Fairview Estates is the kind of low-key St Petersburg neighborhood where the streets stay quiet and the commute stays short — Tampa International Airport is about 26 minutes away and Downtown Tampa roughly 27, so you get residential calm without cutting yourself off from the wider bay area. Homes here run modest in scale, with a median size around 1,636 square feet, and the assigned schools include Lynch Elementary, Meadowlawn Middle, and Northeast High. If you like the character of nearby Disston Heights or the water-adjacent feel of Shore Acres, this pocket sits comfortably in that same mid-city St Pete world.
The market reality is straightforward: inventory is thin, with just one active listing at $485,000, so buyers here are working with limited choices at any given moment. Over the last 12 months eight homes sold at a median of $388,250, with sellers collecting about 95% of asking — a sign of measured, realistic negotiation rather than a bidding frenzy. If nothing in Fairview Estates fits, it's worth widening the search to broader St Petersburg homes for sale or neighboring Greater Pinellas Point.

Fairview Estates FAQs
Is Fairview Estates a good place to live?+
It's a quiet, residential St Petersburg pocket with easy access to the rest of the bay area — about 26 minutes to Tampa International Airport and 27 to Downtown Tampa. Homes feed into Lynch Elementary, Meadowlawn Middle, and Northeast High School, and the neighborhood sits near well-known areas like Shore Acres. It suits buyers who want a calm, central address without a resort-style HOA footprint.
Is Fairview Estates expensive?+
It lands in the mid-range for St Petersburg, with the current active listing priced at $485,000 and homes over the past year selling at a median of $388,250. At roughly $296 per square foot, it's approachable relative to St Pete's waterfront enclaves like Bayway Isles. There are no $1M-plus listings active here right now.
What do homes cost in Fairview Estates?+
The single active listing is asking $485,000, while the eight homes sold over the last 12 months came in at a median of $388,250. Median home size is about 1,636 square feet at roughly $296 per square foot, so pricing reflects modest, right-sized houses rather than large custom builds.
How is the market in Fairview Estates?+
Inventory is tight, with just one active listing, and the typical home takes about 114 days on market — a slower, more deliberate pace than St Pete's hottest waterfront pockets. Sellers are getting around 95% of asking on average, which signals grounded pricing and room to negotiate. Buyers should be ready to move when the right home appears but won't face a frantic bidding environment.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
There's no reported median HOA for Fairview Estates, so buyers generally aren't looking at a mandatory community fee here. Property taxes run around $4,930 per year at the median, and if you're weighing a rental instead, the median rent is about $2,850 per month. Always confirm the exact tax and any HOA specifics on a given property before you write an offer.
