Davista sits on the west side of St Petersburg, close enough to the water to shape the character here without pushing every price into the stratosphere. It's a walkable, established pocket where pool homes and the occasional waterfront property share streets zoned to Azalea Elementary, Azalea Middle, and Boca Ciega High. Compared with neighbors like Shore Acres and Greater Pinellas Point, it reads a little quieter, a little more settled.
The market today is thin and top-heavy: just nine active listings, five of them above $1M, which pulls the median list price up to $1,259,000 even though homes actually sold over the past year landed at a $620,000 median. That gap is the story for buyers — you'll see a lot of high-end inventory, but the transaction reality is more grounded. If Davista's price points feel tight, it's worth widening the search across St Petersburg homes for sale and neighboring areas like Disston Heights and Winston Park.
Davista is a community in St Petersburg, Florida.

Davista FAQs
Is Davista a good place to live?+
It's an established west-side St Petersburg neighborhood with pool homes, some waterfront, and a settled feel next to communities like Shore Acres. Tampa International Airport is about 37 minutes away and downtown Tampa roughly 39, so you're connected without being in the thick of it. Homes are zoned to Azalea Elementary, Azalea Middle, and Boca Ciega High.
Is Davista expensive?+
It runs high on paper — the median list price is $1,259,000, and five of the nine active listings are above $1M. But homes that actually sold over the past 12 months hit a $620,000 median, so the closed-sale reality is well below the asking headline. If you want more options at that price, Disston Heights is worth a look.
What do homes cost in Davista?+
Active listings range from $384,900 to $1,665,000, averaging about $454 per square foot on a median home size of 2,270 square feet. The median sold price over the past year was $620,000, which is the number most buyers should anchor to. Rentals sit around $2,875 a month.
How is the Davista market right now?+
Inventory is tight with just nine active listings, but things move — the median days on market is 27. Sellers averaged 95% of asking over the past 12 months across 27 closed sales, so it's a balanced, not frantic, market. Expect competition on well-priced homes and more room to negotiate on the $1M+ listings.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
There's no typical HOA fee reported for Davista, which is common for these established St Petersburg streets. The median property tax runs about $7,164 a year. Always confirm the specific figures on any home, since taxes shift with assessed value and homestead status.
