Market Heat
As of November 2026, the MLS records 3 closed sales in Westwood Ph I in Groveland, FL since 2024, the most recent in January 2025. Across Groveland as a whole, 649 homes closed in the last 12 months at a median of $375,000, 51 median days on market, with 236 homes for sale today. At that median and Lake County's FY2025-26 rate of 16.65 mills, annual property tax runs about $6,240 ($5,570 with the full homestead exemption).
Westwood Ph I is a tight, built-out pocket in Groveland — 161 homes, all built between 2005 and 2015, with the median dating to 2006. That narrow construction window means the housing stock is fairly consistent, and the median living area of roughly 1,900 square feet tells you this is a mid-size home community rather than a mix of small and large product. At a median of $379,900 and about $206 per square foot, price here is driven far more by condition and updates than by square footage swings, since the homes are close in age and size.
The market posture is moderate, not frantic. A median 32 days on market and a heat score of 58 point to a market that moves but gives buyers room to think. Values are up 8.5% year over year and 246% since 2012, so sellers have real equity, but the pace suggests you still price to the median rather than reaching. For buyers, the small size of the community means listings are scarce; when the right home appears, be ready to act, but you are not being forced to overpay.
Figures in this note are as of July 13, 2026. The live market numbers elsewhere on this page update nightly and are newer.

Westwood is a community of 210 homes in Groveland, Lake County, built between 2005 and 2019 (median 2006), with a median living area of about 1,923 square feet. 80% of parcels are homesteaded, the owner-occupancy proxy in the Florida DOR assessment roll (2025 roll, public records).
Westwood Ph I is a small, fully built-out subdivision of 161 homes in Groveland, Lake County, where a narrow 2005–2015 build era keeps the housing stock consistent and a high homestead share (roughly 80%) signals a predominantly owner-occupied pocket rather than a rental-heavy one.
Who Westwood is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a mid-size home around 1,900 square feet with a budget near the $379,900 median
- Owner-occupants who want a stable, built-out neighborhood rather than new construction
- Buyers willing to wait for the right listing in a low-turnover community
Probably not for
- Buyers needing to choose from many active listings at once
- Buyers seeking newer construction or homes well above the median size
- Investors counting on frequent turnover or a rental-heavy pocket
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending September 20 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($332K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($350K) IS the -5.1% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 12 sales each (6 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 2006 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The Westwood buying strategy.
If we were buying in Westwood 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 Westwood.
A consistent build era in a small community
The defining feature here is uniformity. With every home built in an 11-year span and a median year built of 2006, buyers are largely comparing similar-vintage houses around 1,900 square feet. That makes condition the swing factor: an updated kitchen, a newer roof, or an HVAC replacement will separate one listing from the next far more than lot or size will. Price the median accordingly — the $379,900 figure is your anchor, and the spread above and below it is a condition story, not a floor-plan story.
The homestead share near 80% matters for supply. A community that is mostly owner-occupied turns over slowly, so inventory stays thin and each listing carries weight. Combined with a 32-day median time to contract, that means well-prepared homes clear at a steady clip while overpriced or dated ones sit and signal. Sellers who invest in presentation and price to the current median tend to do best here.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Westwood. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Momentum Buy Score.
Our proprietary 0 to 10 read across the factors that decide how a home in Westwood buys, holds, and resells. Momentum Research; not an appraisal.
Momentum Intelligence Scores are our proprietary, qualitative assessment on a 0 to 10 scale, built from the record-level market data on this page. They are a framework for comparing communities, not a guarantee of future value and not advice on a specific home; unlike an automated value estimate they do not price your home, they grade the community on evidence you can inspect. Composite is the plain average of the 4 factors (8.0). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +202% since 2012; Recent Direction -5.1% year-over-year; Owner Commitment 80% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 98.9% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
In a 161-home community, the comps are few and the details decide the price. We know how to read condition against the median, position an updated home to earn its premium, and keep a buyer from overpaying when a listing is priced on hope rather than the data. In a thin-inventory pocket like Westwood Ph I, having someone watching for the right home and pricing it honestly is the whole job.
