Forest Hills sits in the gently rolling countryside of Hernando County, where established neighborhoods and golf communities like Southern Hills Plantation, Trillium, and Hernando Oaks share the same green, unhurried terrain. It's the kind of place families choose for space and calm, with kids zoned to Brooksville Elementary School and a commute that keeps downtown Tampa about an hour away when you need the city.
The market here is small and steady rather than frantic. There's just one active listing at $524,000, and over the past year only six homes sold, at a median of $470,000 with sellers taking home about 98% of asking. With homes averaging $312 a square foot and sitting around 99 days before selling, buyers have real room to study the numbers — browse Brooksville homes for sale or check the live map to see what's moving.
