Killearn Lakes Neighborhood Remains Popular for Single Family Home Buyers

April 2, 2008

Tallahassee and Leon County, Florida, offers a big variety of neighborhoods, in all price ranges and with various architectural styles. One of my favorites is Killearn Lakes Neighborhood in the north end of Leon County, with Lake Iamonia, one of the areas largest lakes, bordering the northern boundary of this community.

Killearn Lakes is a popular community with 2072 single family homes. Many of the homes are ranch style homes, in different forms, some traditional ranches, some more contemporary ranches. There are contemporary eclectic style homes, some traditionals, and some colonials. This neighborhood is too big to walk it in a short period of time. People are attracted to the neighborhood for the abundance of everygreen trees all over, nearby parks, quiet, but friendly streets, and affordable home prices. There are deer, fox, and an abundance of squirrels in the community. People are also attracted the elementary, middle, (both within the neighborhood) and the new high school, just outside the community. There is also an active boy scout troop that meets at a church in the community. There are several churches in Killearn Lakes.

As of today, 4/2/2008, there are  currently 81 homes for sale in this vast neighborhood, and the average price of a home on the market is, $274,224. Prices start at $169,900, and go up to $749,900, but the median price of the homes is, $252,500.

Recently, a new public sewer system was put put in for the lower part of Killearn Lakes and residents had a choice of connecting to public sewer, or staying with their septic tanks. To connect to public sewer costs about $10,000. Many residents selected not to connect. They can connect at any time, however, and new buyers will have that option.
