2012 Ripon Drive, Clearwater is asking $459,000: 3 bed, 2 bath, 1,638 sf, built 1957, on 0.18 acres. 0.07 miles away, 1100 Canterbury Rd was bought for $432,000 in Apr 2026 and sold for $575,000 in Jul 2026, 94 days later: 1.33× on the recorded deeds. Same era (1958 and 1957), nearly the same size (1,654 sf against 1,638). It has been on the market 79 days, which is where sellers start listening. I will not put a number on this one on a public page. I will put it in an email, with the closings behind it, if you ask.
Why this one could follow
- The receipt: 1100 Canterbury Rd bought $432,000 (Apr 2026), sold $575,000 (Jul 2026), 94 days held, 1.33× — from the county record, 0.07 mi from this house.
- 79 days on market: this seller is negotiable.
- Flood zone X: outside the special flood hazard area, which keeps the insurance quote sane.
- Condition read from the listing photos: interior unseen (24 photos, exteriors only) — graded on price, photo-read 2026-09-08.
What I would check first
- The last three closings on this exact street, not the ZIP: I pull them from the record before any number gets written down.
- Whether the proven one was a cosmetic job or a gut: the permit history on the county record answers that.
- Roof, AC and electrical dates on the county permit record: they decide the budget more than the kitchen does.
- A written insurance quote before the offer, even in zone X.
The play behind this home: Your dated kitchen has fans. 56 of them, with cash.. More in Clearwater and Pinellas County.
