Tampas North Side Country Club market snapshot (as of June 25, 2026): the median sale price is about $392K ($299 per sq ft), with homes averaging 23 days on market and 2.1 months of supply, a seller's market. Based on 28 recent closings in live Stellar MLS data.
Tampas North Side Country Club is an established neighborhood in the Forest Hills area of north Tampa, in the 33612 ZIP, built around a golf course that began in 1926 as the Forest Hills Golf and Country Club. The course, later owned by Olympic champion Babe Zaharias and now the public Babe Zaharias Golf Course run by the Tampa Sports Authority, threads through the neighborhood.
The homes are mostly ranch-style residences typical of established Florida communities, with a mix of newer, larger homes near the course, and access to several residential lakes such as Lake Eckles known for fishing. Because the neighborhood is built out, nearly every purchase is a resale, and condition and updates vary widely from house to house. Many homes carry no mandatory homeowners association; confirm any deed restrictions per address.
The appeal is the central location and the golf-course setting at an attainable price: the neighborhood sits just off I-275 with a direct route to downtown Tampa, and Busch Gardens and USF are close by. As an established north-Tampa area, confirm the flood zone for the specific lot and a current insurance quote, especially near the lakes.
For buyers who want an established, golf-adjacent home in a central north-Tampa location at an attainable price, Tampas North Side Country Club is a practical option. The work is reading the homesite, the condition, and the flood picture honestly and weighing the home against real comparable sales.
