Palm River Estates sits on the western edge of Brandon, close enough to downtown Tampa for an 11-minute commute yet far enough to feel like its own low-key residential pocket. It's an established neighborhood of single-family homes that draws buyers who want space and a short drive to work rather than the newer master-planned feel of nearby communities like Providence Lakes or Heather Lakes At Brandon.
The market here is thin right now, which cuts both ways. There's just one active listing at $490,000, while homes that sold over the past year closed at a median of $365,000 — so you're looking at limited choice but real negotiating room if the right house appears. If nothing in Palm River Estates fits, it's worth widening the search to Brandon homes for sale or neighboring pockets like Brentwood Hills and Hickory Lakes.
Palm River Estates is a community in Brandon, Florida.

Palm River Estates FAQs
Is Palm River Estates a good place to live?+
It's a good fit if you want an established, residential Brandon neighborhood with an easy commute — downtown Tampa is about 11 minutes away and the airport roughly 27. Assigned schools include Palm River Elementary and Blake High School, and surrounding Brandon homes for sale give you plenty of nearby options for shopping and errands.
Is Palm River Estates expensive?+
It sits in the mid-market range for Brandon. The single active listing is priced at $490,000, while homes actually sold over the last 12 months closed at a median of $365,000 — so recent buyers have paid well below the current asking price.
What do homes cost in Palm River Estates?+
Expect prices around $211 per square foot for a typical home of about 2,318 square feet. The lone active listing is $490,000, and nine homes sold in the past year at a median of $365,000, so the realistic purchase range depends heavily on condition and size.
How is the market right now?+
It's slow and tight on inventory, with just one active listing and a median 213 days on market. That said, sellers have been getting 100% of asking on average across the nine recent sales, so well-priced homes still trade — patience and a sharp offer matter here. Comparing against Brentwood Hills can help you gauge value.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Property taxes run a median of about $4,650 per year. HOA data isn't currently available for the neighborhood, so confirm any dues on a specific property before you write an offer.
