Arcadia Gardens sits in the heart of St Petersburg, a Pinellas County neighborhood where the pace is easygoing and the location does a lot of the heavy lifting — Tampa International Airport is about 26 minutes away and downtown Tampa roughly 27. Assigned to John M. Sexton Elementary, Meadowlawn Middle, and Northeast High, it draws families and buyers who want proximity to everything without the density that comes with living closer to the water. Nearby you'll find established St Pete communities like Shore Acres, Greater Pinellas Point, and Disston Heights.
The market here has a distinct split worth understanding. Of 11 active listings, 7 are new construction and 5 are priced above $1M, which pulls the median list price up to $999,900 — but the 12-month median sold price of $440,000 tells you the resale market is far more grounded. Homes are moving quickly at a 15-day median, and sellers are collecting about 97% of asking, so pricing is sharp on both sides. Buyers browsing St Petersburg homes for sale should expect to choose between move-in-ready new builds and more attainable existing homes.
Arcadia Gardens is a community in St Petersburg, Florida.

Arcadia Gardens FAQs
Is Arcadia Gardens a good place to live?+
It's a well-located St Petersburg neighborhood with easy reach to both downtown St Pete and Tampa — about 26 minutes to Tampa International Airport. Families are drawn to the John M. Sexton Elementary, Meadowlawn Middle, and Northeast High assignments, and the mix of new construction and established homes gives you options. If you like the area, nearby Disston Heights is worth a look too.
Is Arcadia Gardens expensive?+
It depends which end you're shopping. The median list price is $999,900 because 5 of the 11 active listings are above $1M and 7 are new construction, but the 12-month median sold price was a much more approachable $440,000. That gap means there's genuine range here, from a $299,000 entry point up to $1,475,000.
What do homes cost in Arcadia Gardens?+
Active listings range from $299,000 to $1,475,000, with an average of $423 per square foot on a median home size of about 2,875 square feet. Over the last 12 months, 51 homes sold at a median price of $440,000. Buyers comparing options often also weigh Winston Park in the same corridor.
How is the market in Arcadia Gardens right now?+
It's moving briskly — the median days on market is just 15, and sellers are averaging about 97% of their asking price. With 51 homes sold over the past year and 11 currently active, inventory is tight, so well-priced homes don't linger.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median property tax runs about $2,498 per year, which is reasonable for the price points here. HOA data isn't available across the current listings, so fees will vary by individual property — worth confirming on any specific home. Many resale homes in Shore Acres and surrounding pockets carry little to no HOA.
