Bell sits in the quiet heart of Gilchrist County, a small farming town in North Florida where acreage, open sky, and easy access to the Suwannee River define daily life. Homes here lean toward manufactured homes and land, with a handful of single-family homes and even a few waterfront homes on the market — the kind of place where you buy space, not a subdivision address.

For a buyer today, the market is small and negotiable. With just 22 active listings and a median list price of $332,000, you'll find everything from a $64,900 fixer to a $899,900 estate, and homes are selling at 96% of asking after a median 46 days. If you're price-conscious, it's worth checking the just reduced listings and using browse by price to filter the entry-level end.

Bell real estate FAQs

Is Bell a good place to live?+

Bell is a good fit if you want rural, small-town North Florida living with land and river access rather than shops and traffic. It's part of Gilchrist County, with local schools like Bell Elementary and Bell High serving families. Expect quiet, space, and a manufactured-and-modular housing mix over dense subdivisions.

Is Bell expensive?+

Not by Florida standards. The median list price is $332,000 but the median sold price over the last year was $235,000, and listings start as low as $64,900. You can filter the affordable end with browse by price.

What do homes cost in Bell?+

Homes average about $240 per square foot on a median size of roughly 1,539 sqft, with active prices spanning $64,900 to $899,900. Much of the inventory is manufactured homes, though single-family homes and land are also available. The range is wide, so your budget goes a long way here.

How is the Bell housing market right now?+

It's a small, steady market — 22 homes are active and 54 sold over the past 12 months. Homes take a median 46 days to sell and close at about 96% of asking, so pricing is realistic and there's modest room to negotiate. Watching just reduced listings can turn up motivated sellers.

What about HOA fees and property taxes?+

Costs here are low. Median property tax is around $2,298 per year, and where an HOA applies the median fee is just $45 a month — many properties, being on their own acreage, have no HOA at all.
