Homes for Sale in Gulfport, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Market Heat
Price here is driven by condition and lot far more than by square footage. With a median living area around 1,374 square feet and a median build year of 1957, you are largely buying older, modest-footprint homes on Gulfport land, and the wide age spread — from 1923 all the way to 2024 — tells you the median price of $491,250 masks a real gap between untouched originals and rebuilt or new construction. Treat the median as a midpoint, not a menu.
The current posture is briskly balanced. A median of 12.5 days on market and a heat score of 54 say well-prepared listings move quickly without pointing to a runaway seller's market. For buyers that means moving with financing ready and no illusions about long negotiation windows on the sharpest homes; for sellers it means condition and pricing discipline get rewarded, but the wide range of housing stock keeps the market honest.
The 60-Second Overview
Waterview Park Sec 1 market snapshot (as of July 15, 2026): the median sale price is about $491K ($379 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 13 days on market for closed sales.
Waterview Park Sec 1 is a community of 657 homes in Gulfport, Pinellas County, built between 1910 and 2024 (median 1956), with a median living area of about 1,419 square feet. 62% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Waterview Park Sec 1 is a compact, older Gulfport pocket in Pinellas County where a nearly century-wide range of build years means two homes at the same price can be very different properties. The $491,250 median reflects that mix more than any single home type.
Who Waterview Park Sec 1 is best for.
Best for
- Buyers comfortable in the mid-$400s to low-$500s who want a smaller, character-era Gulfport home
- Renovation-minded buyers who can price an older home by its condition, not the community median
- Owner-occupant buyers who value a stock held largely by residents over a rental-heavy pocket
Probably not for
- Buyers who need substantial square footage or a newer build as a baseline
- Buyers who want deep comparable-sales data before committing
- Buyers who need a long negotiation window, given how quickly sharp listings move
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For

The Waterview Park Sec 1 buying strategy.
If we were buying in Waterview Park Sec 1 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 Waterview Park Sec 1.
Reading past the median
The single most useful fact here is the year-built range: 1923 to 2024. A community that stretches over a century of construction does not have one price story, it has several stacked on top of each other. The median build year of 1957 confirms the center of gravity sits with mid-century homes, but the presence of very recent construction means the median price of $491,250 and the median of roughly $379 per square foot are averaging across originals, renovations, and newer builds. Judge each listing on its own condition rather than the community number.
About two-thirds of homes here carry a homestead exemption, which points to a stock held by owner-occupants rather than churned as rentals — worth knowing when you weigh how frequently comparable homes actually come available. With 476 homes in the section and only a handful of recent closings in the window, comparable data is thin at any moment, so pricing leans on judgment as much as on the last sale. That is a place where working the actual condition of a home against the median matters.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Waterview Park Sec 1. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
