is driven by condition and vintage, not a single product type. With a median build year of 1984 and a span that runs from 1900 all the way to 2024, Sunrise is a mix rather than a cohesive subdivision, and that spread means two homes of similar size can sell well apart depending on updates, systems, and how much original fabric remains. The median living area sits right around 1,700 square feet, so this is a mid-sized-home market where a renovated kitchen or a new roof moves the number more than square footage alone.
Right now there are zero active listings and only a couple of closings in the recent window, so there is very little live inventory to read from. For a seller, that thinness can work in your favor on a well-prepared home. For a buyer, it means patience and readiness to move when something does list, because you will not have a shelf of comparable options to sit and compare.
Figures in this note are as of October 26, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Gainesville Plan Board recommends denying land use change for Cottages at Depot Park
The City Plan Board voted 4-3 to recommend denying a new land use and Urban 6 zoning for about 2 acres at the Cottages at Depot Park, which has about 37 existing units. The zoning would have allowed a drive-thru by right. The City Commission makes the final decision, and current zoning already allows redevelopment.
What it may mean for the marketThe outcome affects whether a small near-downtown parcel can be redeveloped at higher density with commercial uses. The project is about 6 miles east of Sunrise, elsewhere in Alachua County.

The Sunrise buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sunrise 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 Sunrise.
A wide-vintage market, not a floor plan
The defining fact of Sunrise is range. A build span from 1900 to 2024 means you can find early-century homes and brand-new construction under the same community name, with a median vintage of 1984 sitting squarely in the middle. That diversity is the opportunity and the homework: inspect carefully, because the age of the home in front of you tells you far more about likely condition and systems than any community-wide average does.
Listed amenities include a playground, a basketball court, and tennis court(s), reported across the community's MLS listings. Treat those as a starting point rather than a guarantee - access and current status should be confirmed with the HOA before you count on them. With a homestead share around 62%, a meaningful portion of these homes are owner-occupied, which tends to show up in how properties are maintained.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sunrise. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
