As of September 2026, Sunset Hills 2Nd Add in Tarpon Springs, FL has 2 homes for sale. Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-12, 3 recorded sales closed at a median of $379,000, $231 per square foot, a median 3 days on market, sellers accepting 100% of original asking (+3% versus the prior year). Homes listed or recently sold were built 1953 - 1985; 3 listings state no HOA; none of the 4 geocoded homes sit in a FEMA special flood hazard zone (median elevation 20 ft). At the median price and Pinellas County's FY2025-26 rate of 19.39 mills, annual property tax runs about $7,350 ($6,540 with the full homestead exemption).

Sunset Hills 2nd Add is an older, established Tarpon Springs subdivision with 603 homes spanning construction from 1901 to 2024 and a median build year of 1979. That range means condition and updates, not square footage or lot alone, do the heavy lifting on value here. Two homes on the same street can price very differently depending on whether the roof, electrical, and kitchen have been touched since the mid-century build era.
Right now there are zero active listings and only two closings in the recent window, so this is a thin, quiet market with almost nothing to compare against in real time. A seller has to price off recent closed activity and condition rather than what a neighbor's yard sign says, and a buyer who wants in has to be ready to move the moment something comes up, because there is currently nothing sitting on the market to negotiate against.

Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending September 12 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($379K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($367K) IS the +3.3% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 10 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 2013 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Sunset Hills buying strategy.
If we were buying in Sunset Hills 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.
Use your leverage. With inventory sitting, there is room to negotiate on anything dated or overpriced and to ask for repairs or a rate buydown.
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 Sunset Hills.
A Century of Building Stock in One Subdivision
With homes dating back to 1901 and others built as recently as 2024, Sunset Hills 2nd Add is not a single-era neighborhood. The median build year of 1979 puts the typical home solidly in the older half of that range, and the median living area of roughly 2,161 square feet suggests these are not small starter cottages but full-sized houses, many likely renovated or rebuilt over the decades to stay livable.
A homestead share of 74.1% tells you most owners have filed for exemption, which typically points to longer hold periods rather than fast turnover or investor churn. Combined with zero active listings and only two closings in the recent window, this reads as a stable, low-turnover pocket of Pinellas County where inventory simply does not come up often. No community amenities are identified from current MLS data, so whatever draws people here is the location and the housing stock itself, not a clubhouse or gated entry.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sunset Hills. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
