University Park sits in Manatee County where a country-club core sets the tone: manicured golf communities, tree-lined entrances, and neighborhoods like Hampton Green and Wentworth built around walkable, well-kept common areas. Nearly every home here is behind a gate — 34 of the 36 active listings are in gated communities — and most sit on or near the golf course, giving the area a private, established feel just a short drive from both Sarasota and downtown Bradenton.
For a buyer today, the market rewards patience: 36 homes are active with a median list price of $704,500, and the median listing takes about 98 days to sell. Over the last 12 months 87 homes closed at a median of $700,000, with sellers collecting 95% of asking on average — so there's real room to negotiate. Inventory ranges from around $229,900 up past $4.2 million, and you'll find everything from single-family homes to a handful of townhomes & condos.

University Park real estate FAQs
Is University Park a good place to live?+
It's a good fit if you want a quiet, established, gated setting with golf and mature landscaping. Most homes sit in golf communities with pools, and it's roughly 60 minutes to downtown Tampa and 70 to Tampa International. The tradeoff is that it's residential and club-oriented rather than urban.
Is University Park expensive?+
It sits toward the upper-mid range for the area, with a median list price of $704,500 and average pricing around $357 per square foot. There's real spread, though — active listings run from about $229,900 to $4,249,000, and eleven luxury homes are priced above $1 million.
What do homes cost in University Park?+
The median list price is $704,500, and over the last 12 months 87 homes sold at a median of $700,000. A typical home is about 2,110 square feet, and if you want something entry-level you can browse by price to see what sits lower in the range.
How is the market right now?+
It's a buyer-leaning market: 36 homes are active, the median listing takes about 98 days to sell, and sellers are getting 95% of asking on average. That negotiating room means it's worth watching what's just reduced before you make an offer.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Expect a median HOA of about $600 a month, which reflects the gated, golf-community setup here. Median property taxes run around $8,406 a year, and if you're renting first, the median rent is roughly $5,250 a month.
