Spring Creek Charter School

It's a fit for buyers who value space, water access, and a rural pace over suburban convenience, sitting on the edge of the Ocala National Forest. Sixteen of the 60 active Paisley homes for sale are waterfront, which tells you how much of daily life here revolves around the lakes and creeks. If you want walkable amenities and dense neighborhoods, this isn't that — and that's the point.

No — it's one of the more affordable pockets of Central Florida, with a median list price of $247,450 and an average of $240 per square foot. The range is wide, from $42,900 up to $2.75 million, so your budget stretches further on land here than in most of the region.

The median list price is $247,450, and over the last 12 months 113 homes sold at a median of $193,500. Median home size runs about 1,273 square feet, so you're often buying for the land and location as much as the house itself.

It's a steadier, more measured market — homes take a median of 51.5 days to sell, and sellers are getting roughly 94% of their asking price. That gap between list and sold price means buyers who do their homework have room to negotiate; check current listings on the live map.

Carrying costs here are low: the median HOA is just $3/month and median annual property tax comes in at $1,857. With almost no HOA burden and modest taxes, ongoing ownership costs stay well below what you'd see in gated Central Florida communities.
