WIND HARBOR
Homes for Sale in BELLE ISLE, FL
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Price in Wind Harbor is driven by the house itself, not a uniform product. With a build range spanning from 1948 to 2012 and a median vintage of 1979, what you pay tracks condition and updating more than address. The median sits at $633,000 with a median of about $276 per square foot across roughly 2,142 square feet of living space, but expect a wide spread underneath that number depending on whether a home has been renovated or left largely original.
The current posture is a market that has cooled off its peak. Prices are down 5.4% year over year, yet the long arc since 2012 is up 296%, so recent softness sits on top of a large gain. A median of 32 days on market means well-prepared listings still move at a reasonable clip. Sellers should price to the current reality rather than last year's comps; buyers have a little more room to negotiate than they would have a year ago, but not unlimited time on the sharpest homes.

Wind Harbor is a compact, established pocket of 144 homes in Belle Isle, where an older housing stock and a very high owner-occupancy share give it a settled, low-turnover character.
Who WIND HARBOR is best for.
Best for
- Buyers around the mid-$600s who want an established Belle Isle location and will judge a home on condition, not the sticker per foot
- Long-hold buyers who can look past a 5.4% year-over-year dip toward the community's much longer track record
- Renovation-minded buyers willing to take on an older home and use today's softer market as leverage
Probably not for
- Anyone set on new construction or a modern, uniform build
- Short-horizon buyers who need to sell within a year or two in a market that is currently softening
- Buyers who want deep inventory and lots of choices at any given time, given how few homes trade here
Price History: What Homes Here Have Actually Sold For
Median sale price over the trailing 12 months ending August 2 of each year, from record-level Stellar MLS closed sales. Same methodology as every appreciation figure on this page: the 2026 point ($633K) IS the median in the snapshot above, and the move from 2025 ($669K) IS the -5.4% one-year change.
Windows contain 0 to 7 sales each (4 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 2004 through 2026. Deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The WIND HARBOR buying strategy.
If we were buying in WIND HARBOR 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 WIND HARBOR.
An established stock, priced by condition
This is not a builder's subdivision with a repeating floor plan. Homes here were built across several decades through 2012, with the typical house dating to 1979 and offering around 2,142 square feet. That mix is the whole story on value: two homes at similar square footage can price very differently based on updates, systems, and finish, which is why the per-square-foot median of roughly $276 is a starting point for a conversation, not a fixed rate.
Owner-occupancy runs high here, with a homestead share near 86%. Combined with only 144 homes and a small recent closing window, that means inventory is thin and turnover is limited. When something well-located and well-kept lists, it does not sit; when a home needs work, the current softer market lets that show up in the negotiation.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in WIND HARBOR. 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 WIND HARBOR 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 (7.6). Basis: Long-Term Appreciation +296% since 2012; Recent Direction -5.4% year-over-year; Owner Commitment 86% owner-occupied; Pricing Power 95.5% sale-to-list. Refreshed with each data update.
Why work with Momentum here
In a small, condition-driven market like this, the median tells you almost nothing about your specific house. We underwrite each property on its updates, systems, and comparable sales rather than a blanket per-foot figure, and with a soft year-over-year read we help sellers price to today and buyers find where the negotiating room actually is.
