Uptown Tarpon Springs sits in the heart of Pinellas County's most distinctive coastal town, where the Gulf heritage of the sponge docks and Greektown shape the everyday rhythm. The neighborhood blends established pockets like Sunset Hills and Tarpon Shores with newer builds, and families are drawn to the walkable stretch of assigned schools including Tarpon Springs Elementary School. You're close enough to lean on Tampa for work and travel — Tampa International is about 42 minutes out — while keeping the slower pace of a Gulf-side town.
The market here is thin and worth watching closely. With just 2 active listings and a median list price of $681,400, inventory is scarce, and the two homes currently on the market are both new construction. Only 3 homes sold in the past year at a median of $610,000, with sellers collecting 98% of asking — so when the right home appears, you'll want to move with intent.

Uptown Tarpon Springs FAQs
Is Uptown Tarpon Springs a good place to live?+
It's a strong fit if you want Gulf-side town character with established neighborhoods like Crescent Oaks and easy access to the Greektown sponge docks. Families benefit from a clean run of assigned schools, and Tampa is reachable in under an hour for work or travel.
Is Uptown Tarpon Springs expensive?+
It sits in the mid-to-upper range for the area, with a median list price of $681,400 and listings currently spanning $599,900 to $762,900. Homes trade at roughly $305 per square foot, and the median sold price over the past year was $610,000.
What do homes cost in Uptown Tarpon Springs?+
Expect a median around $681,400 for active listings, with a typical home near 2,250 square feet. Both homes on the market now are new construction, so the current inventory skews toward newer finishes rather than older resale stock.
How is the market in Uptown Tarpon Springs?+
It's a low-volume, slower-moving market — only 3 homes sold in the last 12 months and the median listing takes about 103 days to go under contract. That said, sellers are getting 98% of their asking price, so well-priced homes still hold value. You can track new activity on the live map.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Property taxes run about $4,857 per year at current values, which is typical for this price point in Pinellas County. HOA data isn't available for the active listings here, so fees will depend on the specific community — something to confirm on any home you consider, such as those in Pine Ridge At Lake Tarpon.
