St James Park sits in the University Park area of Manatee County, an established pocket of larger single-family homes with pools and mature landscaping. It's an easy fit for buyers who want space and a quieter residential feel while staying close to the wider University Park homes for sale corridor, with nearby communities like Hampton Green and Wentworth rounding out the neighborhood.
This is a small, tightly held market — just two homes are active right now, both priced above $1M, so inventory moves slowly and options are limited. Homes here list around a $1,174,500 median and sit an average of 118 days before selling, which tells you buyers can take their time but should be ready to act when the right one appears.

Straight answers
St James Park FAQs
Is St James Park a good place to live?+
It's an established, low-turnover neighborhood of larger pool homes in the University Park area, which appeals to buyers who value space and stability over churn. Homes here are assigned to Braden River High School and its feeder schools, and you're within an hour's drive of Downtown Tampa. The trade-off is limited inventory, with just two homes active now.
Is St James Park expensive?+
Yes — it's firmly a luxury market, with a median list price of $1,174,500 and both active homes priced above $1M. The average price sits around $448 per square foot on a median home size of about 2,620 square feet. Buyers should plan for the $1M-plus range.
What do homes cost in St James Park?+
Active listings run from $1,099,000 to $1,250,000, with a $1,174,500 median. Over the past 12 months, three homes sold at a median of $1,435,000, so recent sale prices have landed above current asking levels. You can compare the current options on the live map.
How is the market in St James Park?+
It's a small, slow-moving market — only three homes sold in the last year and two are active today. Listings sit a median of about 118 days before selling, and sellers are getting around 97% of their asking price on average. That mix means patient negotiation is realistic here.
What are the HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA runs about $467 per month, which is typical for a maintained community of this size. Median property taxes come in around $9,040 per year, in line with the neighborhood's $1M-plus price points. Factor both into your monthly carrying cost.
