Live Oak is the kind of St Petersburg neighborhood where the pace slows down and the palette is residential — tree-lined streets, everyday errands close by, and easy access to the wider Gulf-side lifestyle that draws people to Pinellas County. It sits within reach of established communities like Shore Acres, Greater Pinellas Point and Winston Park, with the region's beaches and downtown scene never far. For buyers who want to plant roots in the city without the frenzy of the marquee waterfront enclaves, it's a practical, livable pick.
Right now the market here is measured, not manic. There are 12 active listings with a median list price of $574,950, and homes are taking a median of 69 days to sell — enough breathing room to tour twice and negotiate. Over the last 12 months 37 homes closed at a median of $358,700, with sellers collecting about 97% of asking, so realistic pricing on both sides is the norm. If you're comparing against pricier pockets like Bayway Isles, Live Oak reads as a value entry point into St Petersburg homes for sale.
Live Oak is a community in St Petersburg, Florida.

Live Oak FAQs
Is Live Oak a good place to live?+
It's a solid choice for buyers who want an established, residential St Petersburg neighborhood over a high-traffic waterfront enclave. Assigned schools include Northwest Elementary, Azalea Middle and Boca Ciega High, and you're near communities like Shore Acres. Tampa International Airport is about 33 minutes out, so the wider metro stays within reach.
Is Live Oak expensive?+
It sits in the mid-range for St Petersburg. The median list price is $574,950 with active homes running from $339,000 to $925,000, and there are currently no listings above $1M — so it's more approachable than the city's premium waterfront pockets like Bayway Isles.
What do homes cost in Live Oak?+
Active listings carry a median asking price of $574,950 and average about $338 per square foot, with a median home size near 1,988 square feet. Over the past year, 37 homes actually closed at a median sold price of $358,700, which tells you where negotiated deals have been landing.
How is the market right now?+
It's a balanced, patient market with 12 active listings and a median 69 days on market. Sellers are getting about 97% of asking on average, so both sides tend to meet close to fair value rather than in bidding wars.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
Property taxes here run a median of about $2,989 per year, which is modest for the price point. There's no meaningful HOA data reported for the neighborhood, and if you'd rather rent first, the median rent is around $2,325 per month.
